Thanks Gary. I did condsider airbrushing the ash, but figured it was easier to take it off and lay the paving sand down instead.
With such a big area painting it would have been a big jibed any areas that weren't glued properly would have been blasted off the baseboard, creating more work.

I am very happy with the transformation so far. Some detailing to go though.

Thanks Ian. Yes the Tiger is an Airfix kit. Nice little thing isn't she. Although the student pilot seems a little reluctant to take her up.

Thanks Pete. The glow and flicker of the amber led really adds something to the scene that the signal box forms. I'm really happy with the result so far.

Thanks Gormo. The cattle dock has been there for some time but the addition of grass and weeds around it helps it to fit into the scene a bit better I think.

 

A new vege plot has been created for the signalman to tend. The wood border will be painted and weathered when I get a chance.
I've used Noch laser cut plants and some foam flocking material for the lettuce and cabbages. The soil is the track ballast mixed with burnt umber acrylic paint and matt medium.

Thanks Toto. I have a long list of small jobs to complete that will ultimately end in the layout being one large collection of small cameos. So the first vege plot has a tick in the box.
