I have watched a few of your videos. Just subsribed. This is genius. Looks great and cheap as hell to make. I will be doing this in the future on my layout. I just started laying track. So I have a while to go.
Those look really good and it looks like they would be impossible to screw up. Definitely saved this one.I'll be using it on my layout. One more point- I think maybe one more coffee should do it 🤭
I remember you using this method way back when...I tried it and was not able to get it to look like yours...this update showed more detail and I am going to have to try it again...thanks for the tip Joe..
I have found out a really handy tool for modeling. I bought a rechargeable toothbrush with 2 heads, I pulled all the bristles out of the heads and took 2 side tape and sandpaper and cut one like the head and the other like a triangle, you now have an Orbital sander. Sure saves on fingers and finger nails.
I have not been able to find a green filter at Ace, Lowes, Menards, or HD. Who sells these? I’ve been able to closely approximate this using white fiber foam; the stuff in small pillows & stuffed animals. First paint it green, let it dry. Hit it with hairspray then sprinkle with flock, then hairspray again. To make a “climbing” vine, a THIN strip of glue on the building (or whatever) & sprinkle with flock. Shake off the excess & repeat till you’re satisfied.
@@tracksidesceneryI have a white filter on hand and was planning on trying a brown and tan color on it with green foam to mimic some of the shrubs that grow around here.
What brand of filter do you use in trade many different products I found out fiberglass doesn't work well I decided to go with the cotton heater filters
Good to see you back in your element...if you have any khaki spray paint whip me up about a 3 foot square...I'll tousle and shape it after I glue it on my head...
Looks like it’s just green scenery base foam. You can buy it in the ground up form from craft stores and hobby shops. Or, you can just cut up chunks of floral foam (aka oasis) and put them in a blender until they’re about the size you want, then sift them into different sizes. It winds up being cheaper that way. Be sure to look for different colors of foam for highlighting and/or blossoms.
Brilliant. Joey, you are a godsend for the budget-minded modeler!

That's so cheap and easy, but yet so effective and it looks good !
Awesome tutorial! I appreciated the bits of humor as well. I’m definitely going to be using this technique on my 1:32 scale slot car track!

Lately, I have been using blue filters. Either way, they get painted.

Good to see You well. greetings from Ulm. Germany to Strasburg, Virginia
My favorite golf course is in New Ulm, Texas. (Settled by immigrants from Ulm, Germany.)
Great job Joey. Following you for quite awhile.
Great technique that looks quite convincing once done - Will give this a try!
Another great video Joey!
Works good, looks good.

Great tutorial!
Brilliant
Why did you paint the green material black? aren't vines green? thanks
Tussle, a highly technical term!
Was thinking tease...
thank you
I thought of using polyester fiber for pillows, I don't know if it would be good. :/
It might work, or you may be on to a material for an entirely different effect! How did it turn out?
I wish you spent more time explaining what the base materials were, and where you can find them

Be careful pulling this stuff apart, I got a bunch of fiberglass splinters doing it barehanded!
