- Опубликовано: 19 янв 2022
- This is a comprehensive video tutorial and commentary demonstrating how to model a stunning river "Signature Scene" (in HO Scale), with a classical faux painting method. A demonstration of wet-on-wet painting is also included. Faux painting is a lost art which any ordinary person, or beginner, can achieve if they put their mind to it. This video demonstrates the whole process from start to finish.

Just found your channel today and I've been binge watching a bit. I have always admired Troelskirk's layout and the similar way he approaches water. But the more RUclips that got into my head I was leaning towards resin for my harbour. You've just dragged me back from the precipice! Thank you. Cheers
Use whatever you want but I'll just come out and say it because I don't care what the resin junkies' say.
Pouring resin is for the novice looking for a quick fix. There are only a few exceptional modeler's who can pull it off with success. Luke Towan is one of them. Even then, the stuff creeps and wicks up into everything like shoreline details, piles, etc. and ruins the modelers day. Then they try and hide the glossy mess through cognitive dissonance, insisting that it is the best and only way to do things. It only looks good to the user because they need to justify the cost of the failed experiment. Learning to paint and gloss over with acrylic resin looks the scale part to me and stays dust free as well.
I feel the same way about photo-shopped (paper models) as well, but I digress . . . anyway.
As you can see, I hate the stuff.
Cheers. 😁
@@boomerdiorama Probably saved me a good deal of money too! Cheers
@@daviemaclean61 Resin is expensive for sure. Paint is cheap and you can always cover it up and change color if you don't like it - then gloss coat it. If you want to refresh down the road just brush a fresh coat of gloss medium over it. Easy to fix and revise as well. Cheers.
Boomer, have commented before that I have been model railroading for 70 years and built 9 complete layouts. Following you for the past year or so has raised my abilities and ENJOYMENT of the hobby to a level I would not have imagined. Am mesmerized by each new segment and afterward want to rush into the train room and try something new. Another big Thank You for bringing new pleasure to an old timer. Don't stop and don't change. You are on exactly the right track!
Thank you. You wrote, "want to rush into the train room and try something new." That is the intention! ;-) Cheers and happy model railroading ~ Boomer.
Boomer, you are so right about resin creep when doing a water scene. Another thing you have to do when pouring resin is, you have to make sure your surface is perfectly level. I have first hand experience with resin. I found myself going around areas with dull coat and a paint brush. never again. I don't dislike resin, it just has its place and a river scene like this isn't a good candidate for it. I really enjoy your videos, we have alot in common as far as the way we think, and even though I've been a hobbiest building models and dioramas for over fifty years I still enjoy and learn from others like yourself. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for taking the time to share. You are correct - this river scene is no candidate for pouring resin. I like the artist approach to most everything anyway because I love to paint. But each to his or her own at the end of the day. I get it. Cheers ~ Boomer.😁
Boomer, I've been model railroading for about 67 years starting off with Hornby Double O in England, then switching to HO when we came to Canada. Since then, I've dabbled in N scale, back to HO and HOn3 and now On30. I still have the desire to have a little HO especially HOn3 so I can put to use a largish collection of Blackstone. I love narrow gauge particularly because I have a very narrow mind. I'm slowly, very slowly, building my On30 railroad, working on structures with LED lighting on one structure, then adding more hand laid track and creating scenery. This is what I really enjoy doing. Just recently I started to watch your excellent videos, and got the desire to head down to my train room and shut the door before my 15 pound imitation of a Tiger beats me to it. I have that same problem as some of you.
The way you have done superb water effects gives me ideas but I don't have a water scene on my layout. Darn you, now I have to add some kind of river or lake scene. Seriously though, after watching this video, your instructional ability absolutely gives me the confidence now to be able to create a water scene without losing my mind. That happens quite often.
Thank you so much for all your help, and I'm sure Opus will be happy to get yet another big order from me. I use a lot of Rembrandt pastels from them.
