I am making progress on the mountain. In my earlier post on this string I mentioned the mountain looked like a dog dump. Well, I gave up on the airbrush and bought a few cans of spray texture. My wife has been adding accent colors using the dry brush technique then doing an over spray with the texture. I have been working on the elevations around the track and adding ballast so it is starting to look much better. Here's a few update photos.
The inside of the mountain is a cave with black lights. The train starts in the far end and ducks behind the cave wall before getting to the view ports.
Here's a shot of the ballast. Someday I'll put more between the rails as well.
