APA Micro Layout (Part 4) Backdrop and tracks

A quick update on my Car Shop Micro Layout.

To break the clear blue sky a bit, I drybrushed some white paint to it. The effect is minimal but looks more realistic than a plain blue backdrop.


I still had to puzzle around with the tracks to locate the turnouts.


I painted the assembled RIX highway overpass with Floquil concrete color. After thoroughly drying I applied some decals from my kit left-overs. The hole in the backdrop is concealed quite nicely.


I will bury an old tankcar body to act as a water storage tank. The graffiti decals are already applied.

Stay tuned for more updates.