Cheers
David
Thanks for sharing David. I am glad to hear you are inspired. It's a great hobby!
It's the joy of creating them got most people hooked.
Cheers.
I'm catching some past episodes, this was alot like painting my dinningroom wall with faux.
Very relaxing.
Sort of like sitting on my back deck, watching the wind off the pond with the trees rustling, then the power poles, with the road action and water tower looming in the sky.
Water can crash and water can flow.......be water my friend.
Painting water is very much the same thing as "Faux" Then several gloss coats over top and it's good to go for me.😁
So glad you have shared so many techniques with the modeling community. I just started using this technique for a friends bay scene and all I can say is WOW! GAC is so easy to use and forgiving. Thank you!
Wonderful!
Progressiveness doesn't equal forgetting older methods, just because they are older doesn't mean they are necessarily bad all the time. And this video shows it so well! :D
As long as water doesn't NEED TO be clear and you have to see to the ground (carribean water or a clear mountain spring, etc.), I think this method here is much better than pouring Resin, actually. Not only do you not have to risk mistakes by leaks, you can also spare yourself time and money. And it seems more fun to do as well (which might be different for others, I like all the painting and similar processes VERY much, so I prefer this method tbh).
I learned so much from this and it really makes me excited to try this myself. Our rivers are also quite murky in my little german town, so I might just try to replicate some of those pretty river corners we have here and there. Luckily I still got some money to spare, so I'll probably throw these Golden materials into my shopping basket later today.
Thank you VERY much for making these videos and going so indepth with everything, it's always fun to learn more things. :)
Plus you can resurface it any time you want with virtually no cost. I just resurfaced the water front since I finished the slip and it looks even better. ;-)
@@boomerdiorama That sounds great~. I'm liking this method more and more. It's probably perfect for my annoying perfectionist mind that refuses to be happy with the first outcome. 😂
It's absolutely mind blowing how realistic it is! Initially, I keep thinking the water is going to spill over the edge and mess his floor up...lol. The scene is extremely peaceful and serene, and the river is a showstopper for that end of the diorama! Awesome. Cheers👍
Thank you. Should look good with the Barge Slip in place. Cheers.
I am really happy RUclips recommended your channel.
Me too! Cheers!
I will never consider woodland scenics water after seeing this mastery
I think most of the products are one in the same at the end of the day anyway. Just like varathane is similar to acrylic glaze.
@@boomerdiorama I never noticed resin creep until you brought it up a while back, now whenever I see resin water I can't help but see it and it drives me crazy.
@@ianisaacs2340 I know the feeling.
Your instructions/advice is so valuable. I've enjoyed, and learned so much from you. Your work is beautiful. Thank you so very much.
Thank you. Cheers.
Oolichan,I can see the Oolichan your craftsmanship is that good. Thanks for sharing and guiding us on how to be better.
Thank you very much!
I knew this was gonna be fantastic... and of course, it was!
Thank you! Cheers.
As soon as I saw the first glimpse of your water I thought He sponge painted it. Sure nuff, that's what you did and it looks good. I like the way you blended the colors on the shoreline too. I do Faux marble table tops with acrylics and that's exactly how I get that marble effect, flood it with water. I top that off with sprayed on Conversion Varnish but I know that isn't going to work in you home. LOL Boomer, I'm impressed.
Thank you Robert! Cheers!
Just finished using the techniques in your video to create a "practice harbor". I cannot believe how easy it was, how quickly things came together, and how good it looks. Took about 30 minutes a day over 4 days to create a 1 ft by 3 ft area that looks great. No smell, no fuss, and thanks again!
Fantastic! Thanks for sharing as well! Cheers ~ Boomer.
Stunning. Thank you for this highly anticipated tutorial. You continue to selflessly share your gifts. I watched every commercial and hope others will consider the same. Beyond using only the best materials, you are clearly investing significant time in providing these tutorials and it is truly appreciated. Bravo.
