Harbour Ice Cream
« on: August 19, 2011, 10:27:29 »
I recently bought a box of mixed bases from ebay and among them was most of the new harbour so I've jazzed it up a bit and created an ice cream shop with changing room above.

I really really like it, Emma! Great idea. That changing room doesn't look very private, though! :0 Love the guy playing the accordian.

Emma, how did you make the water? Is it just a printed paper?
It looks perfect.
Cheers!

Great display, Emma, just the thing for a sunny summer's day like today is here.  And thast water looks really realistic and inviting.  I second PrimusPilus's request for more information on it, please.

I've just bought the pier base from DS for my planned seaside railway layout and was thinking of adding the building as either a lifeguard/lost children office or a cafe.  Your scene shows it will work OK.

BTW, "wynd" is a good Northern word you don't see or hear often other than in some parts of the North.
