So progress is full steam ahead with the board.
First up the theatre. I chose to paint it in a pretty plain scheme (due to talent) and it turned out pretty good. I followed much the same process as I did for the tenement buildings.
I still have to do some weathering on them (with sprays), a bit more detail work and maybe print out a few movie posters as well. Then I will call this one done.
The trees (from 4ground) also have got the bases they need to fit into the slots in the verge. I will flock and texture these bases to match the board.
Board 4 (the one across the road from the theatre) has also received some work.
Footpath pieces (which were cut out previously) were glued on, textured and painted. The roads were also finished off (markings as well) and the centre verge flocked. To give you context, in the above picture, the theatre will face the road at the bottom.
The empty space on board 4 (above) will mostly have a removable urban park and will probably be one of my last things to do on this project.
Along with this batch of stuff, I bought some smaller pieces (bus shelter, bins and crates) which I will use as scatter terrain. I intend to get some more pieces (phone box, benches etc) in due course. In saying that I also built and finished the bus shelter, it was a great little project and brings the board alive!
Next steps now are to start work on the final board, board 3 (which has the service station), finish off the detail on the theatre, finish off the scatter terrain (bins and boxes), get a few vehicles for the streets and make the park!
Until next time.
