  • Will your modeling stand up to being viewed at night…? In this tutorial I’ll take you through all the steps you can add to your modeling to make it look absolutely amazing whether the lights are on or OFF!
    Adding lighting effects is just another way you can take your model building to the next level and if there is an amazing sunset nearby you will be amazed at how good your dioramas can look! There are some tricks to getting the Woodland Scenics Light Hub to work with a battery pack so if that’s something you’d be interested in be sure to visit:
    www.bouldercre...
    Don't forget to check out my Instagram...😃 I post photos nearly every day showcasing some of the fantastic work done by people in the modeling community!
    / bouldercreekrailroad
    If you have a diorama to share be sure to private message me with some photo's of your completed diorama 😉
    Adding lights is actually a very easy process, especially when using the Woodland Scenics Just Plug system to interconnect all the lighting.
    there you’ll find a bunch of extra articles and blogs about all sorts of modeling topics.
    Also if you’d like to help the channel grow be sure to visit my patreon page where I post videos 24 hours before they become public and I also have some rewards.

She has to apply a prescribed topical medication now, whenever any kind of glue touches her skin. She had to abandon her beloved hobbies.

      Thanksmate, to be honest they don't take all that long.If I had to put a time frame I'd probably say about 12 hours but the reason I take so long to make these videos is because the process of filming easily triples the build time and then there is all the brain storming on what angle I'll need the camera at to get the best shot. Sometimes I'll build the model twice getting multiple shots from various angles that all get spliced together in the final video... not to mention I have to juggle all this with my regular day job 😉 too much info.... lol
