Building the Rock Ridge Railroad with the slowest construction crew west of the Pecos.
QUOTE: Originally posted by grandpacoyote Chip, I had never even thought of it untill I picked up Kalmbach's The New Scenery Tips & Techniques( ISBN 0-89024-621-1). On page 16 of the book Mr. Rand Hood talks about and shows some methods to model a 'rainscape', including etched back lit 'lighting' strikes and bolts. Although its only a couple of pages of info for the project it is a good read and has me wanting to put it in my layout design plans... hrmmm maybe over Canyon Diablo... Peace. Coyote

QUOTE: Two codgers sittin on the stoop in Winslow Arizona "Think, it'll rain? Kinda looks like rain." "Now what'd ya say a thing like that for." "It's not for me. It's for my boy. I've seen it rain."

QUOTE: Originally posted by SpaceMouse Lots of people model sunshine. Fewer people model cloudy. Fewer people model snow. I even hear tell of a person who models a tornado. Anyone know of someone that models a rainy day? Just curious.
