Tricky Backdrop For Model Railroad Layout
Cal is in the process of creating a backdrop for his model railroad layout and would like to hear from readers who have made a backdrop. Here is his question:
“I would like to put up a curved backdrop to be paintable as sky & clouds. Where can I find a roll of cardstock about 36″ high that will work? I need about 50′ roll. Is there something better to use?”
