About 11 hours out; everyone must be asleep...

The Shamrock Hotel and Luxenberg Jewelers in Sheepscott. Shamrock is a kitbash of 3 Belvedere Hotels, and the jewelers is a City Classics tile front building with 1 floor removed. The scene details still need some work, like a road.

Show me your smallest steam locomotive

Edit: leighant beat me too it

Wildlife? In this shot there is a Doe (look for the darker tone ears outline), Squirrel, & possibly a Crow. This shot told my my tripod is indeed moving & messing up all my photos...

EDIT: PS: I loved the fields, something to work toward!! Nice work guys!!!
