Aye, the dark side Stuart. I've packed all that debauchery away; it wouldnea run on the layout anyways. Well, thanks lads, for the support and cheer. Ian you are welcome and just PM me; there's nothing special in the construction of the tennements. It was mdf base with styrene glues to the front for the most of it....good as it doesn't warp and still looks fine...well, the rooves are a bit skew-wiff. I think the construction is in this thread; maybe want to skip that styrene tile method....And Mark, a drink in London is long overdue; I'm sure you'll dissuade me from any Southern modelling.
I took these photo's tonight as it's a blowy dark one and I thought I'd do a bit of a "Southernboy" style update but devoid of any of the dapper niceties that belong to the 30's. In fact it will be devoid of the effort that Mark puts into his updates really.
We get off at Leith. The train could go further but it'd be in the pash. It were a 122 strapped to a 101 2 car unit and look at the enigineerin' train
I don't know how you do it Mark, I just can't be arsed
Aye, ere we are at the Alan Breck loonge. Bin drinkin' that Tennents all day. Tastes like warm zombie pash. Alan Breck wus a charactur from that famous American writer Doyle aye?

It's pretty hard to take the night shots and the camera tends to brighten up the light sources. I don't like the starburst on my camera; could maybe dissable it. There should be loads of orange sodium glare from the city too but only on one side. I would love to explore artificial background lighting.
