I got a few things done on the layout last weekend and continued a little during this week. Still working on Rappahannock Aggregate area with weeds and details. I also starting adding signs and and other details to the road and road crossing to RA.
 |
| Here is the road to Rappahannock Aggregate. Added a speed bump to hide a seam. |
 |
| Add some weed clumps to "vegitate" the area. Got to find some more dump trucks. |
 |
| Found a decent enough picture online to use as a backdrop. Added some trees and bushes to make it look move believable. The pic makes the backdrop pic stand out. |
 |
| These two ridges are for the spot in the background. I will add trees to them. Used the florist foam for the first time. The Foam is definitely easier to paint. |
On the lower level, I switched 2 industries around on the Mine Run Branch. I switched the propane dealer and the woodchip loader. It seems to me they fit better now.
 |
| This was the spot for the small propane dealer but the woodchip loader takes up less space in this spot. I also did that homemade chip load with foam and sawdust. |
 |
| This spot will hold two propane cars and is less tight for the larger propane tanks. |
 |
| Overview of the propane dealer. The backdrop on the left is a print from online and the right is hand painted. I need to add some more olive green to the paint! |
