[quote user="MisterBeasley"] I put a lot of interiors in my buildings.  One thing I've learned is that it's not easy to see in the windows in HO-scale structures.  So, the level of detail doesn't have to be as good as it would outside the building. [/quote]   Yes, this is certainly true.  I find that unless I want to get waaay down on hands and knees and change glasses a few times, I would not be able to tell an actual shelf item from a cardstock background. Therefore I completed the interiors of my townsite with images downloaded and resized with Photoshop, printed and mounted on curved cardstock on the ground floor (after painting the interiors with dark paint and "roofing" between floors with cardstock to prevent sightlines between floors. And you may have noticed, that peering towards an actual store front when you are downtown from the relative distance that an HO structure appears to you on your layout.....that even colour is not available to the human eye...or not much of it.... So I found images such as this, glued in a curved panorama inside a store, work very well. Or knock yourself out with tiny cans.     <img src="http://i168.photobucket.com/albums/u172/dcrane_2007/untitled6.jpg" style="max-width: 550px;" border="0" />
