Hi I am building my first mountain and need alittle advice since I am building it as a gift for someone. I am building off a life like mountain (one of those prefab ones). I am in the process of painting it and adding the underbrush, lichen, etc to it so that it is more realistic. I would like to add 2 tunnel portals to it so it appears more realistic. The train set is a lionel O gauge I have no experience in trains so any advice will be greatly appreciated. My questions are Is it possible to add one of those prefab portals to the life-like tunnel. If so what kind of glue do I use to make it stick? Which tunnels portals are the most realistic. I looked at woodland scenics but I noticed they didn't have one to fit O gauge and I also looked at Chooch single cut portel? If I am able to use the portal with the life -like mountain, do I buy a portal that is an exact gauge fit or do I need one larger to fit exactly on the mountain? Is there any better way to make the tunnel portal such as using talus and placing on them the mountain my self Thanks in advance for any tips or advice on how to make my mountain look great [:)]
