Alamo Movie Set

Uploaded: March 01, 2018 12:09:14 | Entered: March 01, 2018 12:15:25

Description

The Alamo Movie Set where John Wayne filmed "The Alamo" and many other western movies were made was dismantled and all items sold at auction several weeks ago. These scenes will never be seen again. Fortunately I got access in 2008 and got some captures. I will post some in the days and weeks to come. I hope you enjoy the past.

A favorite, a Winner Emile. Just love your presentation with the rocks across the bottom, the across the grass to the buildings. Top it off with a beautiful sky. Your details and textures stand out beautifully and the colors are so gorgeous. This is an exciting look that any of us wish we could see. So well done Emile. #11682085
