Bobot's N-Scale Train Layout
(August 2006)

Practically nothing has been done since the last update.
I was living out of town for a while and the layout
has been put on the back burner for now.

Fall 2005 was the last work done on the layout as seen on this page.

The entire layout was painted with earth cover paint using a foam brush.
I dumped the paint in a bowl and went to town. I figured the less perfect it
looked the better it would look for nature...random.

Next I began working on the first layer of turf.
The track and switches were masked with tape.
I wetted an area with scenic cement, sprinkled the turf out of
a jar, then final sprayed with scenic cement over top.

Here I removed the masking tape from the track to check out the first layer of turf near the siding. Not too bad. The more I play with scenery, the more I find it looks better if you just do it and not think too much about symmetry and getting it perfect.

Who knows if and when I'll get back to the layout...but I'll post pics here if I do anything...
