Thanks, Mark!
Working on a few small-ish projects simultaneously for the small town. First, I'm doing the scenic details around the lighthouse. I started adding in some grass, bushes, etc, to see how it looks. Note bad so far, but more work to do:
This bridge needed a way for pedestrians to get across, so I added a 'sidewalk' between the sidewalks:
I'm also experimenting with using joint compound for asphalt roads, since I had some leftover from a bathroom remodel. I did a little on the end (leading to the garage) and three small parking areas out front of the buildings. Plan is to lightly sand, strategically crack, and paint when dry:
Here's an aerial view of the small town area, with lots of construction I progress:
and here's where the buildings are parked while I work on details for them. Lighting is done - working on the window details for a couple of them still:
This stack of "rocks" got their base coat and will eventually be used on the trailer park area and surrounding environs:
...and finally, I also started some ballasting in the town. A large syringe works really well for a white glue/water mix:
Here's my first attempt at ballasting:
