Now there's a diorama that might have taken a couple of hours to complete! Nice job.

You scenery builders are just incredible. I'm still reeling from Jacq's work and now there are two of you! I forgot Chuck, three of you. I think I'm going to go sit in a corner and sharpen my mill cutters.

Very nice build on a Southrivermodelworks Kit.  Looks right at home with the western theme very realistic water and and nice details with the wood you added to give it that look.

Thanks Jerry.  Because of all the brick, this one was more of a challenge to westernize than some of the other builds, but it sure turned out nice.  It's going to fit in on the layout just fine.

Hi Russ.  Thanks.  Yes, these river builds take some time, but will look great when all are together on my layout.  Let me share a couple of the others.  Here is the modified/westernized Thorndike build.

 And here is a shot of the Wrisley build, which also part of my river scene.

Thanks John.  Here is another shot to enjoy.

Gregg, the photography is very nice - you definitely know how to take advantage of natural light.  Really captures the sense of time of day.  My previous blacksmith shop was in an early 19th century foundry complex in Baltimore - lots of brick and stone.  The morning light on a clear day made the place come alive with subtle color and texture.
