My adventures in Ho Scale.

After running out of plaster cloth and hot glue stick, work stalled for a couple of days.

Plaster cloth came about the time I was returning home from Walmart with the glue sticks, so work could continue.

The grain elevator area is just about closed in.

Basic landforms in this are are done! Time to start skim coating and making the shape look better.

Some trivia: 19 rolls of plaster cloth were used in the elevator scene.

Time to do a clean-up and get back to running some trains!

I'm peeling up tape now, and cleaning track.

Going to try and get a video up soon of a train running through the mountains.

Awesome, Mike! Can't wait to see a train going through!

It just so happens I painted a bunch more rail today but I won't post an update... I'd hate to upstage you

Just kidding. Great job can't wait to see the progress!

Lucky you ! It's always my wife who has the good ideas. Never me !

Where are the trains ? And the video(s) ?

Problem has been lack of desire for the last couple of weeks!

 

[Colbert]

No train is coming. What's going on ?

OK you've had your fun, now back to the train room

In all seriousness, I'm in the same boat. Haven't done anything for a while

When God made heaven and earth...no mention of any trains

Question...because i absolutely suck at it, how do you connect the plaster to the wood where the railroad sits on? I did same plastic scenery with the bandaid but at that edge where the plaster gets to the roadbed it's just sits on it.
