Thorny Point Real Estate Market Explodes

The Thorny Point real estate market has exploded and there are now three new buildings under construction.

As you can see from the picture below this construction requires taking perfectly good standalone structures and cutting them down to make background structures.  There is also the issue with the side walls and how they play (or don't play) with the adjoining kit sometimes requiring major modification or scratch construction.

In addition to this construction, the Thorny Point passenger station has been set in place.  I hope to get the ballasting done tomorrow.

Also two days ago was a very nice day with no wind and warm.  So I was able to get 500 or so tree armatures painted gray.  It only took 3.5 hours!  Next opportunity I will highlight the limbs with black and then they will be ready for flocking.

Cutting down a perfectly good kit to make a background building.
