Søren's Model Railway Pages

In part 3, I paint the new road and blend the new scenery with the existing one.

In part 2 we look at laying the road using the Woodland Scenics Road System. The Road System is an easy to use system that gives you stunning results. You can choose to follow the guide in the box, but you can also use your imagination and create all sorts of cool road features.

Last year I built a winter diorama to have a nice display for Christmas. I think a model winter landscape is a fun way of displaying trains in the holiday season. I was not very happy with the back side of the station. I thought I needed some sort of better solution for the road that is supposed to be there. I also did not like the way the freight shed connected with the parking lot. This year it is time for a new parking lot and road.

Dead trees can boost the realism of a forest scene or just add variation to your diorama or model railway layout. This article is about how I made a simple dead pine tree using an armature from a Woodland Scenics Realistic Tree Kit and some colours.
