THE JUNKYARD ... POST #3






I started out by gluing another Lemax plaze piece to the first one. I angled it in such a way to suggesta staircase. I then started to glue the craft sticks into place. The craft sticks represent the abandoned railroad line. Then along the far side of the railroad line I glued in place several pieces of toys that would fuction as junk that the Gobbers collected over the years. I used Kinex Gears, Barrels, Plastic Sprue Chunks, Arms and Legs from Mechwarrior toys, and other cool bits. I also glued some small stones and rocks into place.



Now it was time for paint and flock. I used some left-over green texture paint that was old and needed using. This was simply to use up the texture paint as well as to cover up the "beaded" look of the white foam.



Next I spray painted the entire thing for a base coat. I didn't mind that the spray paint melted (or "ate") some of the foam. That was fine. Then I drybrushed the craft sticks and painted the rest of the board using craft paints. I then used the white glue to flock the entire board.
