continued lol <br /> for paved roads, I use black construction paper, dull side up, I cut it to width, make a template for lines, paint the lines on the road, weather it with a light gray wash, let it dry, and glue it right to the layout, then i take dirt or gravel for the berms, and put it on the same way as I described for dirt roads above. Dont worry if some dirt/gravel or paint gets on the road sides, it adds to the effect, you can take a little black paint and lightly paint in wearmarks from traffic if you desire, but dont go to heavy on this
