AK Terrains Small Railroad Ballast 1/72
AK Interactive AK8256 Small Railroad Ballast is a natural loose material designed for railroad tracks, embankments, track edges, industrial scenes, and fine stony surfaces. The fine grain size is particularly suitable for railroad scenes in 1:72 and H0 scales.
Recommended Procedure
- First, prepare the terrain shape and paint the base in a complementary shade. This will ensure that any gaps between the grains are not noticeable once dry.
- Apply white glue, diluted white glue, or AK118 to the selected area. For larger rocks, work in smaller sections.
- Sprinkle the material irregularly and press it down lightly. After it dries, brush off or vacuum up any excess.
- Once cured, you can even out the surface with pigment, a wash, a dry brush, or very thin acrylic paint.
For stronger adhesion, we recommend AK Interactive AK118 Gravel & Sand Fixer.
