Hi. I have the same Metcalfe kits whilst construction I added interior walls allowing for 4 different rooms to be illuminated. I like the idea of moss on the roof. I've ordered a pack of climbing roses and daffodils for the garden from Hattons. Thanks for sharing 👍

Dinmore Junction sounds good great idea

I like the way you've put Moss on the Cottage roof it has really aged the cottages I have bought two cottages for my layout hopefully I will be able to weather then cheers

[@terraherb2712]

thanks for this, I was seriously considering buying the more pricy plastic kits but this alone has changed my mind

[@peaks4719]

Nice one il check it out

[@Andy-SharlstonEastgate]

The mossy roofs look ace Sam, nice touch as the metcalfe stuff is always too "clean". Is that the cat litter/pva dry stone wall technique? Andy

[@peaks4719]

Sharlston Eastgate thanks yes mate it’s in one of my videos hills roads and groundworks part 3 I think?

[@Parkendnorth]

[@dave1001]

as an alternative you could have stuck some small bushes down

[@chrish.8241]

Some great tips thanks. Sorry if I missed it in the video, but do you 'protect' the card in anyway before adding the details? Thanks.

[@peaks4719]

I havnt done but you could try some Matt lacquer maybe in a corner Incase it frosts it
