Trucks and Stuff

Been working on some trucks and accessories for the area under construction.  Above are some completed trucks, and the buildings and loading ramps are now painted and weathered.




I thought I would try some resin truck kits from Sylvan Scale Models, from Ontario.  Sylvan offers truck models not available in ready-to-run.  Above are a couple of in-process shots.  They look nice, but are very time consuming to build.

Meanwhile, the area all this goes in continues under construction.  The terrain and roadways are plastered and painted.  The roads here will be hard-packed dirt, so the base paint color is the same - the textured dirt material goes on next, and will differentiate the roads from the terrain.
