Nice Work!

Very nice work!

Excellent...

...work Rick....even without any movement that place is a scary place to be around, no doubt, lol

Nice!!

It looks really good.

Beautiful...

You are a master with scenery and detail Rick.

Regards,

Love it

Nice job all the way around.    Can you post more of the fascia around your layout?  That looks pretty neat!!!!

Modeltruckshop - thank you!

I've got a thread with a video on my faux rusted fascia.  You can see the thread by clicking HERE.

Looking good Rick! Must have

Looking good Rick! Must have been a lot of work for you, what is it, about 20 square inches? You must be exhausted!

Still, it looks good !

Michael - LOL!

I was so exhausted after all that work that I had to take a nap.....really.......I did take a nap!

"Who's NOT a gooood boy...?"

"BAD DOG....BAD DOG..."  Love the sign!  Love the entire layout.  Fantastic work.

Looks right

Rick

it looks like the approach to a number of salvage yards that I have had to work. There also seemed to be a few pieces of scrap that had fallen from the cars and trash in the bushes at the locations I had the pleasure of dealing with. Keep up the great work!!

Would there be more brown in

Would there be more brown in reality from poor soils and pollution plus perhaps efforts to kill the weeds?

Very nice!

Nice work...And I love the rivets on your fascia! 

Peter, you are correct!

It wouldn't be as green as my present scene; however, I wanted to wait until the glue dried before doing some "browning".

Right On!

Your work and detail is right on and your answers, to questions from comments, are right on as well. You must be a "Right On" type of guy, even knowing when to take a nap.

I will surely check out your info regarding the fascia, I am very close to needing to consider all the options in that regard for my module layout for train convention setup. Info like yours and many others on the forum make this a gold mine for serious molders, thank you.

is he around...the junkyarddog and does Buck and Loretta mind the new neighboors?

Chuck - Buck and Loretta are

Chuck - Buck and Loretta are glad to have the salvage yard right next door as the can get some "new" stuff!

For sure!

Guys like Buck are always bringing home good "salvage" from the junkyard,

Such a great scene Rick, I hope I can do half as well as you have on my scrap yard to come.

Regards,

great work

You always do such incredible work. I'm sure Buck and Loretta love the view too.

Signs, signs, everywhere signs

Where did you get your signs?  And where's the dog?  Did he run off that bum sleeping on the couch?

Nice work Rick.

Sublime

This is quite sublime Rick. Actually, I like the contrast between the green of the approach and the barren yard.
Personally I would leave it the way it is.

The "Bad Dog" sign had me guffawing......

Great work.

Sound?

Seems like a dog ought to begin to bark anytime anyone nears the premises.

Sounds like a job for Arduino!

Regards,

Thank you Captain Mike!

I'm always glad to help out when I can.

Kevin, a neat idea!

I like the dog barking idea.  I could use a sensor that triggers the barking when cars are being pulled / dropped in the yard.

For my signs I downloaded them from the web, resized them, weathered them with my photo editing software, printed them, and mounted them on 10 thousands styrene before gluing them on the fence.

I do have a dog in the yard - but he is lazy and hasn't run off the bum yet.
