Thanks guys I picked up some blue today at home depot , Josh that tutorail is exactley what I'm looking for , and thats a great reference picture going from white to greyish to blue.:wave:

I have a pache vl and I take it out and just practice on paper , boxes and stuff that don't matter. I usually use dollar store paints mixed to the consistency of milk. Main thing I found is to clean it real good using thinner when I'm done by backflushing into the jar, and taking the needle out...

Wow that is one awsome build , who makes the kit, is it laser cut ?:mrgreen:

Bridges rule , looking great:wave:

I'm not sure how to ask but I need help and or direction to paint a backdrop on a bare white wall. First off I'm no artist by any means. I'm just looking to break up my tree line that borders around most of the layout , I'm not really even keen on clouds at least not right away. I just need...

Some fantastic modeling pics, keep up the great work guys , I'm enjoying the pics :thumb:

Wow amazing how those little lites lit up the downtown:thumb:

We all need a break once in a while. When I don't feel like doing much I run trains or sometimes just come in and read. I've been studying up on doing a back drop. I 'm hoping I'm not too far along for a backdrop ( painting, and I'm no artist ) I did the area in the corner of my layout with a...

That looks like one adventurous layout , I like it .:thumb:

There all really nice looking , hard to pick a favorite without running them on MY layout sign1 , any chance at that happening? Are they DCC ?

Wow 5 years in storage. They sure look like some nice cars, I could use a half dozen of them:mrgreen:

They look real good, were the pics taken with flash turned on or is that natural errrrrrrr in door lighting?:mrgreen:

As for risers you can use just about anything you can get your hands on and stack them make them one piece , basicly whatever works to keep a smooth rise and fall. I learned that I often over analized alot of what I was doing with making things, there's no right or wrong way its just what works...

Yes you can call me Lynn as most do just don't call me late for running trains :mrgreen: Well for cookie cutting 1/4" plywood is a bit thin. I use to think that the thinner the better for cookie cutting but then realized this was not the case. Some prefer even to use 3/4" for benchwork although...

Great idea keep the kids busy so the parents can shop errrrrrrr or did I get that backwards?:twisted:

Well you have a couple choices you can cookie cut method which basicly you cut a path probaly 2" wide ,for where the track and roadbed will sit on or you can use woodland scenic risers at which ever grade you prefer. I've tried both and really I think the ws risers are the simplest to get your...

This was suggested to me last year and is why I now have the type of layout I now have. I just went a bit extreme on the depths of the corners and ends, but its basicly what ever works for each of us :mrgreen:

Some really great contributions:thumb:

Congrats David , are you going to set up a modelrailroad in the store? :mrgreen:
