(its cheaper than replacing breakages) 3 wiring is a KISS principle job 4 when my best friend and I start work on scenery together Don't forget the DANGER Tempremental artists at work. if it is quiet when we are working the scenery will be [oops][tdn][censored][V] 5 for over all effect mass detail the front and slowly decrease level of small details as you move away from the viewer 6 use mini scenes to draw the viewer to where you want them to look 7 first scenery feature in is the back scene followed by the key identifier piece(what!! you dont have one??) 8 when you cannot think of any thing to do go and read the beginers book I garuantee you will learn something no matter how much you think you know. 9 keep to the chosen theme through out the line if it changes follow a natural progresion in the change 10 no mater what hapens there will be moment you think why am i doing this! these moments will pass. That is what I have learned so far I have been at it a while and am still learning oh and there is allways something you will have to get some one else to do because no mater how hard you try you will not get it right dont be afraid to ask for help its only a hobby regards John
