I had originally planned to have the trees go up to the first set of lights but, noticed it would block the view of the back corner.



I might add some in front of the trees already installed . Your right though...it does look good with the lights out and the cars going past the trees. If I get a chance I will take some pictures with the lights out and the cars on the track. I also have the walls of the room all signed up, I'll get some pictures of those too. Marcus is going to want some of these

Sorry to say I have no pictures of them racing on the track at the graduation. Everyone had a blast on it though...except me I was busy grilling for over 100 people Hope to get some new pics up soon. Trying to finish the pitlane, garages and grandstand. Also have an area for a car show.

Anyone have any suggestions on how to mount figures on finished scenery without making a mess. I have a bunch of the Homies and they don't stand up very well on some of the terrain. Though, I did notice the have a small magnet on the bottom of there feet. Maybe a finish nail would be enough to keep them in place. I don't think silicone is an option.

Jeff, I have used a product called Hobb-E-Tac from Woodland Scenics. It's like really thick white glue and is super sticky. It worked well on my railroad layout when i had it for standing people, animals, and other items on the rough terrain.

You are doing one heck of a job with your modeling.

These guys patrol over here mostly, but if Spidey calls they'll be over in a flash! Hey, anybody got the Flash? He'd entertain the crowds by head-to-head racing with the cars!...

Thanks for the compliment I just showed my 4 year old grandson the picture of your Avenger figures. He said Papa, I want those! Guess Spidey will have some help after all. Can't spoil your only grandson too much can you? I can

I think if you can sacrifice a car, and mangle the roof of it, a hulk SMASH!!!! trackside scene would be awesome!

Jeff, you're welcome for the compliment of course, it's well deserved, I can't wait to see more. I think these little superheroes are a great gift idea, so spoil away! Slots are already very fun, but you can never have too much fun right? These little things are what it's all about. I bought mine, but my 8yo loves 'em. Have fun!
