Moving along, the remainder of today sees the construction of the concrete walls for the wood chip storage.
These are 20’ high in HO scale, they’ll be wrapped in a concrete texture simulating poured concrete sections using timber moulds, the saw dust I’ll collect from the workshop floor & form at a later date. The base structure is 8mm - 5/16" MDF board.
The Woodchip concrete storage walls take shape quickly, think I might have to slightly readjust the scale for HO, and make the sections smaller...?
I’ll add some steel styrene I - beams to the upright sections to add some more 3D depth to the walls at a later date.
This method just makes scenery & structures go so much quicker & easier!
I don't know what this "concrete texture" material is, but this looks great!

It's a printed photo Jim, it can be applied over gaming textures, models, etc. You just print them out on matte sticker sheets and you're away...
