Joe: I read two threads just before I left for work last night. Your entry in this one and the following (quoted in part)... "Posts: 38 Joined: 23 Jul 2003 Location: The Great Midwest What types of dyes would work well to produce transparent colors in Realistic Water by Woodland Scenics? I believe WS pigments would produce opaque results. If I am incorrect on this, please let me know... -------------------- Frank Eva Digital Railroader LLC http://www.dcctrax.com Profile Email Web Back to top howmus Posted: 12 Nov 2005, 12:10:00 Quote Posts: 853 Joined: 30 Dec 2004 Location: Finger Lakes Most people paint the base of the lake, pond, stream, whatever you are modeling rather than dying the water itself. That way you can vary the coloring under the water to get a realistic look to it. I wouldn't add anything to the WS Realistic Water itself. It could change the properties of the product and you might get some very unexpected results. There are several threads on the forum about creating ponds, etc. Do a search on Water and you may have more info. -------------------- Ray Seneca Lake, Ontario, and Western R.R. (S.L.O.&W.)

So I sat by the track (on topic) and felt really saddened. At least a bright full moon was making halo rainbows through thin cloud... you don't get that with toy trains. So I'm thinking... Most of my posts try to help. Many of them are downright serious... Track Safety is serious. I enjoy a good, harmless giggle. Many of the threads and posts on this forum have really cheered me up. Refering to another thread earlier yesterday I do try to thank people. As noted by someone else there is a question of when to say thanks. The opposite side of that is that many of my posts are quite long. I put in the time and effort hoping that they will help people to comprehend what they are looking at beyond the short answer. I really appreciate it when I get a positive feedback. I also post bits that might amuse or take a different slant on things. All of us can get way too serious about our hobby. So.. I have to admit that my reaction to the two things quoted was probably a bit strong. You should have had an E mail from me intended with humour. If you didn't it said: "Tåg = trains skoj =fun" I think that, that quick response was about the only thing to say directly to your post. For now I'm going to shut up. If I make long, short or humerous posts again would everyone please note... if you don't like my stuff you can i.d. it by the name at the top and skip down to the next post. Hey...Model railroad's are FUN!
