John Bursett's O-gauge Model Railroad

Some more work on John Bursett's O-gauge Model Railroad today in Seattle. The base coat was applied and the final touches on the plaster "dirt". Tomorrow, I'll finish the road, I'll sand it down and paint it "aged asphalt". I will also apply ground cover and static grass if I have time. I should look nice before I take off for Portland to work on Jerry Zaret's O-scale Model Railroad for a week. I outlined the base of the building and then cut and chipped out hole for the building to set flush in the ground. I then pour some plaster and spray the surface with water to get a smooth level finish. When dry, the building will set snug into the base in the ground. This way the buildings can be loose to change out LED's or for any other reason.
