(...) It's big, it's cool, and there's lots to like. The roadway and parking lot, for example are really neat. Always glad to see people building mountains. Spotlighted! I have a couple of bones to pick though... Water isn't blue. I think it's much (...) (19 years ago, 3-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.org.us.indylug)

(snip). Is this going to NMRA? (...) Ok, I was watching a show on the Canadian midwest provinces around Banff the other day. That water is blue, and an amazing one at that. Now, if you wanna argue the clear brick for water--go to Lake Tahoe. Scott (19 years ago, 3-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.org.us.indylug)

snipped (...) Odd you should say this. I really like the look of the blue water cascading down the mountain and the way the light reflects off the sloped bricks. It's going to take a tall, tall mountain to really justify a snow cap. Wouldn't you (...) (19 years ago, 3-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.org.us.indylug)

(...) Whereas I like trans with blue underneath or transblue, I think it looks more like water, since water is transparent.

(...) Why is a "Disneyish" bad? You make it seem that non-real world accurate scene elements are bad and should never be modelled. I like the look of a "Disneylike" exaggerated scene, maybe that's why I like the Disney parks so much. -Orion (19 years ago, 4-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.org.us.indylug)
