Not MP/T&P but very nice midwest themed layouts

I attended a PowerPoint a couple of years ago given by Jason Klocke at the RPM in Collinsville, Illinois. His scenery, structures and realism is amazing. Here’s a recent YouTube video on an operations session that does a great job of showing his talents.

Lots of scenery ideas with small town industries, rural road crossings, corn fields blending into the photo backdrops, weeds around yard and industry tracks…very realistic.

And here’s another more modern layout featuring the Iowa Interstate. Joe Atkinson lives in Council Bluffs…this is his first layout.

Thanks for the link to Jason’s YouTube video. His ballasting and depiction of weeds/grasses around the RoW are the most realistically I’ve seen in any scale.

Can some one forward a message to Jason. I am very interested in what his scenic materials are, the grass and trees in particular. The colors are light and what I seek on my layout. The stuff I’ve bought locally is mostly too dark. An off line reply would be great if he is willing.

His PowerPoint lasted almost an hour on what he uses. Here’s a link to the catalog http://www.scenicexpress.com
That carries the Super Trees, grasses, etc he uses. I know he uses lots of static grass.
