Progress during
3rd Quarter 2004
We
have plodded on this quarter - Chris has continued to focus on building
replacement lighting gantries for taking club layouts to exhibitions and
finished them for the exhibition at the end of October. Paul has continued
with the wiring, and has now finished most of the boards on the front of the
layout as well. Steve has continued scenic modelling on the "Lehigh River"
at the front of the layout and has made good progress. The photos show
some of this:
The river stones starting out - a mixture of
Woodland scenics cork and other light modelling stones laid into dilute PVA:
And below, after some painting. First
spray-painting with tan, then darker grey, and finally dry-brushing with light
grey. The river finish is temporary - finalising it more at this stage would
result in damage as areas behind are modelled. There will also be a lot of
greenery added later.