Thank you for watching the commercials. Cheers.
@@boomerdiorama I think you’ve got a lot of faithful viewers. Your viewership is steadily growing. The trouble is it’s just so easy to click skip. I think a gentle reminder embedded into the next few videos might help. Informing your viewers that you might have to move your content to a membership service otherwise may push more to do the right thing.
Came up a treat, nicely executed. 👍👍👍
Cheers! ~ Boomer
MUSEUM QUALITY... Like the Provincial Museum in Victoria when I was a kid. Come to think of it... I recall an amazing logging museum up in Nanaimo. I know I can scale down about 80% of your methods to N scale. I am binging a little every evening after work. Great instruction. Thank You.
Thanks for sharing! Glad to hear you are into it!
Hello Boomers. It is absolutely fantastic what you have conjured up there. I doff my hat. Really good. Greetings Detlef
Many thanks!
Love it, the weekend came early for once...so happy, if only work would finish early too 🥳👍👍👍🍻
Cheers!
all you need now is Matty, GP and Hammy in the speed boat floating down the river or Relic and Nick&Jesse racing to get one of those stray logs on the shore
That is looking great. You do know your stuff.
Thanks 👍
Now I want to go watch Strange Brew listening to that Canadian accent!
. . . what's that eh? ;-)
Stunning, probably the best representation of inland (as opposed to out to sea) water I've ever seen.
It's a great subject matter to model a water front marine terminal for sure. Cheers.
You are a Master Craftsman, I was planning my Bayou / harbour scene with pouring resin etc, but after watching this method I certainly will rethink my processes. Thank you again for a very professional presentation.
As always you take it to a new level.
Gary.
Thank you!
This is just what I was hoping for. Fairly low tech, no funky fumes, made with available materials and tools., and it looks great. Thanks and Cheers!
Glad you like it! It is exactly what you described! Furthermore, you can take your time with each layer, or add as many layers as you want for infinite looks or effects.. Cheers ~ Boomer.
This is streets ahead of Resin pour. A fantastic result and so realistic. (To my UK eyeballs anyway). well done kiddo. All the best from the Brits.
Thank you very much from across the pond where my family tree originated (Wales/Norway)!
Absolutely stunning work. I have been taking notes and can't wait to give your methods a try.
Thank you for providing your knowledge and experience to all of us.
Thanks so much 😊
you have motivated me to try painting some water great job thanks!
Go for it!
Wow just wow 🤩
That is what I said in the morning when I woke up to see it as well! ;-)
Thanks again for another learning opportunity, looking forward to using these techniques in my wargaming minis and scenes
Have fun!
again, just beautiful work of art
Thank you very much!
Again a piece of art!
Thank you. A Blue Heron on the point should finish it off nicely. ;-)
That will look great! But is Dusty not a threat? She might think hmmm nice bird, lunch. 🙂
So great to see a Master at work doing a masterpiece.
Wow, thanks!
I just love how you try to portray yourself as not being a confident, fearless, mythical, master painter! Ha! We all see right through that!!
I feel uncertain at times. I really do. But then it usually turns out. ;-)
I always learn things after I do them. I have some water on my layout a small bulkhead area where there is two barges and a tug an a small fishing vessel. The other area is a swamp where a stream empties into. So I did it with resin . You made me laugh when you said you get up in the morning and your water is on floor. Half of my swamp is a hard clear puddle on the floor, thank God it's a painted floor not rugs. The " harbor" had a small leak and I caught that in time.
Your method is a lot cleaner. However , I will use your method to get ripples and bow waves so all is not lost. I'm always fascinated with watching true artists work so you have given me that. As I've said before , thank you so very much!
Cheers Bob. Glad to hear there is a fix for you.
I’ve really enjoyed following along on this series. I wish I had half your skill.
Thank you. Skill is commensurate with practice. The more we practice the craft, the more confident we become, and it snowballs from there. ;-)
Looks insanely good. Honestly the best water modelling I've ever seen. Also very much appreciate how you always explain your methods.
