    Seriously Dundee Paul your layout scenics are damn realistic, I think the idea of reusing the spent plaster is a great one. I couldn't quite see where you where taking this scenery a few weeks ago but now I can and again I'm liking this project a lot.:tophat::tophat::tophat: As said to Toto we are hoping to come up to Dundee for the show and I'm excited to see your work in the rock as it were. :thumbs:

    Gary - Checked with Toto, and he reckons it's out on a technicality - he just has to think of which one it is :whatever:

    A bit more work on greenery touching the ballast



    The dirt track


    And the path that goes on to the next board towards the bothy - ah you've not seen that yet :avatar:

    Now I'm liking the subtle incursion of vegetation onto the four foot. :thumbs: Touches like that bring a layout out into full character.

    The rubble at the foot of the rock face is good too!

    Although I think it needs darkening down a bit, the only issue I have with it is I've used Cat litter, which when wet absorbs moisture then breaks down :facepalm:

    The hairspray is showing promise, spray the cat litter (clean & unused I may add) with hair spray then paint etc once dry.

    I thought you said you would use the screwdriver bashed PoP leftovers? Or was that Toto?

    Nah ..... that was his nibs. I still have some waste casts that have been cut and snapped etc so I probably will crush some up a bit more and use as rocks. I must admit, I thought you had given up on the day litter though. I thought it was too regularly shaped. However ..... if its working...... why not. Even a sprinkling of grey ballast here and there. That is rock after all.
