In
this loft we want to create our miniature world! So we have to accept that the
sloping roof will limit our model railway dreams. But at least we will be able
to improve the lighting situation: Two additional neon tubes will let the sun
shine over our layout.
We
want to take a lot of photos of our model railway which will, of course, look
much more realistic with a ‘blue sky’ background than in front of old
wallpapers. After experimenting with different colour shades, we decided to paint the walls light blue.
At
an early stage of our model railway project we are getting used to working in a
lying position. Due to the sloping roof we will have to build at least our 'city
life' layout on a much lower level than most other railway modellers do.
From
now on the sun will be shining from a clear blue sky every day. Let's start the
layout substructure work!
