To make your own flock, use maple tree sawdust. The finer the better. you can treat it with glycerine and other chemicals to pull out the cellulose and Semi-cellulose, & effluents which removes dye / pigments from virtually anything so you would have no color distortion, and you have you own environmentally flock and Pigments that will never break down and fall apart like the Woodland Scenics, a stuffnd the other guys... i cant believe they sell twigs for &9.00. I have tons of maple, oak, cherry, walnut, hickory, Osage Orange, cherry.... sawdust if any one wants some, they make great pigments / products for weathering and texture. Just seal them with UV protection . Also have lots of shale in 40 different colors, Flint & coal .. A very large train yard is not too far away..
Looks great!
I also remember flyboy made some amazing backgrounds of houses buildings in remnants. I think I have some of the woofers pictures saved somewhere if I find them I'll post them to my Flickr and post them here.normandy wrote:Thanks Jon.
I remember the woofers display as well, it was very impressive. I'd love to have the space for something
like that. I had saved the pictures of it but sadly they've been lost with the photo bucket pay or loose your
pics program.![]()
Still working on this display base, I may have a few pictures tomorrow.
