Count me in as a follower on this one Lynn!  You're off to a great start.  This one's on the shelf but I don't when I'll ever get to it.  It'll be fun to see what you do with it.  ;)

Let's get an update in, I got the railings installing on the trestle.
Got the Durhams Water Putty down on the roads .
Got the concrete painted and weathered as well the stone walls on the shack.
I used I think 6 colours on the stone building walls doing washes , let dry then have a watered down black wash.
I also started the wood ramp and the open shed framing.

As usual I appreciate criticism and suggestions, can't say I enjoyed weathered the concrete and I may still do more to it

Everything looks great Lynn. I think your coloring of materials is spot on.

I wasn't happy with the concrete on the base so I've been playing around a bit more , I think it's better but it's still not there. Thoughts ?

Lynn, You may want to try a craft paint from Ceramcoat called "Mudstone".

That's a good color for weathering and drybrushing, too.

I still have mud in floquil, I think I may be just about there . I'm going to let it completely dry and try some light coloured chalks to see if I can blend in the oil stains and ramp area a bit .
