Brett's Library
Brett,
Could you please take a moment and let us know what books you tend to reference when developing or coming up with a design for a structure and the various castings to be included in the scene. I realize that a individual structure is a composite of different sources of information, and I was wondering what books you may tend to use.
My reason for asking this question is so that I can seek out the books you have used, and study the pictures for scenery ideas. My thinking is that if I can find some pictures and study the weeds, hills and cuts around the tracks and structures from which you mentally pulled your structure(s), then I may be able to create a more natural overall scene setting for the completed models.
Thanks in advance.
