Go for it Panzerhun
i will post some pictures of our yard and of the works we will be doing on it
here you are, four of us the day that we reached an agreement with the RC Cars Club to be a new Secction of his club:
some views before starting to do the ground movements
looking East
looking from the SW corner
looking from the NW corner
view from the far end, SW corner, you can see two of my colleagues just under the big pine tree on the middle of the image
looking N
and now, the big earthworks:
making the river bed (1m wide)
accumulating earth on the limits of the part of the yard that we will start to mould and use
two of us taking a break on the water pond
mounting a sort of retaining wall for the earth, so will will elevate the ground level almost 50cm
the digger was already gone, so we had to fill the last meter by manual means
tomorrow we will continue the groundworks, there is a lot of rocks and dirt to clean before making the ground elevations for the hills, mountains, roads, the town...
thanks for watching
best regards

Re: Panzergruppe Tarraco scenery: the Panzodrom
hello,
yesterday we did good advances on the works at the Panzodrom, we managed to assemble five club members at 0900. We then set out to clear the river banks from ground, dirt
and stones, and to carry and distribute the land all over the west bank, were most of the defensive positions will be located. It was a hard job and by 1700 we were absolutely dead tired.
here we are clearing the river banks from the ground that the excavator left while digging the river bed.
we have yet to create ground volume and to make the terrain forms, but as it's now would be the start point.
here making the wood steps from an old telephone pole for the main access:
and placing them in place
on the rear part of yard we haven't yet started to clear the stones ans to make the forms, but you can see that the ground would be not level, we want it uneven and with a lot of undulations, except for the main road
at the evening, after the day works were finished, the yard was looking very different, you can compare these pics with the firsts ones from this post and the difference is substantial, after cleaning the river banks and distribute the ground excess. Maybe you cannot see too clearly the details because by chance the tree's shadows match almost exactly the river's course!
that's all for this update
thanks for watching.
best regards
