    I just retired and N guage trains is going to be my hobby. I've watched alot of videos a about the scenery part. There are alot of great tutorials. Your video and creativity and ideas rank up there with the best of them. Never thought I'd be getting tips from someone my grandsons age.Thumbs up my friend and keep it up. I'm going to use alot of your ideas.

    I don't do model railroads, but I am a wargames miniatures player and I've always felt realistic looking terrain just enhances game immersion, so I like watching tutorials like these to get an idea of how to do similar stuff for wargamming

      Well both go hand in hand don't they? I am a model railway maker, but I often find myself checking out terrain from wargame makers.

    I am a 84 year old retiree and am trying to build an HO scale model Railroad. your Tutorials have been quite helpful and informative. I have watched many model train videos, most of which are way out of my league. I appreciate your approach. I am watching from Rialto, California, USA.
    Keep up the good work.

    WOW finally something i can start with! The white paper is dirt cheap now adays and so this will help me finnaly get started with what i was not looking forward tot to do. it may seem easy for some people but to do this with in a budget is not easy! Cardboard can be found all around just as paper. Plaster can be found at the dollar/euro store just like paint. This did help me a lot!

    When working with plaster to model landscapes or walls (like the portal). it might help to add color immediately. This way, the plaster wouldn't shine through as white, if it gets scratched later on. If you like to have some shades, you might also try to add additional paint while the plaster is still damp - medieval artists called this technique 'fresco'.

    • @jefwisse1957
      @jefwisse1957 2 года назад +2

      Nice reaction. I'm gonna try this. However I don't use plaster but paper to create hills and mountains but mixing paint with the wet paper might work.

    That was a great video showing how you bring all of your creations together. I am building my own railroad in N scale and have been 3D designing and printing most everything for it. I have even began creating 3D design tutorials. As a matter of fact I'm currently working on a tutorial showing how to 3D design a tunnel portal, and after watching this video you have given me a great idea to see if I can design a detailed interior tunnel portion. Thanks for all of your hard work and wonderfully edited videos.

    • @TheCreativeModellerHO

    • @davidmitchell1239
      @davidmitchell1239 2 года назад +2

      I/m doing the same. My Dad and I built an HO layout and I’ve always wanted to recreate it. He would have loved it. Some of my fondest memories are of the both of us working on it after dinner. The journey is half the fun, creating it, getting it just right…in fact, I doubt I would ever be finished.

    @bozotheclown935 Год назад +1

    I like your video kid.
    I made a lot of scenery. I was lucky that my brother worked in a gypsum factory and I got casting plaster by the 20 Kg bag.
    I never used the Styrofoam because I am in fear of sparks and fire. I did my initial casting using steel fly screen and profiling that as a first layer. It was strong as hell and could withstand someone leaning on it accidentally.
    I used to cast my tunnel entrances using casting plaster and an aluminium mould. The mould was essentially scribed in a thick aluminium foil.
    I like what you did though, and I always found making the scenery more fun than playing with the trains.

    Another nice one. I can hardly wait to see what is next. I will be interested to see how you make your modelling compound. I guess it would be similar to the one made by Marklin of Sweden. I am probably at about the same stage with my model as you are but I have about 25 metres of track in N gauge. I have been making some dioramas to fit in to the scenery. That has enabled me to work at a bench rather than on the model itself. Good luck.
