Part 2 - More Coloring of Rock Molds with Artist's Oils.

- Continuing with the coloration of the rocks. Once the latex gray wash has thoroughly dried on the rock molds, you want to come in and apply some artists oil paints. Very small dabs of this paint are all that you need. It is very strong. You're going to soak the dabs of paint with a thinner that is compatible with the oil paints. This causes a very neat effect representing mineral deposits and rust from iron deposits. I learned of this technique from Train Masters TV, a video featuring Mike Confalone.

Very nice, Ron. Very nice technique. Looks very good when done. Thanks.
One could probably get a similar effect by using pigment powders in certain areas, though you'd have to brush it on exactly where you wanted it.
Nice technique and voice too
Marvelous work, Ron.
Looks great Ron, nice how to! Cheers, Dan
Great technique Ron! Mike Confalone is a scenery wiz. I always find myself wanting to see more content from him, it always seems to come at a price though... Thanks for sharing with those who don't have Train Masters TV haha.

Glad I can help. Try it out... It's easy.
Great video. Thank you for this excellent technique....

Nice, I need to add some gray to my layout...
ron bro nice looking u make the rock and how to make it can i watch?
Ron have watched both parts and looks great, i thought the thinners may have taken
off the grey paint tho cheers Robert
+csxmad The grey wash is fine. It was unaffected by the thinner. I did highlight the top edges with a white paint, maybe that's what you're seeing.
Thanks Ron also is that foam you used and did you do a video showing this cheers Robert
+csxmad My scenery base is cardboard lathe technique, and I covered it in Plaster of Paris dipped dryer sheets. They work great. The rock castings are also made of Plaster of Paris.
when will you show the overall layout and hopefully a few trains running
I'll make a video of trains running... Soon. I want to do more scenery in the gorge area. This will give visitors something to look at other than bench work. Plus, I love doing scenery. 😀
Ron form what I'm seeing so far you should continue doing these videos you showed me a new skill on those rocks and as soon as my layout is back up and running I'm going to redo my rocks using this technique I'm modeling a bit of a twist on history instead of virginian being taken over by Norfolk &western I went with southern taking over the virginian and its been fun so far :)
