Last weeks I spent making tracks. I finished. I made 200 single tracks but finally I used "only" 194. I started cutting holes.
Next, I cut and formed single tracks, glue booth sides and track profile:
Next I cut holes using small tools what I made from nails. I made rest of track's elements but I connect only combs to the tracks.
The single tracks I connect to a box using Scotch tape and I painted one side of them using ModelMaster Gun Metal paint. When paint dried I removed the tracks and connect track's tooth. I connected again the tracks to the box and painted the second side of them.
I finished the tracks off. At the beginning I put the blend of pigments and I strengthened those fixers to pigments. When pigments dried the color changed, a nice color of dark rust came out. From the side of wheels with pencil I wiped the track which wheels are leaving behind. From the other side I wiped combs with steel paint (dry brush):
Now tracks are waiting for the final assembly.
Still small messing and there will be an end.
