Porto, Jorge Solution Book Rail Center. Band 4: Railway Scenery

For model railroaders, one of the great attractions of their hobby is the ability to recreate almost any type of environment on a smaller scale, allowing a variety of locomotives and railcars to be displayed in a limited space. In addition, there are dozens of accessories that enhance any environment while offering a surprising degree of realism. Among all the possible environments, those depicting natural landscapes and vegetation stand out in particular, as they allow trains to be highlighted through a contrast of colors, textures, and materials. The solid and often muted colors of the trains, created by use and the passage of time, are enhanced by the countless shades and colors of the natural landscape. This contrast gives the model liveliness and authenticity and allows the railway pieces to blend impressively into their surroundings. This guide teaches a variety of construction and painting techniques that you can use to build realistic landscapes for your model railways, including effective weathering effects. This useful step-by-step guide shows you all the products you need and which are best suited to achieving the results described. If you follow the recommended application sequence and drying times, you will be rewarded with excellent results.
