KY Rock & Asphalt - 4x4 On30 Layout

Thanks guys!
Galen,
I sprayed everything with flat black spray paint, & then I dry-brushed with acrylic paint - (raw umber, raw sienna, & titanium white)

I've started on the roof of the cabin...
I decided I would try to make "wood" shingles from styrene, after I found a real thin sheet in my box of goodies...
A few years ago, I tried this on an N scale structure...it worked OK, but I'm thinking this will work even better in the larger scale...
I cut a strip of the styrene 2 scale feet wide...I score it with sandpaper to look like wood grain, & then I randomly make cuts every 6 - 12 scale inches apart, cutting roughly halfway across the width of the strip...as you can see, the strips curl up after they've been cut, so I break them into shorter, more manageable lengths...


Here's what they look like glued to the roof...
