mermaid themed train layouts

[trainguy111]

Has anyone tried doing a mermaid themed layout or at least something mermaid-related?

[dmaynard]

Mermaid? Sounds kinda fishy to me

No, I can't say that I have even thought about doing that, sorry I can't help you on that one. 

[trainguy111]

Just giving anyone whose anyone ideas. 

[dmaynard]

Trainguy111, thanks 

But since I have WAY too many ideas of my own, and some not very good ones at that, I don't think I will be taking the plunge  on this one

Not exactly mermaids, but this NTrak module features Spongebob.

Not bad!  :)

Our own Chris Walas did perhaps the best nautical themed ideas, including my personal favorite, the Crimson Herring!



Chris' site is well worth a young padauns perusal

There must be hundreds of mermaid-related layouts and models out there. But since mermaids tend to be not properly dressed, the will never be published in here.


So all I can show you, are some of my mermaids on their way to work at the local shark aquarium.



All you need to model such a world is a larger TV or PC screen for the background plus films like this:

Intriguing. But does anyone have Ariel on their layout?

[dmaynard]

Well since my layout is set in the very very early days of radio I doubt that will have any aerials on my layout.

On this side of the pond we put Ariel into the washing machine.

Now, that is a layout I´d like to see.

Although on further reflection...would a satellite dish look out of place on a 1910 era layout?

Hilarious Fritz, Absolutely hilarious, even if I couldn't understand a word!!!
