Adding realistic paved roads to your model railroad is much easier than it looks! In this simple tutorial I step you through all the techniques and methods for adding a great looking country road to your scenery.
These roads look fantastic and it doesn’t take much to add some great looking details like cracks, road repairs and realistic looking road shoulders. This technique applies to any scale whether it’s HO, N, 1/35th scale wargaming or even architectural modeling, the techniques are the same.
