P4NewStreet - modelling Birmingham (UK) in the 1980's - 1:76 scale

I like the mood of night shots especially. Maybe it is still possible to light up at least 1 lorries.

Nice clutter and scenery and night shots.

Thanks all

The lorry that's leaving does have the tail lights lit using fibre optics.

OK Thanks
OK Jim, thank you very much, now I have been able to recognize it, only because the lantern light falls on the taillights, I did not immediately recognize it.

Very nice scenes - atmospheric  Autumn

Beautiful! I like the size and layout of that factory.

I wasn't all that happy with the positioning of the yard lamps shown last time. The one on the right masked the tail lights on the lorry (as several people didn't notice them) and it didn't do enough to light up the entrance to the yard. Leading a couple of people to enquire how the lorries actually got in. So I've had a bit of a fiddle.

I've added headlights to the lorry.. They are much to bright really but you can't see them from the front of the layout anyway.

The last image shows what I was aiming for. Again its too bright for a lorry of that era but I'm happy with a bit of artistic licence for effect. You can see the difference when the headlights are blocked (on the left).

I have also been busy with more AK interactive wet effects fluid. Below are a few overviews that give a better hint of the rain.

[Bill Gill]

Your artistic modeling license paid off, the headlights do add a lot to the scene. 

[Design-HSB]

Jim, yes Led are sometimes brutally bright, because it helps to increase the series resistance significantly. In any case, the scene has won a lot.

Excellent wet weather effects. -- Russ

[Ray Dunakin]

Yeah, the wet weather effect is pretty cool. Is that a permanent treatment?

[jim s-w]

It is indeed Ray
