Country Lane
The road surface, intended to represent a macadam country lane, is first covered with a liberate mixture of Polyfilla, abrasive blast sand (grain size 0.1 – 0.7 mm), PVA glue and Woodland Scenics earth undercoat colour using a stiff old brush.
I then sprayed the road surface with numerous different shades of grey enamel paints.
Finally I scattered a little turf and static grass along the road shoulder and the footings of the dry stone walls in order to give a blended look.
I am not totally happy with my current version of the country lane. I think that too many of the modelled roads have a too dark and too rough texture. Unfortunately this is the case with my model road too. I suppose that dry-brushing of white and light grey shades is needed to achieve a more convincing road surface colour in the future.
