An Industrial Narrow Gauge Adventure - More detail



Regular followers of this Blog will know that I have been working on an industrial narrow gauge railway layout built to 1:27.7 scale or 11mm = 1 foot. The choice of such an unusual scale has meant that much if not all items needed for the layout have had to be heavily modified and/or converted from existing models, completely 'scratch built' or sculpted by me.

In these latest posts I will update the Blog with 'work-in-progress' images and text showing how the initial project is developing. For more information look out for the Narrow Gauge Labels to the right.

I am continuing to add small details and foliage to the layout, but the main reason for this update is the Aqua Magic canal basin. I have added yet another layer of Aqua Magic and I now think that the canal basin looks like real water with a liquid shine. These top down images show what I mean.


In addition there are even more items of clutter added to the piles either side of the main building however, the workmen figures are unattached - as I am still playing with what will be their final positioning.

For larger images just 'click' on the pictures.

Fantastic work. Just a thought, are you going to add some scummy/rusty water inside the Salt Tank?
