Riverwood Cabin - the plan
I've named the N Scale A-frame - Riverwood Cabin. I bought a 12-inch square board to serve as the landscaping base. Since the house footprint is roughly two inches square, that will leave a lot of room for some new landscaping techniques, namely the kind used in model railroads. I want to try making a riverfront property, so I'll be using styrofoam, sculpting materials and resin water. I've been watching videos on landscaping and picking up materials to test.
I also picked up some accessories to get me on the way. I was actually searching for a Jeep or equivalent, but fell for this beast. It was unnamed in the listing, but I am fairly sure this is a 1967 Ford Galaxie Custom 500 by Classic Metal Works. I don't know why I would need a Batmobile for the A-frame, but I couldn't resist. Yep, those wheels actually turn.
I also picked up a Mercedes SUV and Mini Cooper. I was thinking it might be fun to take some vintage photos with the big Ford and then modern photos with the newer cars.
These cats and dogs are crazy small.
Honestly, the cats don't look like anything beyond fuzz. haaaaaaaa So, we'll likely use one of the dogs, but I especially love the hydrant (which would likely not be present in the woods) and the trash can.

For the water, I want some depth and some minor movement. No rapids, but a little soft breeze with ripples.
