Btw, when you have some time, more dioramas for 1/200 as well!
Can't wait to see the final work of this!
Grass I bought at a train hobby store (no name), cheap stuff flakes falling off all over the place, real mess. The dark grey is Krylon primer, the light grey and white is Rustolium primer and the black was just cheap brand flat black all bought at Home Depot. The lines were scribed using an Xacto knife and a steel ruler, spaced 1 inch X 1/2 in on white tarmac, spaced 1 in x 1 in on grey tarmac.

Holding off on 1/200 until some more GSE is available.
