(...) As long as the end result is good, I'm all for clones and even for the mixing of clone brands, though I admit that I tend to be brand-pure in any given MOC (despite my usual "can't we all get along" stance on clones). I seem to recall a very (...) (12 years ago, 14-May-12, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build, lugnet.trains.org.tcltc, lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) Another gorgeous clone brand! I love it! All good-natured snark aside, these really do produce a remarkably lovely scene. Terrific job on the trees themselves, and this new-colored foliage is a great addition to the palette!

Hi Matt / All, I am leaning on using the "commercial" style carpet with a very low loop mat. Unfortunately I know what you're talking about w.r.t. loosing pieces right in front of your eyes on the dirt hiding carpets! There is some reasonable cheep (...) (12 years ago, 9-May-12, to lugnet.trains)

(...) That looks like it was a fun show. What did you use for the street pavement in the city area? It looks simple, clean and nice - is it just paper? -Matt (12 years ago, 7-May-12, to lugnet.trains)
