The New River Bed193 viewsI have redone the river bed, and am now alot happier. This time the bed has been done with sandstone from the garden which has been smashed up to form jagged rocks, and fine sand which look as a proper river bed would. Much better start to the scenery

Through the Powerstation192 viewsThis shot shows the route the track will take into the powerstation. It will then exit out of the back, as can be seen from the purple line. An hole needs to be cut through the back for the hidden return line.
|

|
Moved Back190 viewsThe powerstation will be now loacted further back than originally planned (as seen here) due to the curves of the track being too tight originally.
|

|
More expanding Foam189 viewsThe area directly behind the powerstation has been leveled off to make part of the hill area and to level out the powerstations base
|
|
Some Scatters (Upper Level)189 viewsI have layed some scatters on the layout aswell.
Here is the area around the upper river. There will be a series of trees around here, and so the grass is slightly greener as the trees incourage the grass to grow.

Part of the Front Hill187 viewsI have done part of the front hill as it can be made without making track laying difficult.

Some Scatters (Lower Level)187 viewsI have layed some scatters on the layout aswell.
This is the area around ther river. The colours here are more yellow to reprisent the sand around the river. I have added a rock here which has slowly weathered away to form a pillar.

An how to of laying Scatters187 viewsStage 3: Final covering
Step 1: Before the glue from the previous stage has dried, sprinkle on a thin final layer of scatter [You can add varying colours of scatter to the grassland]. This layer will soak up some of the glue from before and stick itself to the layout.
|
|
An how to of laying Scatters185 viewsStep 2: Finally, just lightly mist the scatters with tap water. This will help the glue draw up into the top layer, and stop the scatters blowing away while they dry.
And there you have it. Leave for 24 hours to fully dry, and you will have one well scattered, realistic area
