Juan Carlos HOn3

Juan Carlos resides in Southern California. His HOn3 layout, which is still under construction, is just fabulous. Mountains that extend high into the room, track winding thru mountain scenery and the many highly detailed structures, gave one the feel of Colorado magic.

Hope the following pictures do the layout justice.

Sit back and join me, on my travels, no matter what prototype you maybe modeling..

Juan Carlos. Marc, usually a quiet gentleman, giving a few tips.

Great Mountain scenery with a little help from Juan’s mates.

Water colors in spray bottles is what was used to paint the rocks castings.
Use a 12oz water spray bottle, squeze about one inch of the paint into the bottle, a drop of dishsoap.
The colors are burnt and raw sienna, burnt and raw umber, yellow, cobalt blue, and grey.
