Heading toward the finish line at a (ha...ha...) breakneck pace.
Joined all three sections of the warehouse project by glueing the backs to two pieces of cardstock. I also added a little bit of weight to the tallest section since that one tended to tip forward. The addition was a small chunk of wood glued to the back of the ground floor.
Did a little exploratory in my workshop and found a discarded piece of Homasote that was wide enough to serve as a backdrop, so I figured it was fate. Cut it to the right width and slid it behind the finished warehouse.
Blue and white paint slapped on for sky, and then I penciled in an area to paint for trees and hills to get the right transition at the corner.
And here we are with the painted backdrop in place. I intend to give the trees a 3-d treatment tomorrow.
