- This week we are adding trees into our painted backdrop with Rob Spangler who is painting the backdrop for the 1/20.3 scale railroad at Garagemahall.
*******************************************************************
Rob shows the way he paints deciduous trees onto the backdrop, moving from dark to light, adding "sky holes" , trunks and branches and highlights.
************************************************************
This is part three of a series of shows as Rob paints the backdrop for the three track switching yard.
******************************************************
The railroad is mostly the Denver and Rio Grande Western, but also sort of generic western narrow gauge. Garagemahall will also feature a On3 and On30 railroad above the switching yard known as the "accidental railroad".
****************************************************
A 1/20.3 logging line is also planned, and about 8 feet of track has been laid for that line.
*****************************************************
In part one Rob showed the ins and outs of painting with acrylics, both artists acrylics and acrylic latex house paint. All while coning Rob to paint the backdrop for the switching yard on the Utah and Colorado
*****************************************************************
Part 2 was on working with color changing RGB LED strip lights and which double stick tapes work best for mounting LED strip lights.