Ive missed a lot of your episodes so I owe myself a good binge watch.
Thanks, Boomer!
Sounds good! Cheers and thanks for watching!
The faux technique is very effective, looks stunning. The tonal variations from different angles you look at it gives depth and shine that's very realistic looking. Great points on resin pours, most layouts I look at, not all, but some, have that 'creep' you talk about, as it sits unnaturally up a river bank, up a tree trunk, or debris placed in it. I am sure the faux technique will be the way I try to create water effects in future. Resin still has its place, seen it used very effectively. All the best Boomer, take care. Brian @The Angels
Thank you for sharing. Cheers.
Fantastic modeling and very instructive.
Many thanks!
You and Dusty work well together! My furballs are a little more destructive on the train table. I wish I could nominate you for something because you are not only a master artist, but a great teacher.
Thank you. Subscribing is a good nomination. ;-)
I am with you on not pour rivers and lakes. like you I have found more epoxy on the floor than in the frame. Never again after watching your river painting.
Thank you for making it sound easy.
You learn way more when you simply paint a surface Dark Green and then paint on several layers of gloss gel opposed to just filling in a cavity and crossing the fingers. ;-)
love this one too..its great to go back and see your progress..
Thank you! Cheers!
Amazing what can be done with a small number of supplies and some knowledge and skills. That is an amazing looking muddy river. Thanks for sharing a great technique. Cheers - Larry.
Thank you Larry! Cheers!
Sir, it has to be said, the quality of your workmanship is simply stunning. It’s a pleasure to watch you work, and even better that you choose to share it. Your attention to detail is inspiring, and it's fantastic to see this project taking shape. Keep up the great work! 👍
Thank you for the compliment Nick. I must remind myself that I also experience the hobby in the same way as any other modeler comparatively speaking. Therefore, I appreciate your encouragement as well. I hope the younger modelers are inspired also because without them the hobby dies - and what great hobby it is. Cheers.
@@boomerdiorama At 52 I no longer class as younger, but I’m certainly inspired! There is an ever increasing pile of raw materials appearing, I just need to “grab the bull by the horns” and make a start. Your channel is real therapy in this crazy world….
@@nicktaylor3063 Lol . . . When I talked to my 87 year old Dad the other day I reminded him I was sixty years old. He said, "Ahhh . . . the youth of old age . . . lol.
@@boomerdiorama I just wish the body kept up with the mind! 😉
@@nicktaylor3063 I'm O.K. with the illusion of youth in my mind for now if i stay away from my own reflection . . . lol. ;-)
Boomer, the water scene is just absolutely incredible! It looks so real that you could dip your hands in the water and need to dry them off.
Thanks for always including instruction and products!
And, Dusty is such a mellow girl, my cat would be adding the texture for me.
Just a fantastic beautiful creation!
CHEERS
Thank you very much! Cheers! ~ Boomer.
Amazing mate. So inspirational thank you.
My pleasure!
That looks like the sun sparkles off the ripples
It does! ;-)
An artist, philosopher, coach model railroader! Thank you!
😁Thank you!
I have been waiting for this episode for awhile. I used the Woodland Scenics water myself and it was a real mess for me. Another lesson in the books. Thanks for sharing. Dave
Thanks Dave. Nice to hear from you. Cheers ;-)
Boomer, In my Sign bus. I use MDO duraply. No fibers to deal with. Just one coat of variation does it. It has a smooth paper surface, and availability in all thicknesses. Great stuff. No more sanding between coats.
P.j. signs, Santa Barbara.
Sounds awesome! Thanks for sharing!👍
Another incredibly helpful offering.
I've not seen these products before and will definitely be trying them out.
I've only very recently discovered your channel and am so thankful to have the resource as I am just beginning my own ho layout.
Light, windblown surface chop is one of the more difficult replications for me and I havnt had satisfactory results with epoxies so far.
