Details really do make the difference. I added fisherman, a couple childred, and some deer to bring this scene to life:

I agree. The fishermen add a lot. The kids are hard to see in the photo.

Mr. B,

You are quite right, the kids are hard to see. Here’s a close up:

Nice shot! At first glance I did not notice that this was a double track arrangement and thought the caboose was levitating down the rails!!

They sure do, Nick. All of a sudden the scene comes to ‘life’!

BTW, that’s some goodlookin’ rock formations you have there also. Are they made with rubber molds?

Thanks guys.

Jarrell, I used WS rubber molds and plaster of paris for the rock formations. The one behind the D&H caboose is the same mold tilted a couple different ways. The outcropping on the right is two molds repeated at different angles. And I think the outcropping below the bridge, is left over pieces from the other two formations.
