Hello from Italy,
I post a new set of pictures that illustrate a line section (zero level) and its accessories (the ballast has to be completed and wheatered), and the creation /insert of the tunnel’s portals in cement on the left side of the layout.
I take this opportunity to send you my best wishes for a Merry Christmas and happy New Year.


Frohe Weihnachten und ein gutes neues Jahr.

Andrea

Hello Andrea,

wonderful

[rodgauer]

Ciao Andrea,

thank you for sharing your wonderful layout with us. I really like your "style" and the level of detail you are applying. Really great - looking forward to follow your future work and pictures.

Buon Natale!

Hello Andrae,

thank you for this wonderful pictures. You style is awesome. Your green areas are first class. There is no better way to create such a perfect vegetation as you find it.

I hope you understand the German word "Meisterwerk" (masterpiece). This will be the only word for your project.

The line management of your tracks is incredible. These wide Bands are so lovely. I like it so much.

And you find so many unbelievable Details. I saw two motors for the Switch Drive! One for the Switch Blade and one for the turnout locking? In Germany one motor for both is normal.
Where do you get your detailed information from? Your knowledge of german railway is remarkable!

Now i hope that we will see much more pictures from your Meisterwerk in the future.

Best regards

Thomas (WiTo)

Hallo Andrea,

einfach G R O S S A R T I G - so etwas habe ich noch nie gesehen - blicks du bei den vielen Ebenen und Gleisen noch durch - ja Platz müsste man haben!

Sehr schön detailiert - danke für die schönen Bilder.

Auch dir ein frohes Weihnachtsfest und guten Rutsch.

Gruß

Hallo Andrea,

das ist der absolute Wahnsinn! Super Anlagenbau, Begrünung und Gleisbau vom Feinsten!

Wassernachbildung spitze!

Die Tunneleinfahrt, ich pack´s nicht mehr!



Ich werde mal versuchen das für die Ruhmeshalle vorzuschlagen!

Bitte, bitte mehr Bilder von dieser tollen Anlage!

Liebe Grüße!

Hello everybody,

first of all, thank you for your positive comments.
Sorry if I answer so late, but job problems and a brief seasonal illness, forced me to temporarily stop our hobby.

@ Thomas - about the Tillig "Einfache weiche 12° EW3" I have used the kit Tillig art. 85510 ( weichenzubehorteile ) reproducing " weichenantrieb" and the "weichenmittelversschluss" (I post a photo).
If you see something wrong, let me know, so that I can make the changes.

A big greeting
Andrea

Hello,
I insert a new set of photos.

The first illustrating the homebuilt road bridge spanning beam rails positioned on the left side of the layout.

The second images illustrating a section of landscape area that completes the front of the layout. It is a removable module in wood and polystyrene extruded, where I have recreate a small stream of water and a "Elektrizitatswerk".

The following pictures, illustrate the various phases of construction.

A big greeting
Andrea

Ciao Andrea,

ho finito oggi per la prima volta qui e ci è piaciuto moltissimo. Fantasticamente belle immagini e artigianale grande arte. Vorrei rimanere qui ancora più spesso d'ora in poi. E, naturalmente, sono anche d'accordo per la Hall of Fame !!!



Come ha fatto l'acqua che cade come realistico ?

Hallo Andrea,

nicht nur, aber im Besonderen, erschließt sich in den Großaufnahmen die Detailverliebtheit und Natürlichkeit dieser Anlagengestaltung. Ein m.M.n. klarer Fall für eine Beförderung in die Ruhmeshalle! Gevotet habe ich jedenfalls schon dafür.

Viele Grüße

Ich danke Ihnen für die positiven Kommentare.

@exergon hallo Markus, I will try to highlight the various steps used for the realization of waterfalls:

- For the water I used art.1211 of Wood.Scenics. It has the advantage of being ready to use. You can stretch it out in successive layers (max 3/4 mm. Each casting) and dries in about 24 hours. To give the effect of moving/ wave / choppy water I used the other item Wood.Scenics 1212.

- I shaped to fit a piece of transparent plastic (the one you use for the windows of the houses)

- I have stretched a small amount of product (Article 1212) on the lens and with a toothpick I standardized the whole. Soon after I made some vertical lines and left to dry for half a day. Keep in mind that once dried, the white effect almost disappears so, to give the depth effect, I used a bit of white acrylic with the dry brush technique.

- After positioning the transparent plate at the base I added again the product (Article .1212) to simulate the small waves. Reducing the amount of product as we went away from the waterfalls, I created the ripple effect of the water. Once dried, another very light coat of white acrylic, and I was done.


The following pictures, illustrate the various phases of construction.

A big greeting
Andrea

Hi everybody,
I insert some pics of a road bridge and a gas station that complete a part of the layout's front scenography.
A lot of other details are still missing but they'll be the object of the next updating.
I'll keep you in touch.
Greeting from Italy

Hi Andrea,
it's really very existing to watch the photos of your layout. Fantastic, awesome show.
I think you are the Italian Josef Brandl. Moving into the hall of fame should be a matter of course.

Best regards

[Schwellenträger]

Ciao Andrea,

great pictures of your layout! I personally like the concrete constructions such as the selfmade tunnel portals and bridges. But also the little scenes like the flower shop with all their details are great!

Keep it up!

[steve1964]

Ciao Andrea,
l´acqua é perfetta, mi piace molto.
Anch´io preferisco lo Styrodur, molto facile da tagliare con un bisturi,
ora è un materiale universale per la costruzione di case.

Sei diventato un vero artista di modellazione !
Saluti
Steve

Hallo zusammen
Ich danke Ihnen für Ihre mehr als positive Kommentare

I also started the "weathering" of the ballast (road bridge area). I used to wash in addition to black, the two colors "Vallejo Lavado" (see photo). Finally I cleared everything with the ivory white (dry brush) to give depth to the scene.
What do you think about it?

Thanks for your attention, best regards
Andrea
