Marcus 37 Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 Hi Peter The area around the bridge looks superb now. Thanks for the advice about using the PVA on the foam board. Have just started constructing the screening building on PDW using this method and though a little more patience is required due to the drying times Its worked nicely with no problems of warping. Cheers Marcus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post P.C.M Posted August 3, 2015 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 3, 2015 I have had an unexpected day off work today as I had the visit wifey in hospital. after picking up the daughter from the BFs house visiting the wife then dropping daughter to her friends house to study, which means talk to boys and do nothing. I finished tidying the mess in the garage, and took some pics. In between the rain I walked the pooch and put on the washing. So now I sit down and post up the pics. I am quite happy with the backscene which still needs more trees plonked along the back I also need to finsh the fields and put in a fence. I was thinking wire and post but might go with the stone wall from DAS which I have done on other parts of the layout. The layout still isn't running I just put the Rat and a few vans on the track to see what it would look like. Cheers Peter. 23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phill Dyson (onslaught832) Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Hi Peter I do hope your wife is well? The new section looks great Peter, I love the scenic break too, not many people would bother to continue to ballast under the bridge, but that makes all the difference to me.............very effective!

Thanks Rick. Leanne is ok, the problem is the underskin port for the Chemo and other drugs is infected so it's a case of antibiotics for the rest of the week. Cheers Peter.

Thanks Mate, I still need to work out what I want to do for the fence and sort out some static grass for the fields and plant some more trees. Leanne should be ok though still wont be on top form while the Chemo does it's work. Still planning on next year though so will have to catch up for sure. Oh No studying they watched South Park, Abbie is home now and found that a book she needed is at School so another friend came round and helped her out. Cheers Peter.

Jintyman Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Hi Peter, Wishing you both all the very best, I hope she's feeling much better soon. I agree with Andrew's comment, "Can't beat a Rat on the papers"!! Nice looking backscene, more trees probably would be a nice addition. Jinty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the backscene still needs a bit of work and certainly more trees. Cheers Peter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus 37 Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Fantastic scene of the rat on the paper vans. Very atmospheric indeed. Best wishes to your wife, Leanne. Hope she feels better soon.

All the best Marcus Thanks Marcus, Still a bit to do, but I haven't been out there this week as it's been cold a wet plus visiting Leanne in hospital each evening after work hasn't left me any time. All being well Leanne will come home tomorrow, but will have to go back for the next 5 days for more antibiotics. Cheers Peter. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
