  Re: A lil' Mountain with10 Tunnel Portals
 
Brian, That's a great mountain & layout. I can see kids' eyes popping and jaws dropping. It looks like you used some scale compression on the mountain slopes to make it appear taller - is that right? Try taking some pics from a kid's approximate eye (...) (21 years ago, 3-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.org.us.indylug)
