new project

[e-paw]

    Now I spray some thin glue and water mix with a drop or two of dish soap in it over the entire aria. I don't keep the spray bottle so close to the layout, it's just for the picture...I normally spray a mist above the work aria and let it settle down over the ground cover. That way I don't blast the ground foam away with the spray...


    When I get to a spot with a switch in the track work I place a small strip of card stock over the "working" end of the turnout as to keep the glue out of the points and turn out controls..


    while that sets up you can add some courser ground foam into a few spots to add texture.. Mine is from the foam that I made for my puff ball trees. It all needs to dry so that you can get a final idea of how all the colors will look together.

    After it all dries the it looks like this..I am going for a late summer look to the layout, and I think this fits.
