Small Stamp Mill

[cnrglen]

Since I took the last photos I removed more hillsides and scenery so the new scenery will blend better.

I took he hill running around the corner on the left out as well as leveling everything off on the right so I could stack extruded foam up on a flat surface. The two areas with back rectangles are going to be retaining walls.

I made the mill removable for maintenance by framing it's footprint with thinner pieces of foam. I've glued all the foam pieces together with carpenter's glue.

my plan is to have the mill's supply track (non-operational) curve in from the left along the foam roadbed I created. I got some old code 70 track from another modeller which I'll be using.

After roughing in the mountain with foam I'll be working with the area to the left of the mill, filling in the hill side like I did with the right.

Last weekend I went on a bit of a shopping spree for this project at an estate sale. after roughing in with foam I'll use the plaster cloth to cover it all before I start to add some rocks and ground cover. I don't plan on building an entire rock face this time, more like hill sides that have rocks showing through.
