It has been a very busy two days and lots of developments on the layout. Probably the most important was the ‘wiring’ of all the lineside posts and then painting them. I have also made two tree stumps, planted two hedges, worked on the river, added seven reclaimed trees and generally blended together some areas.

I failed in my attempts to ‘dye’ my teddy bear fur, so further tries with different methods are required.

I feel I am beginning to pull the scene together although there are a couple of areas that niggle me a bit and will be revisited.

Next steps will be to gloss varnish the river, add some more grass tufts and plant some veggie or animals in the fields.
