Kicking Horse River Sub


Well I haven't done anything trains since July. The bug finally bit me again and I have been busy the last week here and there. This is a preview of what I have been working on. I started with a black wash diluted with isopropyl alcohol to give the base for the granite monoliths you see before you. Yellows, browns, blacks, and rusts to follow to really make them pop.

Added more colours to the rock cuts. Worked on highlights, strata and metal rust deposits.

After a few more washes it was time to detail and weather with chalk powders. You can see the strata a bit more blended. Dirt spots and natural rust areas.

Only thing left is sealing it with either diluted white glue or Matt clear spray. Haven't made up my mind. Any thoughts. After this I can start doing the tutorial vid on the other sides rock faces.

Been a while since my last post been working on the yard. Put down the pad for the engine facility. Painted the depot pad concrete, and finished ballasting. The yard in field BC is all gravel so modelling this using sanded tile grout, been doing it in layers and it's coming out great.
Let me know what you think.
