It looks like it just might be but do you have some more information to share? Maybe some more pictures or maybe even a web site?Originally Posted by DaveR1
Thanks to John Fladung.
It would certainly seem to be something worth knowing a little more about!
Cheers!

My dream layout is finishing off half of our attic and then building a horseshoe layout around three sides of the finished area. When they built out house, they built the attic with storage in mind, but I don't think they ever intended for it to become any kind of second story room. Although, when they built up the trusses, they managed to avoid any cross bracing, leaving a nice big open area. With a short wall on each side, the room can still have plenty of room to work with.
Well, its a dream
It's not a model. It's a Photoshopped version of CP's Pig's Eye yard.
Here's the original:

I forget the name of the technique used, but it's a neat way of making real-life photos look like models. Has something to do with the apparent focal depth of the image. There's even a website that will automagically do it for you.
Would be nice to have a model yard that big, though!
Wow id just like to know how much money you could wrap up in that,most likely alot more then iv got. lol
I think Jeff figured it out first but you're mostly right TwinDad. Actually, no Photoshop involved. I just used that website you referred to.
I would bet that I could never afford to build that layout. It would be fun though. Way in the background and a bit right of center is a hump.
That is great- had me fooled. Now, can we mathematically do the opposite: make our models look like the real thing! Maybe some clever programmers can figure it out.

Yeah, I think he was playing it cool. I was so excited I recognized it that I couldn't help myself!

I kinda wish I'd let it play out a little longer, but I couldn't help getting the scoop!
That's alright. I didn't think it would foll anyone much.
MetroRedLn, if you mean the link for doing the tilt-shift thing to your images, it is this: http://tiltshiftmaker.com/photo-editing.php
Sorry, I thought you were asking "What is your dream layout?".
I'd be more than happy to know what your dream layout is.
My dream layout would be the same as my current layout. Except it would be finished
