Hi Frenchie,
Firstly a very warm welcome to the Scale Models forum. I'm glad you found the thread interesting and usefull. There are actually two of us building this model at the moment who are members so we should hopefully be able to share ideas amongst ourselves. The other member uses the ID "Greif" as you may have already realised from the replies in this thread.
I am stuck with the challenge of only being able to build my model when I am at home as I currently work three months away and then have two months at home. Consequently it sort of progresses in fits and starts and probably takes a good bit longer than it will for others. It has actually taken me well over two years so far but a great deal of that has been spent on the steam plant.
I will be posting another progress report in the not too distant future with this leaves work added. I am now working on the bridge area but, as always the progress is slow!
If you are on the look out for information let me know as I have collected some usefull resources and, as I live very close, had the opportunity to photograph the Mountfleet model in his showroom when I bought the kit so I have a set of pictures that provide usefull reference.
I look forward to seeing your build start.
All the best
