p.s. yes i know the buildings are not color matched yet. i figured it would
be better to get the shape, then buy the parts verses getting the parts and
finding out it doesn’t work.

Hi Ondrew,
While your town and trains are excellent, what really strikes me about your
layout is the bequatiful landscaping.
I consider it the most accurate and interesting landscaping I’ve seen done in
Lego. I particularly like the way you work against the right angles in it and
use it as an example of what to do when I am designing my town stuff.

I really must thank Brian Williams of The Royal Train for the angled road idea.
Angling the road afforded me the room for added depth and interest while
challenging my mind at the same time. So far it has worked and kept me extremely
interested so it’s likely I’ll actually finish this project. There are a few
difficulties I hadn’t planned on now that I’m building buildings but all in all
I think it’s for the best since towns aren’t perfect, towns have wasted space
and oddly shaped buildings to fit the reality of the useable spaces and this is
making it fun.
I only wish I had help. I have until July to get it show ready. Ugh.
