I live in the USA. I’m just getting started in making my diorama for my HO scale slot car track. You are, by far, the best teacher I have found. Thank you for your knowledge and kindness.
I made a mountain using your technic for my Christmas village. I do not consider myself particularly crafty but your explanation made the project easy. Since it is a winter scene I am not going to paint it, but sprinkle it with artificial snow flakes. It is now in the process of drying and I see that I need to put a few more tissues here and there but other than that it came out great. I did have some issues with the tissue tearing but it actually worked to make it more like little rocks. Thanks you so much for doing this. It is so much more realistic than styrofoam. I love the details that come out.
This effect looks awesome. I love the white detail at the end. It looks great. Don't worry about what 'they' say. That highlighting effect works very well and it looks beautiful.
@@marklinofsweden, yes it's the name of the female vampire from Sheridan LeFanu gothic romance and my nickname in RUclips. I'm a brazilian Vampire Storyteller too! :) One kiss in your heart, but without bite! ;-)
Dear Mark I'm from Brazil, I live in the city of Vitória, Capital of the State of Espírito Santo. I've been watching his videos and I've become a huge admirer of his work. Congratulations and I have been trying to learn how to make mountains with your techniques, I hope I can do it, maybe not perfectly but we will work hard to see a good result. A big hug from Brazil.
It looks SO REALISTIC! I’m planning on making a whole wall of faux rock in the near future, so this video REALLY helped me out. Thank you so very much!
Very nice. I had a really large area of mountain and ground to form, so I just used chicken wire and covered it with newspaper and papier-mâché. It worked really well, too and was very inexpensive. Thanks for sharing your methods with us.

Very good job Sir, very , very nice solution. I enjoy this tutorial and have learned very much. Excellent DIY project. Thank for sharing with us. Best Regard
Hello from upstate NY in the Adirondack Mountains! Watched your Portal Tunnel vid this morning. That was great! This is great! Love your vids! Will watch the waterfall vid next. You have me fired up to build! Thank You!
English language spoken.This video in also available in Spanish and German on my RUclips channel.Dieses Video ist in Englisch und Deutsch auf meinem RUclips-Kanal zur Verfügung.Este video también está disponible en español y alemán en mi canal de RUclips.
I am going to be trying your technique soon. I actually already went and tried the toilet paper with scenic glue to do some filling. That was really easy to work with!
You have the answer to all the "how to's" in this hobby! I've got a mountain - well, 1/2 of one and don't know how to "top" it.. Watching this video answered my problem! Thanks!!
Love all of your videos! I just started working on my new layout a month or so ago. Your videos will come in handy when trying to create mountains and the lake I am looking to add. Thank you so much for sharing your techniques with us all!
I will be uploading some videos to my channel at some point. Most likely when things are a bit more complete. Actually just took a break from working on the mountains using your technique!
I've watched many videos of making hills and mountains this is the lightest fastest clean way to make them. I's also very inexpensive to do that's the best part as long as we can get toilet paper *lol* This is the system I have decided to use on my layout. This like most of your other videos is really great I like the simplicity of the systems you use makes modeling much easier with fewer tools and co0mponents.
I like the white dry-brush effect so much, that when I built an outdoor fish pond out of real, unpainted rocks, I dry-brushed them very lightly, and the result was amazing! Since then, I dry-brush any rock or retaining wall I I’ve ever built. I just seems to make textures pop.
Great video I like the white wash too you are right about bringing out the edges. Obviously you have used a thicker grade of bathroom tissue. Enjoyed this very helpful.
Liked your technic. You have a proper way of saying how meanwhile you do the explaining. I'll try using some of your ideas on one of my future projects. Also, great job, it looks fantastic!!
Great tutorial. I followed it for the coloring of the rocks and it worked out very well! I have created a diorama (2m x 50cm) which combines a mainline in H0 and a narrow gauge (H0e) line which serves a mine. At the mine I created a rockface around the entrance to the mine (with track in it). Diorama is open on the backside to see the interior of the mine too. Setting is is Epoche I (appr. 1910) with KPEV trains. I used styrofoam for the base of the rockface and created the rocks by applying egalisation paste (what you use to fill cracks in interior walls). I sculpted rocks into this with a knife. Then I followed the painting technique as in this video. Super result! Thanks! If you want pictures, let me know your email address.
Boah! I really LOVE your style :) Can‘t wait to go on experimenting with these great techniques you’re showing. Much appreciation for your videos, very entertaining and easy to watch :)
Who are the 50 losers who thumbs down this video? They must lack intelligence or are competitors on youtube. These videos are brilliant, I've learned quite a bit. Thank you Marklin!
Thank you for your detail and easy to learn video how to make stone realistically. I would appreciate if you can share where I can buy the molding and the stone material.. thank you
I'm thinking of doing it your way vs. woodland scenics way (which I have used before and didn't like the results it came out looking to spotty and rough for a Canadian rocky scene). Maybe I will use woodland scenics again way first and if I don't like results I will use your technique. Thanks for the advice. The white emulates weathered rock in the sun (typically granite) or frost bitten slate, if it is wintertime. That is why people say it isn't natural...but it is if you apply it lightly to certain areas like you did it works amazing.
I have just started my layout,your tutorials have helped me loads i have been using aluminum foil to create the mountains as we are on a low budget and have been using copier paper in strips dipped into wallpaper paste,as there is a toilet paper shortage due to the corona virus here in the uk.
I read, several years ago, that a quick and cheap way of getting a rock cliff is to use broken tiles from a drop ceiling in a stack with the broken edges as the cliff. After they are put in place just cover them with hydrocal and paint them. I don't know if it works or not as I haven't tried it but it sounds like it would. If it does it is an idea for a new video, possibly.
This is, as you use to say, GREAT STUFF. That you have catalogued the tutorials was really the best thing you could do for your YT-chanel. Now it's easy piecy to find what you are looking fore! So the next step for the "Landscape and scenery"-tutorials would be to have a separate catalogue in German and Spanish?

No, I think I should restart my project, but I learned a lot from your videos.
You are like Bob Ross, but in 3D version

I used your method, and it was easy to do and it looked great. Thank you.
I am going to be trying your technique soon. I actually already went and tried the toilet paper with scenic glue to do some filling. That was really easy to work with!
Simply wonderful!!! Thank you from Italy!
Looks great
I think the white dry brush at the end is brilliant, to me it's as if the rocks have some quartz in them

Very nice tutorial and work. Do you also have a tutorial on how to make a tunnel? I am just getting started.

New sub here. That looked fantastic!
very helpful - nice and clear in good english
Looks incredible. Fantastic work.
Thank you! I was hopeless before finding your tutorials! :-D
Woo...so realistic.
Amazing method
Otroligt häftig effekt på slutet av det vita med "torr pensel"...
Kommer absolut att prova detta!
Congratulations! I learnt much with tutorial.
They almost look real.very nice job

Marvelous! Thanks for sharing.
Just fantastic. I do an outdoor holiday train display. Do you think these mountains would stand up to rain.
Thank you! No.. They will not..
buenísima técnica, se ve tan fácil cuando lo hace una persona que sabe
Thanks so much for this video. Great instructions and inspiration.
Very impressive work. Thank you.
Great method and great results. Thanks for sharing
Great tips there, many thanks my friend.
Thanks for all the information, as it makes it easier to do my scenery!

Tack för en bra video.
Brukar måla botten och trädelar matt svart med spray i tunneln.
Sätter bara liner ca 10-15cm in från varje öppning, lite fusk 😀
Imponerande! Gjorde det svåra lättbegripligt.
