Warning, a bit rambly post on the theory of realistic building scenes. (...) They (the MichLUG buildings) were stunning buildings but I think they suffered from not being close enough together. Anything 5 stories or more ought to be cheek to jowl (...) (24 years ago, 13-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains.org)

Steve & All, (...) Indeed. At our show at GATS here in Michigan, we had some interestig things, huge buildings by Chris Leach, and some LEGO scale buildings as well.

John proportionality is important, but I don't think your buildings are too large. Perhaps their layout is too small??? :-) Actually the best look is what I call the "cluster look". It looks better if you have large structures in groupings. Say 3 (...) (24 years ago, 13-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains.org)
