I'm covered in baby powder

Things trundle on here in Ullypug towers.

The water tanks have a representation of the water softening equipment and an access ladder. Still a couple of pipes to add and some patches of missed paintwork to fill in, but I think it's getting there.

Bit of a session with the DAS last night saw the station approach area duly treated. The baby powder/Carrs and now with added MIG concoction has been sprinkled onto a coat of wet acrylic, but hasn't been brushed off yet, so the texture will flatten out to a degree. Tip number 1. Don't sneeze when you're using it.

The station building and GWR stable block fit into a base bordered from Evergreen strip.

The footbridge has had its railings added. The etched fence is from MSE and very nice too. I've an awful lot more of this to do. I'm using strips of Evergreen with holes drilled that will form the base for the fence, but you can't see them as they're covered in powder.

I don't know how much more I'll get done before Christmas, or whether I'll post again before then, so early greetings of the season to one and all! May santa bring you a froth free Christmas.

Right, I'm off to change.

The staton building looks brilliant. The roof looks good too. Out of interest how did you make it?

It's Ambis corrugated foil sheet, rolled by hand and glued to a former made from plasticard. Glad you like it.
