First couple of modules near Cretaz (to Pont D'Ael) represent mountains and a stone bridge over a creek. To build landascape, I use a mix of technique I learn from my friends Andrea, Denny and Franco "Pik" and from a series of How-To DVDs directed by Joe Fugate (see http://siskiyou-railfan.net/e107_plugins / content / content.php? content.26 for detail on how to order DVDs). Follow along as I show how I created this scene (not yet completed).
The first pair of modules that meets Cretaz leaving the station towards Pont d'Ael wants to be an Alpine region with hills and a stone bridge which passes a stream. The techniques that I used for this part of the landscape full line are the result of suggestions from my friends Andrea, Denny and Franco "Pik", manufactured and tutorials on DVD and directed by Joe Fugate, a skilled American model (see http://siskiyou-railfan.net/e107_plugins/content/content.php?content.26 for info on how to order the DVD). Below you can see the stages step by step with which I landscape forms (not yet finished).
On the module structure, I build high-reliefs with extruded foam insulation board and hollows with cardboard strips joint with hot glue.
The wooden frame I made with polystyrene foam pads and hollows with strips of cardboard glued together with hot glue.
Then I cover everything with masking tape ...
So I covered everything with duct tape body repair shop (of paper) ...
... which I then painted with brown acrylic paint.
After the paint dried, I Applied rocks (plaster, water and white glue Poured into molds latex selfmade) ...
Once the paint dried, I added the rocks (made with extra-hard plaster, water and glue cast in the mold of latex) ...
... and then I covered the open areas with a thin layer of "soil" (to mix the ingredients to see http://www.sp-coastline.com/2008/08/covering-scenery-base.html ).
OT: while I was doing this, outside a thunderstorm ... Was hitting Turin
brief note of the news: While I was working on the landscape, out of a spectacular and intense summer storm was about to carve up the Turin ...
After the mix set, I paint again to brown, add Some small rocks (real rock from Valle d'Aosta) and cover it with a mix of plaster of Paris and powdered color (brown, gray, etc.). to creating realistic ground base. To fix plaster, I distilled water spray all over the layout.
induritosi Once the mix, I painted all brown again, I added some small rocks (pebbles collected in real Valle d'Aosta) and then I poured through a sieve of gypsum powder colored light brown, dark brown and without creating gray areas of uniform color. I then spray with a nebulized distilled water, blended with the chalk dust, he set everything well on plastic.
Finally, I planted the grass with the Master's Noch Gras.
