In addition to meeting lots of builders I admire and getting tons of inspiration
to build, my trip to NMRA in Philly enabled me to pick-up the bricks I needed to
complete this street on my layout.

Uh, are those hookers?
:D

Very nice work.  I love the contouring of the dumptruck.  And the use of 1x1
tiles on the corners of the yellow building to simulate shoddy/rotting brickwork
is brilliant.  Again, very nice work.

Thanks very much.  I really would have liked the tiles to me light yellow as
well, but to my knowledge they are not available.  I then was going to use dark
bley (because I had them) but I thought they'd be to dark.  I ended up with the
light bley and really like how it came out.

And, yes to your first question.  Maybe I strive for to much realism . . .


Thanks for posting.

Best,

Jonathan
