Wonderful track, so lovingly detailed, I wish I had so much perseverance with the design.

Just a beautiful track!  I love the detail on the buildings, and kept feeling like I should go rake some leaves!  Simply amazing!

Here is a small photo report about the construction process of the Tudor house:

Gluing of the walls...                                                                                                                        ...and the roof. The chimney was wrong and is now turned 90°.

On the track the Tudor house is almost completely hidden by the surrounding trees.

No Anthony, I haven't, but here are a few photos of how I made them:

This comes right on time! I have been considering making one or two trees...
You have an incredible eye for how a tree should look like!
Are they models of specific real trees, or do you use your imagination?
Each one is a masterpiece!

I would appreciate a steel wool bush lesson as well!

Very simple, I used my imagination.

In addition to steel wool, I also used filter material, which gives the same effect.
I am convinced that your self-made trees will look perfect, but if you still have any questions left, please let me know.
