Pardon the can of soda but I wanted to show some of the colors I used to bring the portal to life. This is a cast plaster portal that was used on a friend's layout. It has to be about 35 years old and comes from a mold made by another friend.
The wing walls are made by Scenic Express and are an expanded foam product. So, trying to get the colors consistent was a challenge.
So, our desert scene here is nearing completion.
It seems to tie together well.
Now for the addition of ground foam. I was not totally thrilled with how this came out so made some changes as I looked at it over time.
I want to add a cinder road that leads up to the portal and have to figure out how to get that done.
This is the backdrop after covering it with clear plastic to protect the photo as it is not truly color fast, I raised it up to have a better perspective and am thinking of how I can integrate that into the scene, and make that white base disappear.
That is the roll of plastic in the foreground. The photo runs about 25 feet.
