Finally got my train show video delivered from the editor

what do you think? Does he keep his job or do I fire him?

I love the fast motion you did! Finally a glimpse how much work has been done before the audience sees the result.

Awesome!    It's great to see some quality public Playmobil layout competition stateside.

WOW. I need to watch that video several more times, but that is a huge and awesome dio. And I LOVE the shots from inside the train of the town and countryside whizzing by. Nice to show all the work that went into it, too. I know how long it takes to do my dioramas and I've never done anything of that magnitude, so I can only imagine. Great job!

Btw, what's with the house at 1:21 between the saloon and schoolhouse buildings? What is under it?

I like frames 1:30, 1:55 & 1:57 for overall layout shots

Stefan, thanks. I was told to use the GoPro3 we have on a setting that takes a picture every 10-ish seconds. I kind of messed up due to the SD card not having enough room. I missed the last parts of the set up. I think there were more than 30,000 pictures taken. Please join me for a show and you can feel my pain 

Glazz, thank you. its members like you who gave me the idea to do shows. I have been flowing yours and other members layouts for years. I have big ideas on a modern layout. Big ideas for making this western layout dimensional as well.

bb, I am glad you like it.  It was a lot of fun entertaining children and adults. The shot from inside of the train car is some of my favorites and the editor should have a lot more footage. I did shots from both sides of the towns. Oh at 1:21 I put a train transformer inside a house. When the train gets going I set the house on it but it did not fit. We have accidents all day long so we try to get quick access to shut the train down.

This is amazing. It is a very nice video. I was wondering, do you draw a design before you start building or is it in your head?
I love the different scenes: harbour, woods, western village! Just great!

Wonderful video Ras and the diorama is very nice and so huge!! I remember the bridge you made for this work. It is fantastic!!

Amazing stuff! I'm jealous of the amount of room you had there to setup! Oh and of course the insane amount of Playmo to setup!
Western style playmo still is the best!

[Rasputin]

sunflower, thanks, I do not have a design drawn out. I have a basic idea in my head and just shoot from the hip. I know I wanted two nice towns, a ghetto, lake, bridge, Indian village, forts and the forest. How it goes together is just random

George, yes the bridge of last years show was very fun but I did not have time to build it. I still had a bridge but it was not a working suspension bridge. Thanks for the comments.

Keesinho Thank you. I tried to get more room and tables but I was late in the negotiations. Maybe next year we can get bigger than the  1200 sq. ft. we have had. Western is one of our favorites as well.
