Jaz Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Hello Jaz, In regard to painting very very small objects I find brushes like these are good, I do have smaller versions - Anything around 0.2 - 0.4 is pretty good I use all sorts including humbrol 000 and downey /0....you keep yours a LOT cleaner .....

Jaz Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 Ok well I have been working on the High Road..... This is where I started cleaning up the road rmweb2569kalboro17 and a sneak preview of where I am now....however there is 17 pictures before we get to THAT point.....LOL rmweb25925kalboro34 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 It was while tidying this bit....that I thought t was a bout time I sorted the white lines rmweb2570kalboro18 and the road edge....because in this picture the road edge goes into the grass....in reality that rarely happens and even tho the fence helps...the road is just missing that extra touch..... rmweb2571kalboro19 so with the help of a white ruler, some white paint and some dirty water (so the white was not to white) and a fine 000 brush...I painted in the white lines.....I googled lay bus for reference in order to size the lines, and had to touch back up with black grey and brown. But this was soon the result rmweb2583kalboro22 now i needed the right light to get the colours to show well, then I sat down to tidy the still wet road and take some pictures...there is still a little fluff on the road but until it is fully dry i cannot risk brushing it off.... 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 if it wasn't for the tunnels giving the game away..... the land looks almost flat rather than a road raised a hove the tracks rmweb2584kalboro23 some cheeky devil dumped some bin bags...and a bunny is checking them out at least there is no road kill today...although the post van avoiding the bus might yet hit something rmweb2585kalboro24 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaz Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 (edited) the drying weathering gives some authenticity...overnight rain drying out rmweb2586kalboro25 the bunny (well actually he's a hare) I still need to add a give way sign for vehicles pulling out and a Parking sign to advise vehicles they can pull in the edge of the road the other side of the white line got some brown and black..... rmweb2587kalboro26 Edited July 26, 2014 by Jaz 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcredfer Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 If he sits there for long .............. the bunny (well actually he's a hare) .................... he will be "Hare today and gone tomorrow." ................ Indicating that it is a bit of a "Hair-brained" creature ............... I bet that van going by, like that. must have been a "Hair-raising" experience for the animal ............... ................... If he is quick he could just Hare across the road to get to the nice new grass there .............. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaz Posted July 26, 2014 Share Posted July 26, 2014 I carefully chose model cares that have plastic inserts for lights....as they look more realistic rmweb2588kalboro27 and angle the camera so it is not obvious that the driving seat is empty and having them just out of focus...allows your brain to fill the details rmweb2589kalboro28 and a gain the small mistakes have been left or adjusted as no road is perfect and the road edges look more realistic now, a touch of black gives some great depth 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder rail transport is expensive ............... We have a serviceability problem with a loco [ok - it happens] ............ so we drag another in to replace it ........
