Sometimes the focus is skewed the other way - a lot of George Sellios' work (and others) goes that way. His is the "worst, seediest, most run down, hard on its luck, never been washed, wrong side of the tracks" type layout. It is also great, but doesn't capture the full spectrum of city living either. The advantage of the model world is you can ignore the backbreaking labour required to hand-fire steamers, or that the soil under a yard is contaminated, or whatever... Sure you can strike a balance, but in the end it is your own world, and how close you want it to match the real thing (present or past) is entirely up to you. Andrew