I must add that in this scene you have more closely replicated a true class A limestone rip rap for the embankment stabilization than any other example I have witnessed anywhere.
Thank you again for sharing your many years of experience, it is greatly appreciated.
Cheers.
Try Golden "GAC 500" for water. Pour it thin as built up layers. It leaves tool marks well like chop etc. It goes on chalky white and remains cloudy for a few days, but clears crystal clear after a week, It's water-based, safe, and easily fixable as well. It is 100% Acrylic and you can tint it with almost any acrylic hobby paint as well.
Thanks for the amazing detail content
I'm a decorator by trade so detail is number 1 on my layout trains just happen to be there . Your channel is provides great education for me thanks
Very cool! Thanks for sharing.
This one was worth the wait !! I have never seen results or techniques like you have presented here. Well done sir and thanks for sharing your knowledge and your progress with those of us in this hobby. Again , BRAVO !!!
Thank you. Cheers.
Excellent tutorial. The water looks terrific.
Thanks so much 😊
I found your channel as mentioned by McKerrow Siding. I, too have a dislike for the resin meniscus effect, and now I can try a way that avoids the issue.
Excellent water tutorial and plenty of other awesome techniques and products I’ve found here in just a few days!
I don’t do railroad (yet), but dollhouses and random scale dioramas. Your experience and ability to share skills is much appreciated. Thank you!
Sounds awesome! My wife has an awesome Doll House collection as well. Cheers! 😁
This is just as I imagined my river scene would look like but had no hope of achieving anything close to these remarkable effects. I cannot adequately convey just how helpful this, and all your other videos have been in informing me of the possibilities in diorama / layout building and finishing. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and skills with us.
Thank you for taking the time to share those thoughts. I am glad to hear when these videos inspire others to build and enjoy the rich rewards this dear hobby provides. Cheers ~ Boomer.
This is about the best river bank/area and shoreline detailing I have ever seen. This makes me need to make a small river shoreline diarama with some trees and a fly fisherman. Thank you so much for sharing all of your wonderful works.
Thank you! The fly fisherman on the bank of the river sounds awesome. Cheers.
Posted the video to the HO RR FB page that I go to a lot for all to see. ... I'll watch it in the morning with coffee, while awaiting the wintry precip expected here in South Carolina.
Sounds great. Thank you. Cheers.
Like any body of water it's colour is directly affected by sunlight shade etc etc and or what is the state of the current flowing through it. I guess one major consideration would be what type of lighting on your model you are going to have (if any) ? Sometimes I find if your really unsure about a project on your layout it is best to go and find something that you are sure about and start on that, no point forcing yourself. Usually like most situations in life you do gain confidence through experience and hopefully learn from your mistakes and a little bit of thought and planning goes a long way. Fantastic work as always. Thanks so much for sharing this build.
Lighting and angle changes all the time when you walk around the layout. No way to ensure the optimal scene. I like to share the raw real experience that most won't share. Uncertainty resides in everyone's experience regardless of who they are at the end of the day. I say dive in and learn instead of waiting to do nothing. ;-)
Nice video thanks for the tips. You do a great job showing and telling what you do. Thanks for sharing David @ low country railroad
Thank you! Cheers.
Boomer, very cool how you show your process of making the faux painted river. Already got a lot of your vids on my favorites list, this one may very well be my absolute favorite. And umm, totally convinced that resin isn’t my method for doing a water surface. Golden products are absolutely amazing.
I love the Golden products. Namely because they are safe, compatible and reliable.
That looks damn nice !!! Some of THE best water feature representation I've seen 👍👍👍
Thank you. I really like the way it turned out.
@@boomerdiorama Can't wait till the barge slip is in place !! Any plans on modeling an actual car barge ??
@@stevenlitkey9354 I have given it some thought. Probably this summer if all goes well.
Finally got around to watching this because I’m going to do a little swamp or marsh south of Oak Hill and don’t want to use resin again. Thanks for the detailed explanation. Stay safe!
