biL, Tetters, thanks for the kind comments.
Greg, I'm also looking forward to the scenery. Will make a trip to the LHS today to see if they have static grass for the GrassBlaster.
S250... abridged... nice!
Kevin, the water technique is extremely easy. EasySand 20 in several thin coats, some sanding to get it flat and smooth, several layers of paint, and then three layers of water-based gloss polyurethane. For this bayou, I took the color from the other bridge and added a touch of green and a touch of black to make it slightly darker. I also sponge sanded the final coat of paint as an experiment, this left some color variations, darker in the middle and lighter against the banks, I think it turned out okay.
