locating white decals on white paper

Wed, 2014-04-16 06:59 — oldkmac

Hello; Is there a way to see white decals on white or blue decal paper better? I think I read about wiping something over the sheet that allows the decal to become more visible. Thanks for all help.

Please let me know your opinion on how to cover the hills with foilage for my layout which is set in the Eastern U.S.

The pictures below are from my previous layout where I used two different methods.

 

This first picture is using ground foam, bushes, and trees along with rocks.

I thought that I had posted the track plans at one time but I guess that I had not since I could not find them on the blog. So here they are.

I've found a nice gadget - a little sound player. It can be used as a portable sound player if the loco is without sound or as a stationary sound player for example at a grade crossing: http://kleinbahnwiki.de/index.php/SoundFRED
