Thanks for the photo shop info.. I have pretty good success w/ airbrushing my rail, masking switch points and holding a piece of paper behind to block overspray, it goes really fast! David. BAC V RR.
Good tips! If you model your buildings separately, when your done at the work bench you can set them up on the layout to store them until you can figure out their permanent home. I like to model each of my buildings with its own base and scenery for this purpose! Makes them easier to incorporate into the layout.
Awesome cool video! I was wondering if it would be more logical to simply spray paint the entire rail and ties with Rust-Oleum... and then wipe the tops of the rails with thinner or thousand grit sandpaper?
Pheeeew !! I was worried I'd have to decipher an English accent again !! Far as spraying switches (TOs), I have sprayed many of them and the paint never has ruined one of them physically or electronically...Switches are not as delicate the way we're made to believe. Paint em any way you like and later just file, sand, rub away any paint where necessary. And you don't need to mask anything either.. Those pens are more problematic than a light spray is..The felt gets shredded by the different things sticking out. Don't believe me ? Spray one switch and see how easy it is to make it function normal. Most times it's zero work needed; nothing ruined. M
Amazing how a few temporary photos for the backdrop made a HUGE difference.

Very good presentation.
Thanks Gerry.
Some good tips!
Hi, nice video. Greetings from Germany Ralf
Amazing.
Are you wiping down the tops of the rails after you use the paint pen? Are you just using a dry cloth or a solution to do that?
I was kind of wondering about that myself.
I guess this channel doesn't respond to questions.

Cool.
