    I started putting the mountains together with Plaster cloth. One roll done two to go. I think i underestimated the amount of plaster i will need for this mountain. A couple of shots below.

    Got a lot of work done today. There be plaster here!! Most of the front mountains and the areas for the logging camp is done. . The rest is from the background areas. Taking a break for to let the plaster to dry. There is a couple of mistakes to fix but for the most part it is done and ready for paints. I like it! Shots below

    Getting better with the spray gun. The grey is getting dry and i think it should get better when i finish rock molds. Shots below. I don't think the camera shows the grey washes but i can see it. It dulled down the brown really good, Shots below

    Got the back mountain finished. The different foliage will help cover any flaws i missed, and i did.. Got the grey down and Brown earth is next. Gonna take a break after that so i can clean up the track. Want to run some trains..

    Well, I stopped scenery and just ran some trains! I haven't done that for awhile so i thought it would be nice. Took me awhile to get the track clean enough to run them. That track gets real dirty working on plaster and spray paints I ran two different trains at the same time so i think it is ok. It gets really dirty with that plaster. It always seems to find a hole in the mountain that lets plaster through to the track below.

    This would seem to be a good thing. Imagine how bad it would get, if you waited to clean until scenery was more complete? Yikes!
