Bring More Detail to the Streets Around Your Layout
 
Realistic streets aren't just pavement and buildings. Sidewalks, corners, crossings and small street details are what help turn an open area of your layout into a believable environment.
 
The DigCom Designs Sidewalks kit provides a versatile collection of printable sidewalk sections designed to work with streets and avenues in a wide variety of layout scenes.
 
The kit includes straight sidewalk sections with details commonly found in real-world sidewalks, including:
Simulated concrete cracks
Realistic concrete weathering
Sewer/manhole covers
Fire hydrant markings
Markings for common street signs
Multiple sidewalk configurations
 
Corners, Driveways & Crosswalks
The kit isn't limited to straight sections.
 
Included are sidewalk sections for:
22° corners
45° corners
90° corners
Driveway entrances
Sidewalk ends
2 different corner crosswalk configurations
Accessibility ramps and markings
 
And because individual sections can be trimmed to virtually any desired length, you can adapt the kit to the shape and requirements of your own layout.
 
Build Your Own Sidewalk Thickness
 
The printable sidewalk sections are designed to be mounted over thin styrene sheet or cardstock to create the characteristic raised thickness of a real sidewalk above the surrounding road surface.
 
Each kit includes templates that can be used to cut the supporting material to the required shape.
Simply:
 
Print → Cut → Mount → Glue → Build your sidewalk
 
This construction method also makes it easy to create custom sidewalk shapes and lengths to fit your specific scene.
 
More Coming
The Sidewalks kit is the first part of a larger roadside and street-detail system currently being developed.
 
Future additions will include:
Bus stop bays
Wider residential sidewalk sections
Wider commercial sidewalk sections
Additional configurations
2-Lane Road Surface prints
 
Together, these will provide even more flexibility for creating complete streets and commercial areas.
 
Complete the Scene
The Sidewalks kit works especially well with existing DigCom Designs layout-detail products such as:
Road Signs — Item #RSS-1
Road Barriers — Item #RCB-1
 
Combine them with buildings, vehicles, utility details and other layout accessories to create a much more complete roadside environment.
