Digitrax "Jump" Throttle

Thanksgiving weekend and a lot of progress! I finally got around to building Merchant's Row II to get "downtown" started. The kit is simple to build, but requires a lot of painting. Most of the weekend was spent doing the paiting using all acrylic paint. I used Polyscale Reefer White, Empire Green and Oxide Red, craft paints brick red and dark grey (lightened a bit with some white).

I also finished up installation of the Rix highway bridge and paved the road to Rockeater Gravel Co. Lastly, I finished up tinting the rocks along the Raritan Creek.
