Layout Update Mondays: MOW Details

MOW area in progress.
Things have been moving on the layout over the last week.  With the Thanksgiving holiday, I was able to finish adding all of the foam landforms around the entire layout and begin the process of paving on the Young Building, Slide, and Mallery Complex modules.  The paving is not much to look at - just a lot of bright white spackle.  Each pass takes awhile to dry and it usually takes four or five before I'm happy.  This means there is not much to see until it is ready for paint.  In the meantime, I have been slowly working on painting and installing details to the M.O.W. area. The rocks and retaining wall were all painted and weathered along with the fuel unloading pad and fuel stand pad.  The jersey barriers, fuel stand, and safety bollards still need to be painted.  Overall, this scene is getting close and is now ready for ground cover.
