Morning, looks great! Just wondering if you scratch built it or did you buy it?

Thanks Mike. I scratch built it with insulation foam several years ago. Some of the artists on the forum have made some impressive walls and inspired me to try making this and a long bridge as well. I painted it flat black and left it for another day to color because chosing colors is often challenging for me. I mixed acrylic craft paints for variations for the stone blocks. I think the color variations make it interesting but not realistic. I may make another one and copy an actual PRR tunnel portal and try to select a more realistic color for limestone and concrete just for fun.

I will post pics of the bridge I painted last night later. Cheers.
