I know that if I am watching a film or decent program on the television or idiot box, I like to use just a single daylight bulb behind the television, it is like being in the cinema and for some reason is more immersive/better. They may be a subliminal reason for this but I find it much better.
Thanks Tadema for kind feedback, I used a curve background image that I think mismatches the whole scene and need to be replaced...
What do you mean by off-scale vegetation, in which part do you mean exactly?
I'm not sure Mike it looks like a grain loft to me. Those legs are designed to prohibit critters and snakes climbing up. I've seen similar mushroom shaped stone feet on British barns. However it could easily be a seasonal shelter too.
Quite possibly Mike i see Reims mentioned in the downloads folder from that scalextric site. Some good stuff hidden in there. Thanks for the comments guys.
