Yellow Pelican Mining Co. May Day update.

Work on the narrow gauge layout has continued over the May Day Bank Holiday. The rocky outcrops have been finished and I have started to texture the groundwork. The rocks have been modelled from various foam off cuts and blended-in with both DAS and Modelling Compound. The groundwork texturing is a mix of sieved stones, sand and cat litter applied over PVA glue and then 'flooded' with 'wet water' - water to which I have added a drop of washing up liquid. 

Throughout the work, I have been careful to avoid clogging up any inside track areas or crossings.

The rear has been further detailed with more off cuts of plywood and any gaps filled with DAS.


My next job will be to fill any screw holes in the fascia before adding some paint to the scenery.
