Excellent vid Norm Thankyou! With the trains becoming so detailed it's only fitting the buildings and landscapes should follow. Yours makes the trains secondary. The dinner in "Nighthawks" was done by "Boomer Dioramas" on KZbin... another artist on a higher level. You people inspire us all to do better. Thanks again for all you do. 👍😃

Love the building. The faded painted fresh coffee billboard on the side is great. There’s a real building in my town. When they were stripping away the first layer of paint. They came across a billboard sign like that on the first layer. They left it and restored the rest of the building around it. Looks great. Your layout definitely has that old presence feel. Thanks for sharing. Ken

I'm with you, I like that residential holdout in the business district. It adds contrast and a sense of how things have changed over time, aka implying history. We had couple of those in my home town that lasted well into the 90's when some shady dealings made financing easier to get, and most were quickly torn down - though one did get relocated to a residential neighborhood. As for the video length, I don't usually have the time to watch something so long. But I really don't know how you could have cut the time down any more. Everything was so fascinating, I don't know how you could have left any of it out.

Very nice build !! Resin printers are such a game changer. I mostly do military modeling and dioramas, but what you can do is only limited by your imagination. Tinker CAD is such a quick and dirty program for the bulk of drawing up components but my goal is to get better at Fusion 360. You can detail out your parts so much better with soft edges radii and such. Well done sir !!!
