The next pictures will give you a total overview including the farmstyle restaurant selling their famous vino.  :biggrin:

The close up shows how they are labouring to get the fruit to the winepress.

Another update on the new Ver 2.0 on the making of the vines.

We were not happy with the paint texture we got using normal acrylic paint and decided to make new ones.

Yep, the making of it was easy and because we were going to airbrush them I made a nice production set up.  :biggrin:

See the pictures below.

I sat haunched up on the layout cutting out the Ver 1.0 vines (well most of them) and glued the new ones in its place. I stopped counting after a 100. Lots of Bostik glue.  :D

Hi there train friends!

Just a small update....  :) Next to the orchard we have 2 Swiss Chalets and the families are having a grill, pronounced gggrriiill.

Take a guess where they are from.

The fire is going nicely made from charcoal and not rooikrans. Checkout the coal.

the fire is going nicely but nothing to grill yet and the wive had to go and fetch it in the kitchen.

This can only be said in a South African way, ribbetjie and wors or in English, spare ribs and sausage.

Painted, I mean marinated and then on the grill.

Enjoy

Nice close-up of the grill with the goodies on the fire.

But take a guess where these nice people are from apart of the wors and ribbetjies.  :biggrin:

Hi Werner,

It just so happens I have a few hundred 0805 red LED's in my (future) project box that I was planning to use for signals.  They are really small at 2.0x1.25x0.8mm, and you will need at least an optivisor and steady hands when working with the buggers.  You are welcome to a few if you want.
