Paul, That picture impressed me so much that I opened paintshop pro and practiced until I could do something similar. Here is the result. and for the steam lovers I did this [ 08 February 2001: Message edited by: Colonel ] [ 11 February 2001: Message edited by: Colonel ]
Hey Colonel, I'm cheating and asking the question here, but... I went to your web site and checked out your layout goodies and signed your guest book. In the passing I noted you have used MDF for your benchwork top. I am using the same material, except mine is a maple laminate to it ( a deal from a contracter who rescinded on a deal). Have you had any problems with it. I am planning to use AMI to lay track since the material is so dense. Any regrets?
Colonel, Looks like your pictures are not proportional in both directions, so that your engines looks elongated in one direction or another... Jean-Louis Simonet Visit traiN'ternet: http://www.trainternet.org/
Great photos guys! here is my favorite layout photo (again). Sorry if I've posted it before but that's how much I like it! Russ/NYC - The Hoffman Valley RR
Hi Paul, I didn't use paintshop pro, I used Freehand9, a unique freehand drawing package which I also do my trackplans in.
Paul, You are obviously one of those disgustingly creative types who is capable of turning garbage into art work... How I envy you...keep up the good work.
Thanks rsn48, It's taken me 64 years to get the best out of me and I'm still mad on trains, model or real

Here are my contributions "mirror lake" and "cabeese"... I have just taken all new layout photos of my layout... taken on my "SP's Newberg Branch"
That articulated is SUPPOSED to look elongated! Its 130 feet long. Bless your heart for posting something I understand! Now I feel at home again.
I really like the way that pond looks. Instead of having the ripple look like so many others, it has that very calm serene look with a great reflection. Good work.