Make sure you go dark olive or something close to that. The best way to determine the color of water in 2D is to look at it in the shade. Cheers Thom. ~ Boomer.
Boomer you are an inspiration to me and many others who enjoy the hobby.I learn something new each time I watch your program.
Thank You so much
Awesome, thank you!
Boomer, while this is probably one of the best segments, my favourite one is the old growth cedar along the shore line with the roots in the water. Thank you for sharing this series and all your videos!
Glad you enjoyed it!
WOW! Incredible work.
Thank you very much!
New to your u-tube, thank you for making it sounds like anybody can paint a river.
Thank you.👍
You are very welcome!
Absolutely amazing. So so much inspiration for us all. Thank you
Cheers.
Great, great, great video. So inspiring. Makes me want to start painting again. Can't wait for the next episode.
Thank you! Cheers!
Fantastic Boomer, loved this one! Never thought about using the sponge for the final texture. I'll be adding that to the repertoire when it comes time to get after the three lakes I have yet to do. Take care. -grant
I think you have water down pat there Grant. ;-) Cheers.
Boomer,
When I saw your river scene for the first time in another one of your videos, I fell in love with your water ripples! I thought you had used a sheet of frosted/stippled glass that's commonly used in interior designs. After watching this installment, I'm now excited to try the faux painting method. I've always wanted to find a resource that has built dioramas for museums and such because I find them to be so realistic a representation. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, techniques, tools, and materials.
If you are O.K. with the "painterly" look with stippled gloss acrylic on top - layer - after - layer then this is a good method, especially if you want a clean fascia edge as well. Some like to pour epoxy resin, but I am for the former look personally because I can also control it from unnecessary creep, ugly leakage, and unsightly drip, melt, etc.
Furthermore, acrylic is simple to wipe clean and resurface as well down the road. It also resists scratches and dust far better than epoxy does. Most notably, acrylic is generally non-toxic as well. Cheers.
Exactly what I need, thanks for sharing your great technique.
Glad it was helpful!
Wow!!! I have two water scenes on my layout and u just eased all my worries..Great Job!!!! Contrary to who ever!!! Great Job..
Glad I could help! Just take your time with this method (each layer) and it will turn out great. ;-)
Excellent tutorial. Your river scene is very inspiring as to what you can achieve. Thanks for posting.-Tom
Many thanks Thomas! It's nice to start getting a little color on the layout after all this planning, building and work! Cheers ~ Boomer.
Once again, you nailed it! I can not think on anything that would improve that scene or water. Keep on Model'n.... and videoing!
Wow, thanks!
Amazing work!!!
Cheers
Gottfried
Thank you. Cheers!
Hey Boomer! Just found your channel....awesome!! Thanks for doing it. I have learned so much already. I am an old film guy (Set Dec) like you, and I love how you communicate what you are doing. I can hear you talking to some junior art director patiently explaining to them to not worry and please stay out of the paint department. We will call if we have any questions...!!! Haha! Love it.
Lol . . . welcome! Thanks for sharing the experience. Nice to hear from other film people. ;-)
Blown away. Well worth the wait! You sir are a true artist. My pouring days are over. Looking forward to the continuing progress.
Thank you. I was more than pleased with the result! Cheers.
Looks very realistic! Finally a way to make without the giant mess we usually get! Thanks for making these videos! Cheers from Sweden!
Thank you. Cheers.
Thanks so much for a great tutorial
You are welcome!
Thank you. Outstanding video presentation.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That's stunning work.
Thank you very much! It was fairly easy to pull off. You can do it in stages over several weeks if one wants. Couple practice pieces on scrap and things will work out fine.
Really beautiful work on the water. Looks great.
Thank you very much!
Looks great.great work boomer..can't wait to do mine, joe
Have fun Joe! Cheers!
