Coal yard WIP
« on: 29 December 2015, 10:53:21 PM »
All this steam power needs fuel
WIP.  It still needs a chimney and the corrugated iron fence adding.  Yard will be fine sand and coal dust!
Also need to work out how I'm going to do the streets & pavements.

The fuel issue is too often shamefully disregarded in steampunk settings.
Laudably you correct this!

Nice work BTW. :D

I do like that but might I suggest a little more decoration around the lettering on the gate?

cheers

I was worried about buggering it up...  so I'll probably leave it for now!

I've a plan for a sign on the building instead.

Lovely work. Needs more grime, it's a coal yard after all.
