not much time to get anything done over the weekend, but take some photos...



gotta fix those handrails...


this shot would be awesome if it weren't for the light reflecting off the cab number decal and the cobwebs on the nose. damn good cell-phone camera, the cobwebs weren't visible to the naked eye....
 


things are lookin' up...

I thought the cobwebs were rain drops streaking down, and the glare off the cab number was just moisture in the rain. Excellent shot.

Love the paper mill sequence. Talk about the lumber industry. :)

Can't wait to see more updates. My in planning layout calls for a paper mill in a similar space.

Nice photos.  I like the low angle in the last shot; it would make a good angle for a video run-by with dubbed sound.

Hmm... looks like the
Blob...


Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.
"It works! It works!"

What color gray did you paint the mill?  That's a good shade.
