Modeling with foam board

Belgium railroad modelling expert Rik Martens shows how a fairly simple material as foam board can be used to make all kinds of structures.

In part 1 of this 2-part series we learn how to select the right foam board, how to make brick walls, concrete structures, water, windows and doors. Some tutorials in this exclusive series also cover painting, gluing and other processing.

In part 2 we learn how to make bricks in a large scale, cobblestone, limestone walls, asphalt roads, rock walls, zinc roof and how to use flexible foam.
