More track pieces taking shape

Greetings everyone,
 This will be a long process painting each individual track and using styrofoam to extend the sides on each piece...the reason for extending the sides is the track is for 1/32 cars and I'll be running 1/24 so I need more track side to side. Some of the pics show the transition from dirt to cement.

My direction has gone astray

Greetings everyone,
Well I was about to buy a couple of Confederate big guns from T.A.Miniatures, but I decided to build  another slot car track first, since I've got another room in the basement for a good size track and I'm in the process of building a few 1/24 scale slot cars, why not have a track.  What I'm going to build is a European rally track with all the scenery, so It sort of fits in with the terrain building. The first project are 3 pieces of track which will be an overpass. Starting with a plain black plastic track...the transformation starts...
