Congrats, man!  That parking lot is hot.  Tell me if that paper changes color or otherwise changes with time.

It's actually a year old, and seems good so far.  I think the trick with ScaleScenes' stuff is to seal it before you glue it.  I used Dullcoat because that's what I had, but there are scrapbooking fixatives that will probably work even better.

Congratulations, Philip.  I can always say I knew you (and even got that "beaver shot" of you working under Lee's benchwork) before you were famous.   :D

Nicely done Philip!  Congratulations.

I really have to remember to read MRH.  Every time I look at it there is some really nice content, but I can never find a format that I find comfortable to read on my laptop. That's probably just me though.

Very well done.  I like your writing style.  I usually try to get my wife through the $1 aisle at Target quickly because she wants one of everything for our granddaughter.  I'll have to pay closer attention next time and look for some re-purposing prospects.
Best regards,

Roger

Nicely done Philip.... and welcome to to the club...I mean, it's not much of a club, we don't have a secret handshake or a decoder ring, we don't actually do anything and we certainly don't have a song or club house but hey it's international so.... ;)
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

Tell me if that paper changes color or otherwise changes with time.

I did the paper roads and parking lot on my Area 53 module back in 2005, and they've held up pretty well:

2006:


2012:


 I also used the Bucket o' Dullcote method to seal them, and spray adhesive to hold them in place.
