There is still lots of work to do.
Here is some shots I took Sunday 11/26/00.
If you shoot from the right angle it almost looks complete.
I had to adjust the track elevation, and ended up with a vertical face.
I used joint compound and spatula. After it was 90% dry I ruffed
it up with a small wire brush. Then after it dryed, I painted it
with gray and black water colors. I added some shrubs to make the
transition from face to turf. I need to go back and flock the surface
below the shrub line.
The house is hiding the bolt that is the handle. I suspect I
will use something else to hide it in the end. On the back side of
the vertical adjustment, I used brown flocking, To get it on
that face I put it on a sheet of paper and gently blew it onto the surface.
It needs more attention.
You an also see that all the outside is still in need of flocking.
I might have to break out my little compressor to spray flock onto the
mountain sides.
Gravel between the roadbeds. It looks like I need some whiter gravel
to match the s-helper. This is 'Buff' colored ballest with some Talus
(Rock debris) that is larger and the correct color. More adjustment
is needed. The rails & ties need to be wiped off, that extra flocking
is not glued there.
