Thanks, much appreciated! I'll probably have to do some trimming so there is room for the scenery , trees and bushes.

Really appreciate your still doing these videos for us! It is great to follow the progress and yes, doing what's needed to keep the motivation up is the best way. To many stalled projects started with the best intentions but failed cause of size or priorities.

It's called a brace, not a splint.. Shapersheet from Woodland Scenics is ideal for making very lightweight removable mountains...

I always enjoy stepping back after the rough landforms go in, because you can start to appreciate the vision coming together. Sometimes, this will even make the layout seem larger than it really is as the different scenes begin to be formed, as opposed to a bare tabletop. Terraforming is fun!

Absolutely! Now the creative juices start flowing for the overall look of the scenery and details.

Joey, you are on fiyah with this project! Perhaps you can fill the gaps with balls of newspaper and use plaster cloth or paper towels dipped in plaster. That would be light enough to remove the diorama when needed. Just a thought. I'm sure whatever you do will be well done. Please keep the wonderful progress coming.

If you look back through the years of videos I have on here, I did that on a previous one. Most of the layouts thus far were sectional/portable and it needed to be light. The consideration I have here is that O Scale trees are large and simply poking the trunk down through plaster cloth won't hold them up. I have some ideas...
@luvindemtrains Жыл бұрын
Joey, I understand and that is correct about the trees. I have also seen where those empty spaces are filled in using the same technique you used with the vertical sections of foam. It's a bit more work but will give you that surface that will hold trees, etc. This also would allow for a more solid surface if you decide to add any rock work. With this technique you have the option of using plaster cloth or not. If not, you would simply fill in the cracks with sculptamold, plaster, or whatever you'd like and the rest is history.

Ya know, with how close you have the hillside coming to the track, it's almost a shame you didn't model the Wasp Rock tunnel on the CSX James River Sub. It would make for a nice excuse for a simple rock-cut tunnel to add to the layout and it would be pretty easy to put in true scale since it's only about 120 feet in length.
@tracksidescenery Жыл бұрын
Ha, I know that tunnel! And actually when I shot the video, in part I said " and maybe a short tunnel here", but I cut that out because I was rambling.

The foam land forms look good! Nice and lightweight. I have a 16'x24" shelf layout, and used your Valley Flats backdrops to great success. But I added the masonite to the end wall as well, 24", and wrapped a 4' section of the back drop around the 90 degree corner. That way I had backdrop for photos looking straight down the track or at angles into the corner. Will you be doing that as well? Looking forward to more progress!
@tracksidescenery Жыл бұрын
If you remember the Spruce layout and have ever seen photo, yes, that is how I did those long "looking down the track" photos. They were temporary backdrops just for the photos, as the layout was portable.

Will you be using something like a Tortoise machine to throw your switches? How will you mount the Tortoise machine under the foam?
@tracksidescenery Жыл бұрын
Hi Bill, yes, I think in the previous 1 or 2 videos agi I showed a whole shelf of machines that I have used and used again on multiple layouts. Look back that the recent videos where I show a little laser cut basswood mount that I glue them to and then can mount under the layout.
