The weekend was spent experimenting with lighting. Not the most exciting job, but I have come to the conclusion that the fluorescent tube must go. It is giving too pink a light. I am going to replace it with a row of five 100W daylight bulbs. You can see the light is to warm when yo compare the colour of the render on the real building and the model. In daylight the model colouring is almost spot on. 




It has also become clear that the gradient of the road needs to be reduced  slightly so that it matches the front elevation of the houses above. The road is part of the main structure of the baseboard so some careful surgery will be required. Reducing the gradient will also make it more possible to include tramway style track up the road. This would have been a more likely route if the railway had gone round the rocky headline towards Black Rock Sands. By including it I will keep my options open if I eventually model the headland below St Cyngars church.
