Hello folks,
I believe it´s time to show some achievements I´ve been making with my track on a new thread.
I hope you enjoy all stages of this build which is a very complex build, at least I think so,
then progress comes slowly, but never stops. I pay a little for my inexperience too..
Well thinking that way I have adopted Cervantes´ proverb "Fair and softly goes far" as the modelland project´s main philosophy.
Now let´s get technical,
Only after the track pieces were cut and assembled I realized I should have made it wide enough for some tail drifts.
So an extention has been added to the turn. I have also built the walls with two 3mm MDF strips so it could be bent.
Fencing and lighting will go soon. But one step comes after the other.
The Barbican building has been levelled down to the track surface so it gets on the scale.
The tudor house will also be lowered. The hill climb can be spotted very far from the camera.
A nice turn next to the tudor house
A fast bend at the slopes of the hill.
More turns and elevations
some columns still need to be cut
First gear?
Now we got on top of it. 70cm higher than the village level.
A light at the end of the tunnel...
This is the village centre...at least where it will grow.
well, thanks for following my track.
I hope you enjoy it. Any comments are most welcome!
