RMweb Gold BobM Posted March 16, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 16, 2022 (edited) Evening Whilst my tea has been in the oven have applied a coveting to the formed earthwork of the ramp.

RMweb Gold BobM Posted March 16, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 16, 2022 (edited) Evening Guys....... With the applied balsa wood sand and seal now dry and smooth, have added base colours to the surfaces of the track bed and ground surround the coal stage, the mortar colour has also been painted over the brickwork of the retaining walls..... Please stay safe and well my friends, I need you! Regards always, Bob Edited April 7, 2022 by BobM Reload images 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold BobM Posted March 18, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) Hi The plan is to cover the white earthworks with a light stone colour, then dry brush two further darker tones (made from the base colour) as the base tone. Over this it will then have grass scatter added to produce the vegetation. May perhaps add one or two ‘larger’ indications of bushy growth? Will keep you good guys posted.

RMweb Gold BobM Posted March 19, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted March 19, 2022 (edited) Evening......... After the application of a darker earth tone had drier, an initial layer of Woodland Scenics Blended Turf Earth Blend has been scattered over the earthworks of the ramp..... When dry will scatter a thin layer of lighter green to highlight one or two spots, then some rougher bushier growth where or if required? Will keep you updated.......

RMweb Gold lezz01 Posted March 31, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 31, 2022 Well I still have all my photos from Tewkesbury Bob so maybe I can upload them into the correct places on the thread. It might be worth asking Andy the mod about it. Regards Lez. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold BobM Posted April 3, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 3, 2022 (edited) Evening all... Hope all are well? Just a thought on the way ahead following the loss of much of the visual record of building Cambrian Street, rebuilding the imagery would take an awfully long time but is possible as all the images are stored on a cloud drive and there for rebuilding, however doing so would be a diversion from advancing the layout, so will be done slowly and overtime. What I will do is post images of the sections on the layout as they stand now for a base start for the future....hope that makes sense? Regards always, stay safe....

RMweb Gold lezz01 Posted April 3, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 3, 2022 I've done mine over the last 3 days Bob. But then I don't have 112 pages. It was a bit of a faff as the new server didn't like the aspect ratio of my photos and didn't orientate the photos correctly when I up loaded them so I had to change each photo before loading them. It wasn't hard to do it just took a bit of time. Regards Lez. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least loosing some of the images will hide many mistakes I've made eh?....😉 Bob Edited April 3, 2022 by BobM 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold BobM Posted April 22, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted April 22, 2022 Hi Guys..... Just to say that I haven't ceased work on Cambrian Street, far from it. However I have been somewhat distracted by the donation to Arley Station of a layout, from the family of the the late 'John' Smith.....I have become custodian of it here at home whilst it's future home and destiny are decided. In the interim I am hopefully repairing damaged and faded items whist it is with myself as we currently don't have room at Arley to display or work upon it safely, if you'd like to view 'Arley's' progress the link is here to follow...?

RMweb Gold BobM Posted July 3, 2022 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted July 3, 2022 Hi Guys Sorry for the silence on both forums.......here and Rebuilding Johns layout I have only just been discharged from hospital, after having a heart attack and undergoing treatment....

380John Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 It was a look at Taw Valley as Elizabeth II, and as part of it a bit of a chat with staff at the SVR. 37:40 is around the mark Arley is reached and I believe you are mentioned. Get well soon John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
