I made a trip to the train store this past week and came back with a big grocery-size shopping bag full of Woodland Scenics items. The result is that the hardshell on the big promontory that surrounds the sewer pipes is about 90% covered, with work underway on rock molds and dirt surface, with vegetation starting to cover things.
I completed coloring the plaster rock castings on the East Coast scenery-based side of the pomontory. The part of the hardshell that isn't covered by rockwork has been fully covered with Sculptamold mixed with cheap acrylics.
The next step will be to add extensive trees and clump foliage to this general area, covering a fair amount of the castings as well.
The photo below shows clump foliage being inserted into the rock crevices in the Woodland Scenics Ready Rocks that have been installed. A great deal more remains to be done.
The photo below shows the remaining plaster cloth hard shell that hasn't yet been covered with Sculptamold or Ready Rocks. This will be the last phase of the project to scenic the sewer pipe promontory.
I added a piece of Masonite to serve as a base for the Bachmann Lackawanna tower that will be installed at West Zenith. This is on its way.
The next step will be to finish off the open9ng with plaster cloth and add a retaining wall to the cut-off part of the hillside.
