Been working on continuing the scenery behind the station with static grass and then I tried my hand at making some bushes using dried out fine twigged weeds I pulled out of the side of the path along the guided bus way in Cambridge on my lunch break walk! These were finely coated in PVA and then dipped into various Woodland scenic scatters.
Around the signal box I wanted a pretty unruly unloved bushes, which is why I started on these as if I didn't get a good glue coverage it didn't really matter. I'm pretty happy with how these turned out. I have just received a package today of rubberised horse hair to make some smaller gorse/bramble type bushes to tidy up underneath the larger bushes.
Also added some light weathering and rusting to the signal and signal box so they didn't look so perfect!
And finally made some work to finish the barrowman crossing, A little tidying up to do but nearly there!
Hope it is of interest to someone.

Haha. Im not sure on Farmer Jack’s political status! Either way, it’s time to harvest the tulips and plant something new…Very nice planting. I blame global warming for the extra long flowering season. Or Brexit….. I blame most things on the dreaded B word!

Covered in Sculptamold which I personally think is the best product ever! Thew road is actually sanded polyfiller for a smoother surface. The car park is a bit of wall paper "tester roll" which has a textured surface with kinda resembles cobbles.
Seen here after being brushed over by watered down brown and grey paint. While the 15:10 service to Norwich waits to depart platform 1.
While the paint is drying I sprinkled over dried sifted dirt over the land and maybe quite surprisingly for the road dried sifted charcoal dust which saved from going in the bin last year after a BBQ. (If you check back other photos it is used along the hillside path as well). Then its on with the standard static grass, missing many shades and lengths depending on the relief of the land.
I left a few rocky outcrops behind the station car park. The big brown blob on the photo below is going to be the position for Teasel Bay's war memorial. The cobble stone car park needs some dry brushing but it is getting there :)
Does anyone read the blurb between the photos?
