More Terraforming and Detailing

 

Work has continued on the remodeling of Philip's Creek.  The bulk scenery work has been completed on the southern end of Philip's Creek up to the creek itself.

With that work completed, some details have been added including fence posts, telegraph and power poles, some trees, and vehicles.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In addition, I pasted a cropped Google Streetview image from Carcoar to the backdrop to add some depth to the main street. Yes, I know Carcoar is a bit further west than my modelling area but it was a good fit. Also, when the focus is on objects in the foreground, the background becomes less of an issue.

 

The focus has now moved to the northern end of Philip's Creek with the current effort on shaping the landforms before the application of the fabric and then coloured tile grout. Once again, the 50/50 mix of PVA and water will get a major workout.

  1. Phil, it is looking good and the Carcoar photo does fit in well.

    1. Thanks Ray. I was surprised how little manipulation was required other than removing the skyline. That said, as I look at the photo again, the plain area of green above it requires much more detail to reinforce the sense of distance. However, that's a job for later once the bulk landscaping work has been completed. cheers Phil
