Thought I would join this section now as I have to say I am gripped by the work you are doing, those moulds of yours are great and reminds me of being a kid and using LINKA moulds with my dad for the railway.

I have to say your dedication has to be admired and that is one hell of load of scenery must be a bitch to take with you


I think the hills are pink insulation foam, but could be wrong …..

Any way great work

Nope The fill for the wall segments is crushed up excess dental stone, the bases are "hardboard" and everything else is Pink insulation foam. as for the sleep deprivation... I'm already cracked only thing left is rivets...

I see the drips in the bottom of your box..Are those splatter from the airbrush? If so, try lowering your air pressure slightly, might help. I made a huge mess until I figured that out.

seeing now those pics a bit bigger than in the other gallery...i wonder...what did you use for the "brown" sections of the hills? is it some kind of flock or just sand and grain?
