Lower Level Earth
February 27th, 2009
This morning I painted all the tape and baseboard an earth color. The color is called Lyndhurst Timber in Valspar Ultra Premium Base 2 (Interior flat).
Eventually a plaster/cement mixture will go over this for the final “topcoat” of earth.
HOw has your luck been getting the plaster to go ove rthe paint?
I haven’t tried it yet actually.
I’ll be using a technique I saw at Joe Fugate’s site in one of his video. It’s a mixture of patch plaster, cement, vermiculite and some colored paint powder mixed with a little water to ice cream consistency.
From the looks of it, it should go on rather easily. We’ll see.
Once I get the last bit of sub-terrain put in near that last turnout I’ll probably starting putting down the earth mixture.
