Martin, The new plants are a great addition to the scene. That is a lot of bench work for one day; I guess it pays to have the right tools. |

Great work, Martin (and on the modules too). I'll have some retaining walls to build soon too. |

Like the others have already said, the retaining walls look great.

Little bit more work done on the farest corner of the module. Started on the bridge connecting the small town with the rest...



Can imagine already how it looks with more layers of grasses and weeds and the hills covered with trees... |

Been working on 2 things this evening. First I made a start on somekinda grassmaster tuftmaking device. Just took a piece of MDF I had laying around one side covered with a laminate and drilled tiny holes init. And some bigger ones for a countersink..then I hammered in some brass nails and connected them all with copperwire

A small nail on the side also attached to the copperwire for the groundclip of the grassmaster

So with this device ready it's time to try it out....adding drops of glue on the point of the nail


After that I planked the bridge, and did some work on the trussrods, added some support beams..


Like to add a small maintenance shed against one of the retaining walls and then comes the nasty job of adding NBW's... |
