Bradgate Farm Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Hi, I'm john, i use to play with these toy as i thought at the time, years ago as a child. Over the last few years iv got back in to it again. So over the bank holiday i thought id start my farm, this is so far, What do you think, any advise would be great. Quote
Tractorman810 Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 nice start mate, what else do you have planned then??? will you have livestock to, or just arable / root crop farming Quote
Bradgate Farm Posted June 3, 2011 Author Posted June 3, 2011 Not sure at the min, When i had an 8 x 4 sheet in my room as a kid i had both, so might do the same in the end. see what space i can find. Using a corner in the garage at min. Quote
Tractorman810 Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 same as me then, i had a 8x4 sheet of ply when i was younger , with several ply buildings on it, inc a dutch barn , but no fields, just have a look through the other layouts in here for some inspiration, most of us will tell you where bits came from no worrys, mines called ash tree farm, but its nothing compaired to smallclaas's layout, which is a work of art, some of the early pictures have been lost due to server upgrades, but its still worth a look through http://www.farmtoysforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,888.msg74376.html#msg74376 welcome to ftf by the way, hope you enjoy it on here Quote
Deere-est Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Welcome to Farmtoys Forum J. It's a nice start you have made with the backing boards to add a bit of depth. Look forward to seeing more form you. I don;t have the time to do anything with my layout any more. . .. The topic is on here somewhere, in the dust vault I expect :'( Where will you be drawing your inspiration from for this layout then?

Bradgate Farm Posted June 3, 2011 Author Posted June 3, 2011 Hi, to be honest i think the inspiration will come from childhood dreams, and what the kids want, ha ha! Quote
the other green Posted June 4, 2011 Posted June 4, 2011 Yep, looks good. I'm also a fan of the backdrop, makes for uncluttered pictures with no distractions. Quote