Stunning results and an excellent tutorial. Out of all your tutorials, I enjoy the painting sessions the most - not to undermine the importance of the others. You might be interested to know the ads are also becoming more relevant. Initially they were obviously being selected by the algorithm based on words in the titles. Now I’m seeing ads for big name hobby stores in the states, which I suspect relates to the growing footprint of the channel.
Thank you for sharing that Sean. I appreciate it. You will soon be in for a treat because I have all the primary buildings soon to paint. In other words, I will be going on a panting binge soon! ;-) Cheers ~ Boomer.
Yip it's all been said but I have to add to the list of praise, you are most definitely an inspiring artist of the highest caliber.
Your ability to create a living scene out of essentially nothing is beyond comparison and you do it with modesty and humility, thank you so much for sharing you overwhelming talent with our community.
Kindest regards
tones1957 (New Zealand)
You are very gracious with your compliments. Thank You! Cheers ~ Boomer.😁
Stunning.
Thank you! Cheers!
I like the way it changes colour depending on the angle of the light and tree shadows.
Well said. That is the reality of modeling water. Everything changes when you move around the layout. There is no fixed color in any situation that is dynamic. Cheers.
Thanks for introducing me to another way to do water scenes Boomer! The results on your layout look brilliant. Looking forward to seeing the painted barge slip and warehouses in due course to complete the scene.
You're very welcome!
One of your best yet and the process and outcome is amazing. I have shared this with my FB group HO scale shelf modelers as it represents exactly what we are all trying to achieve
Thank you Paul. It worked out better than I first thought. Seeing it live while you walk around it looks cool as well. Cheers.
@@boomerdiorama I may even knock on you door one day and take a look myself planning on coming over in 2024, my Facebook group is approaching 8000 members so I’m making sure you get plenty of exposures and if you looking for a good podcast have a look at A modelers life I was featured last week in a 2 hour interview and your channel gets a mention

This was mesmerizing, I watched ever minute of it, thanks for the tips!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
A work of Art sir. I have pretty much watched all your episodes, this signature scene brings it all together, the background trees are superb, congratulations on an amazing river makes me want to find my fishing rod and drop a line into it!
I have purchased several different water effects products but never had the nerve to pour, well it looks like they will be side lined/dumped for you amazing technique.
Love your work.
Thank you! It's a fairly safe and systematic way to do water in my experience. Thanks for taking the time to share as well! Cheers ~ Boomer.
Looking great , nice work !!!
Thank you! Cheers.
As wonderful as I expected it to be. Thanks so much for sharing this method, as with so many other things you have shared in such a short time, I can't wait to give it a try myself.
Glad it was helpful!
Looks stupendous!
Thank you!
Really nice! I'm a painter and I do a lot of trompe l'oeil work, so I enjoyed seeing this approach
Thank you very much!
Your work is amazing... mind blowing!!!
Thank you for the gracious compliment. You inspire me! Cheers Boomer.
@@boomerdiorama The rule confirms, the best at their field are always so kind and willing to inspire others, you are one of them. I am watching your videos, one by one, some of them repeated times, and i've learn more than all the videos and magazines i had over the years. Thank you Sir, for sharing your work with all of us. God bless you.
Boomer, I had pretty high expectations for the results you would show us with this water feature. Looks like I underestimated you again! This is just absolutely incredible! Your tutorial on the method is perfect. Anyone can get impressive results, based upon your instructions; i can't wait to try this! Thank you for another master class in scenery!
I am most pleased to hear that others can apply some of these techniques to increase the enjoyment of their model railroad experience. Thank you for sharing Pat. Cheers ~ Boomer.
EXcellent! You captured the essence of the river... I wish I'd tried your process on my river. ( I experienced a nice glossy patch on my floor the next morning too...) I guess that is how ya learn, eh?
I really like how yours turned out, so realistic. Great workmanship Boomer.
Thank you. Two Part Epoxy Resin has a purpose, but it has no place on my model railroad layout or on my floor. ;-)😁
