Dear model railroad friends,
The time has finally come. After 3 years of construction, the layout and the landscape are nearing completion. Shortly before the end, there is one construction measure that has it all, which simply changes everything completely - the installation of a background.
This comes from Modellbahning, printed on 1mm thick polystyrene sheets (self-supporting and can be laid perfectly around curves). The motif is called Bavaria with mountains and a typical Alpine landscape - 9 meters long and 70 cm high.
It is mounted on a wooden construction using magnets so that it can be removed at any time.
This is important to me when I'm still building at the station, maintaining or cleaning the layout, but also for filming.
In addition to the background, I also make a clean layout edge. Holes and screws are filled and sanded. The picture is rounded off by painting in the color anthracite.
All in all, the result is fantastic. Rarely has the wowww effect been as great as with the new background... Depth effect, color tone, transition all very harmonious.
I hope you enjoy the video.
Best regards Hans
