Hello,

I added a new folder to my brickshelf account for the buildings I am working on
and planning on bringing to Detroit to show on the TCLTC layout in July.

It is here:

After finally managing to get a good look (with a quick spotlight) at these I
can finally comment :)

There's far too many lovely details for me to pick them all. My favourite bit is
the studs out on the sand red building. They work so well. I also really like
the dipping and rising row of studs forward 1x1 rounds above the door on the
light yellow building and what I can see of the first floor facade on the dark
orange and black one.

Thanks!  I'm really pleased with the sand red building, myself.  I wish I could
photograph black better.  There is some nice detail in the first floor facade on
the dark orange building.  Plus I was happy to use those huge windows as well.

I have to say you keep upping the standard with these things. Please stop it,
you make the rest of us look bad :)

Thanks. :o)   Without the community and being inspired by others . . .


PS. And what are the numbers?

Ah, those are building widths by stud.  John gave me a certain stud length that
I had to fill on his layout for NMRA. That is my way of keeping track of where I
am.  I wanted to build all new buildings for the show rather than bring things
from my layout that were already built.


Thanks again, Tim.

Jonathan
