HARRY POTTER TRAINS

In Honor of the last Harry Potter film to ever be made Model Railroad 101 has decided to teach people to add things from the movies into their layout.

Make Hogwarts on a Backdrop

To Make Hogwarts you will need a Backdrop that has about ¼  of the bottom painted green for grass.
Step One: Go to Google Images  and Hogwarts Castle Wall Paper you will need an Image that has the entire castle.  I will use an Image from abstract.desktopnexus.com
Step Two: Cut the castle out on a sheet of paper. Make Sure you cut the outline of the castle out AND ONLY THE CASTLE if you want you can also cut out some of the ground
Step Three:  After you have cut the Castle out take some Elmer’s glue and spread it around the back of the picture.
Step Four: Press the picture against the backdrop and let the glue dry

Harry Potter Billboards

Print Harry Potter Pictures onto business cards (you can laminate them if you want) Then Take two 4 inch strands of thick copper wire and hot glue them to the back.  Let this dry then apply to layout.          


OTHER TIPS

If you have a Movie Theatre you could make it look like the Midnight Premiere for  the movie buy adding 100’s of Mini people and Lots of Harry Potter signs.

WE LOVE YOU HARRY!!!
