Layout: Serveja Vilage

[Sérgio]

present a diorama that has the 4x4 baseplates(32x32) "Serveja Vilage"

In portuguese, Cerveja meens Beer, my name its Sérgio, and exists one city it calls "Beja" "Serveja" its just a little joke mixing all that names. :)

in this layout i try to everting the most realistic possible, use plenty of rare colors, to give a more sober, all trains are replicas of Portuguese trains think I've introduced them all here :)

Can see more pictures here:

This work it was made with a veryveryvery helpful hand(and lots of pieces and a dream lego stock )of my friend and excelent afol João Paulo Fernandes.

Wonderfull!

I'm often in Portugal (my parents live in Tavira) and I think you've captured the spirit with the trainstation and that super nice house with the red(ish) roof, good work

I haven't been able to study Portuguese trains yest (heck, Tavira doesn't even have a trainstation, just a stop) so I don't know if they're accurate. But it looks real good

Simply wonderful work here

[L@go]

That looks absolutely gorgeous! The colours are perfect, the trains are wonderful, and all those details... what a fantastic diorama! Stunning.

Oh, and the train station is one of the best I've ever seen - especially the roof. So well done.

[AussieJimbo]

Great work, Sérgio.

It's a wonderful scene with plenty of great details to look at. I particularly like the roofing solution on the station and the blue house.

Did you paint that tile mural on the side of the station?

Top job.

:classic:

[tedbeard]

Wow, really nice. How did you do the blue mosaic on the side of the building?

[LegoSjaak]

WOW!

This is TOTALLY COOL! Huge masterpiece and beautiful buildings, I like the architechture of the station

The windmill is awesome and the train depot absolutely great!

The power line and the vegetation so highly detailed are a great touch

[cimddwc]

Great! Beautiful architecture, details, installations, nature,...

[MetroiD]

This is lovely, although I think it qualifies more under the category of "diorama" rather than being a complete layout. In any case, it is a brilliant scene and certainly shows once again that you have a great eye for detail. Could you please let us know some more about the trains / engines you've based your models on?

[Sérgio]

Hi my friends!

Thank you all for the positive words!

The stickers are custom made, the paint in station its a original paint of one real random station in Portugal.

Thats right its a diorama, not a layout, i ask any moderator to change the title please to "MOC - "Serveja" train diorama" or someting like that...

The train models are "old" two of them have been front paged, later i add some more details about the trains, right now im on my mobilephone and ita hard to copy/past links and images

One more time thank you all!

[JopieK]

Very nice indeed!!! Love your details. Nice stickers too, that always makes is more complete. House and station are neat and elegant.

[peterab]

The level of detail and realism are in your diorama fantastic. I really enjoyed seeing this.

Excellent work creating this Sergio! This is very lovely and so detailed! You definitely captured a rustic look of an out-of-the-way town. I like the colors of the lime, white, and dark orange SUV, Could you post a close up of it? Great job on this

About the trains they are all replicas of real stuff:

the cargo train its a Cereal train, on front "English Electric CP1400"

with 3 wagons "TDGS"

parking inside garage It a "Bombardier CP1960"

Out side the garage a Shunter "Sentinel CP1150"

And finaly a little "Dresine"

parking inside garage It a "Bombardier CP1960"

Interesting, you've used strips of aluminum foil to simulate aluminum-framed windows.

[MetroiD]

Wow, thanks for all the pics mate! I love your Cereal train - and its original version too

[Asper]

This is wonderful. So many details to discover. I will come back here (or to flickr) several times!

[Mr Copperhead]

I'm very impressed! You've given us some really nice pictures and a lot of great ideas. I especially like your tile roofs!

[The Blue Brick]

This is gorgeous. The level of detail is just great from the buildings, the roofs, the road, the modded vehicles, to the actual trains.

This layout is just stunning.

[Mr Benn]

very nice diorama! I really like the little Portuguese house with the blue bordering, just like so many houses there, love the roof too!

[Selander]

Fantastic display ! You have used a good color-scheme, which makes the whole display look more natural.

So many nice details to study.Good use of yellow "chairs" under the hopper waggon TDGS.

Well done.

Just awesome Sergio. Front-paged!

EDIT: Sergio: I hope you don't mind, but I changed your topic title to help identify your layout a little better.
