Hi Crew,
Well, my latest project involves refreshing a depot scene and adding a backdrop to it. Looking at my mirrors, I decided I needed to start redoing some sections of my layout. They may be fun and useful… but the mirrors do present one BIG problem. I’ve been reflecting on how to fix it, procrastinating, really.
The problem is they show the unfinished edge of the table in their reflection. As you can see, I even stuffed colored cloth in the crack. It’s finally time to improve this. First I had to remove the structures. This depot made a nice impression, but I’ll have to freshen it up.
The area is stripped of trees, buildings and such, and vacuumed.
I found some scrap gator board that had an irregular shaped hole in it from a mountain project. This worked for the backdrop.
I hope this works. Ideas on how to paint and/or install the backdrop would be appreciated.
