Another little scenic addition, on the old Longford Circuit about halfway along Tannery straight was thew following building (shot taken from RFactor track)

So, I had a go at re-creating this impressive building on the Sorell Creek (Longford themed) Track. Again, as with most of my buildings, very easy foamboard construction. This time covered with textured brick sheets that add a slight 3d effect to it.

Just another small scenic update....keeps me amused !

The actual starters position at Longford, - was on top of a 44 gallon drum....similar to this !

Some more figures have arrived & made their way to various spots on the track.....very specific figures mind you....

You little ripper, looks awesome.

May I suggest you remove the base from the figures and add a bit of blu-tack to the feet rather than the lexan, it gives a nicer finish, on grass I have trimmed the grass away underfoot to help with the stick-ability.

I know, I know........, it's a little bit of a balancing act with the figures. How easy do I want to be able to move them ?, against how much effect is lost by having the "see though" bases.

I'm not quite ready to lock them all in to their current positions yet, I still like tweaking them & moving them around into different locations/poses :D

I am wondering if some static grass sprinkled & glued to the base would help ? anyone tried this ?

Hence the blu-tack. but what ever you decide it looks great.

Problem with grass. to base is that the base still sits on top of the grass so it looks funny, grass floating on grass.

The barrel roller looks good, maybe match base to material used to sit them on.
