Test BUSCH PC-program creating backgrounds
Posted by digidanny on Sunday, July 10, 2005 5:13 PM
[:)]Today I updated my website with a test with a BUSCH product. It
concerns 5 cd-roms to create by computer backgrounds for the
modeltrack (in any gauge). Even a cd about the US exists

The results, descriptions and many pictures of the different projects
show you the possibilities.
And ofcourse my trolleys are in it ! Text in dutch, english and german.
Any questions, please ask me.

See you around?

I followed the link to the Busch website. It looks like they have a lot of HO scale products. I didn't see anything about backgrounds though.

Where did you find the information about computer backgrounds?

Can you send us the direct link to it?

Thanks

This is the link you asked for. It is a pity they did not make an engli***ranslation on that site. But you find a picture.My german knowledge is enough to understand the text. It concerns 2 cd-roms with a wide range of 180 pictures.
There is choice out of (all american) buildings, stations, churches, factories and so on. Many in western country-style. In the chapter nature you 'll find cacti, pine- ,foliage- and palmtrees.
Backgrounds panoramas like Colorado, Nevada, Rocky Mountains, Yosemite-Nationalpark ,for instance.
All the motifs are photographed from the front, so that there are no disturbing "falling" lines. In that way can be used perfectly as background. Putting together what you want, you make you own 3D.
All in PSD and JPEG formats.
With the software on the CD-ROM every item can be printed in the convenient gauge you want and put on card-board and cut out.
The pictures can be shaped by programs like PhotoShop/Elements, PhotoPaint oder CorelDraw.

Als this is a short explanation. If you want to know more, let me know.
