Recent renewed interest in this topic reminded me that I had not posted photos of what I ultimately came up with as promised. So here's the street views I developed. In the 1st photo, where the photo was taken, the depth of the layout is about 4 feet. I used flats, S and HO scale structures, vehicles and lights and traffic signal to create a vanishing scene and forced perspective. In 2nd photo, the depth is about 10 feet, far in the distance the street goes under a bridge where there's a mirror making it look like the street goes further than it actually does. Of the two, I like the 1st one the best. What do all think?
Hope you enjoy, Chad
