very well done lokomotive. Consider a homemade base. It has not the same standard as the machine you so wonderfully rendered.

Thanks mates, @Michael: yes, base ist a "quick shot"...
I'm thinking about a "station project", This V36 and a BR86 were in the 60's in Raw Karl-Marx-Stadt...

I'm liking the loco and track lots, Ho Ko, but the uniformity of the ballast detracts... May I suggest some different dark washes, as if there were fresh (lighter) ballast laid on top of old, dirty ballast? Some 'shadows' in the gaps between the stones might transform it from a plastic appearance, to more realistic stones. I loved your tractor base, so I know you have an 'eye' for realism 🙂👍 What is your opinion? If it is how You want it, then ignore all of the above 😉

Thanks again 🙂, @Bruce: you're so right 👍, the base from the box its for a 1/35 scale I think 🙁 , the ballast and spaces between are too big.
I started with a wash but the effect was so small and i only had time today 🙂, So it was I "quick shot"...
For a "Railway station" project I think about a new ballasting (graveling) or using only the tracks.

for the "Raw" project I looked for better ballast stones and for H0-scale are enough...
So tested weathering with pastels and applying here.

It looks soo much better now 👍🙂 It all works in balance, and nothing distracts the eye. Excellent results 👍🙂

Danke Michael, Thanks Bruce and many thanks again for your advice, otherwise I would certainly have been lazy 🙂 and left it as it is for now...
