Thanks for the tip![tup] I just swept the layout room floor. Got some more ballast now!![:P]
Chuck, I think this would be a lot easier for us if you’d post a step-by-step tutorial with photos. I glued the cotton balls to the layout with the toothpicks sticking up, but something doesn’t look right. [%-)]
Next week: mountains in minutes from Depends.
You just modeled the “AFTER THE TORNADO” shot…
as for next week, will these mountains supply mountain spring water???
Yes, but I wouldn’t count on any white water rafting scenes. [:-^]
It’s the back end of the engine my siblings I and played on in the park near where my grandparents lived in Germany. Here are other shots. See the bottom of the page (last four or so images) at http://web.syr.edu/~pdverhey/eisenbahn/vorbild.shtml for more shots. I was really miffed when it disappeared (never hurt any of us to play around all those sharp rusty edges) but relieved to learn it was being preserved. The engine itself is an industrial tank engine that was used in the steel mills of the region.

Carpenter ants make great passenger car silhouettes. [^]
Hot glue makes wonderful simulated spider webs for those of you who don’t model in the basement where there’s a natural supply.
I save most of my cotton balls for this:
Works great on trucks, too.
I think I’d rather wax my face than continue to use that razor. Does it have sentimental value or something? [:D]
