Sir Madog

The day is slowly coming to an end on this side of the Big Pond. Aside from my fight with those Internet people, I have wasted my time drawing yet another Marklin nostalgic "dream" layout - one with a slim chance of getting built, because I left all those costly items like a TT and the old Marklin crane out.

Well this is how far I got in about 4 hours:

Lots of buildings need to be drawn, which eats up quite some time. "Scenery is pretty quick - all I have do draw is the patches of green, where there is soppused to be "green". There is a library for bushes and trees, so that´s pretty quick as well - but not today.

I´ll be having a Drinks for a nightcap and then go watch an old, but good movie.

CU tomorrow!

You're not the only one who draws dream layouts. I have a couple of dream layouts sitting on my computer. They are drawn in Atlas' newest track building program. (Interesting program that took awhile to get the hang of.) The plans are detailed enough that I even have the benchwork figured out down to the number of boards and the cutting plan for those boards.
