Over the summer I was lucky enough to visit Lex Parker’s layout outside Toronto. What a treat!
He models the Denver and Rio Grande in On3 and you can read all about it on his website.
He has an amazing layout with great detail and beautiful scenery. I got a little carried away with the photos…

A real masterpiece of a railroad. I hope to make it to Canada to see this in person. Definitely not too many pictures…. more! More!
Thanks for sharing.

Great pictures of Lex’s layout — they really do it justice Kathy. I am lucky enough to live only 20 minutes from his house, so I get to see his progress every fall when the layout is open to the public. Lex is an incredibly talented modeller — the hobby is lucky to have him!!
Don, Lex is so generous and incredibly talented and you are definitely lucky to live so close! Kathy
I have been following him for a wile he is a modeller I aspire to, I hope to use some of his techniques on backgrounds when I get to that stage on my layout.
Neil, his backgrounds are exquisite and I love the one which is across the aisle from the layout to give it a bit of depth. Kathy
The other YouTube Chanel I follow for background painting is Chris Lyon in Canada https://m.youtube.com/watch?list=PLooCgu3lwlGd6HjZBG-rfJ-DxTwc5Kvnp&v=YYiOvCe6iLw
I think I will aim for somewhere between them time will tell weather I get there.

There are some gifted artists out there!
I wimped out and although I painted my sky, I’ve used printed back scenes.
