New Layout Gallery

Update 1st April

As you can see the plan to update the website every two weeks on a Friday hasn't come true. This doesn't mean that there hasn't been any photographs taken since then although there hasn't been as many as projected.

As you can see we have now finished forming the majority of the landscape with a little more left to do in some areas. We have also covered the landform in plaster. We used the same stuff you use to stick plasterboard onto the wall with. It has set rock solid and was sanded down in some areas before painting with brown paint that was found in the clubroom. As you can see there are some areas which still need painting and these have been left due to wet plaster being in those areas or in the case of the coal heap an unavalability of black paint.

The next major stage to be completeded is weathereing the track which is planned to be carryed out using Airbrushes. however before this can happern there is still a bit more landforming to carry out and a few other jobs we want to complete before the track is weathered. When this is comleted it is planned to mask the ballest off completly to enable Scenic work to be carryed out without risking damage to the track.

Other then that the Wireing is still ongoing but has had to slow whylst the messy jobs are carryed out. As you can see from above the Scrap Yard has been covered to stop it becomeing covered in pink shaveings like the ballast.
