<p>[quote user="vsmith"]</p> <p>[quote user="Sir Madog"]</p> <p>My N scale micro layout:</p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.japanrailmodelers.org/pages/modelingjapan/minimodules.html">Confessions of a mediocre model railroader</a></p> <p>If you are looking for food for thought on micro layouts, try searching some of the UK based railway modeling sites - they are champions of building small, but intriguing layouts over there!</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Geez, Ulrich, if <strong><em>thats</em></strong> mediocre, I'm doomed! <img src="/emoticons/emotion-5.gif" alt="Wink" /><img src="/emoticons/icon_smile_newlaugh.gif" alt="Laugh" /><img src="/emoticons/emotion-4.gif" alt="Stick out tongue" /></p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Actually, it is much easier to create a nice looking scene on such a small module, that to scenic a complete layout. If you have a good eye for scenes and scenery, you won´t have any problem at all. The nice part is, that you don´t lose a big investment, should you be unhappy with your achievement. The only difficult and cumbersome task is to ballast the track.</p> <p>I am a mediocre model railroader - I can´t solder, I hate wiring, I am lacking the dose of patience and persistence you need building a "big" layout, I change directions while building a layout, I am not firm in using power tools other than a drill, and I have no money to speak of for my hobby. If that´s not mediocre, than I have to recheck my dictionary [swg]</p>
