  1. Here are some of those dynamic elements (video during setup so the train isn't running yet)
  2. Thanks! Some of the fun moving / dynamic elements in the display are: - motorized waterfall - flickering campfire in native american village - lights on most of the town buildings - eagle that soars in a circle around rightmost mountain - train circles the town on 9v track We hope to capture that dynamicity in an upcoming video
  3. Some confederate soldiers. I put them on a yellow background so they didn't look too good - the title is a nod to them rising in insurrection against the US and being on the wrong side of history. The torsos are largely taken from official figures with some of the print partially removed.
  4. "Ravenwood, CO" An old west Colorado town collaboration with Matt Hudson and @Donnie Bricko . Made for the CoWLUG display at the Spring 2023 Rocky Mountain Train Show
  5. Jeremiah Brewer is welcomed into Hanska's village to trade. ------------- A detail shot from a larger CoWLUG western collab we displayed at the 2023 Spring Rock Mountain Toy Train Show. Photo by Matt Hudson (Moonmanbricks)
  6. A collaborative Romans vs. Barbarians build with @M4cho Gr4nde. Pictured here as displayed at the Spring 2023 Rocky Mountain Toy Train Show I made the left half :) Obviously Vikings weren't around at the same time as Romans, so we made them Gauls Some additional photos:
  7. Some ravens call out ominously in a foggy stretch of forest
  8. As the Corlander troops marched silently through the forest near Seawatch they heard ominous raven calls come from the trees above. A low fog clung to the tops of the trees. -------------------------- OOC: Figured if it isn't too late to add a build to the attack, some fog could perhaps help either side
  9. A little video of the display from this weekend's Rocky Mountain Toy Train Show
  10. Nice job! I especially like the figure poses (the guy sitting on the dock!) and expressions
  11. Fabulous night build! Stud.io really lets the background be black while the elements provide all the light - so cool. A GoC from me
  12. Tested my proto train on its loop last night. Next up are more terrain details, crops, trees, and then figures!
  13. Another fabulous build @Bricksbypidy! The water mill created using those brackets is super fun. Definitely a GoC from me
  14. Nice job! I really love that 1x1 reddish brown flower stud as trunk bark texture - works so well!
  15. I tried the Duplo face first (removed using a hacksaw), but it was too big! This one is made out of modeling clay and then superglued onto some tiles Some other earlier prototype heads next to the final one:
  16. Thanks! The straight track is attached to the base using a swivel plate and lots of tiles. I then put plates down on either side of it to keep it from swiveling once in place.
  17. Thanks! Yes, the title/story are adapted from Tootle My kids love that book
  18. Thomas' fireman called out to his driver to begin braking. Sir Topham Hatt was just ahead with a signalman, who was waving a red flag. One of the first lessons Thomas had learned was to always stop for a red flag waving. --------------------------------------- The Thomas model is based on @ScotNick's previous efforts
  19. Here you go! https://discord.gg/wwhDMyRw6e
  20. Haha yeah - there had been some earlier Thanksgiving autumn scenes in Elizabethville, so I took it a step further and added snow a while back. Adds some nice diversity to the Brick Seas
  21. Yes was testing out the tunnel to make sure Thomas would fit through for future flexibility in the display
  22. This is the WIP proto train I'm working on
  23. Started filling in the mountains and adding a 2nd tier for trees
