Train room preparation
Posted by corsair7 on Tuesday, September 9, 2008 2:48 PM

I've painted the walls, now I need to paint the clouds.

I've had several suggestions for doing that including using an airbrush, standard paint brushes and even sponge brushes. I've also watched the Dream-Plan-Build video and I've read Tony Koester's book on doing it as well. Still I would like to hear some more suggestions. You'll find pictures of the room below.

The paint I used was Behr 560C-3 and called Holiday Road. It went on nicely with a roller. The clouds shold go on over this. While the photos may not show it but all the walls are the same shade of blue and not purple.

Here are my clouds done freehand with spray cans.
