Shamus I was wondering if you had in the past posted a how to to create the bark look on the logs? I use my saw and scrape but don't like this to much in nscale.

Looking good. Can't wait to see the finished scene.
Have you done a thread or can you give a link to how the mountains are made. I presume it's some type of hard-shell.
Looks great.

Hi, and thanks.

Have you done a thread or can you give a link to how the mountains are made. I presume it's some type of hard-shell.

For all my scenery mountains I use interlaced card covered with brown parcel tape, thats what you are seing now. Later I shal go over the lot with undercoat plaster to create the rock effect.

To create the bark effect, I simply use a heavy rasp to make the bark effect.

That's going to be a great looking scene when done, Shamus. Looking forward to seeing the end result.

Paul, that A-class Shay looks fantastic!

So does the rest of your growing layout. I'm glad you are back at modeling at full strength.
