Painting
I've had the luxury of a week off work and plenty of modelling time.
It's been spent mainly painting the sheds.
Oh, and laying DAS air clay, Nevard style, in between sleepers to represent the ash and clinker ballast.
I've given the area a coat of grey acrylic but it's dried much too dark and shiny for my liking. I think I'll need to get the airbrush out and give the whole thing a spray over.
Still, you get the idea.
I've also made the base for the coaling stage, which will eventually be covered with the worst, nastiest cheapest coal Colonel Stephens could find!
I've also started on the River Yeo and the bridge, building the abutments from embossed styrene and painting the river bed all sorts of murky colours. The main bridge beams have been temporarily placed so I could work out all the respective dimensions. The cross beams have yet to be installed. Most of this will eventually be covered over anyway but I will know it is there!
