We were fortunate enough to have Doug Foscale of FOS Scale Models on this week’s mid-week model building toolbox talk to tell us about how we can all use taskboard to create streets, sidewalks, walkways, docks and more.
We’ve already know about the use of taskboard and actually have started to use it within out city for sidewalks and such, but Doug took the idea and added to it on this episode by giving us some ideas on how we can add more detail by adding simple real-life wear and tear to the taskboard sidewalks and streets.
He covers some really quick and easy methods to create lifted concrete, potholes, and more defects. But not only does he explain a cool way to make them, he also gives us some more golden tips on how to weather them from filling the potholes in with dirt, mod podge and paint to create puddles, static grass tips and more!
Taskboard is such a fun medium to work with on our dioramas and layouts and when you get a sheet or two, it can go a long way when working in our scale or similar sized model railroad scales.
Thanks for the modeling tip Doug!
