Hi, I've been doing railroad modeling for the past 30 years and got my first train kit back in 1975. I've seen A LOT of videos on the net on how to wire, paint, weather and so. This is the first time I see weathering concrete at it's best. Simple and very educational in the same time. I've took a lot of notes during the video and will certainly try your technics. I enjoyed very much what you taught me and thank you for all the tips too.
Thanks so much for your kind words. It’s comments like this that make me want to produce even more how to videos! I actually have another technique coming out soon.
I tried your technic last weekend. Think I've started with a paint a bit darker than cocoon. I ended up with a too dark concrete but I was able to tone back to something lighter and that I really enjoy as final result. All steps you're doing are very important and I can't believe how easy it can be to get that kind of result. Now I will try to cover a wider space that will help make concrete a lot more realistic. Keep on your good work.
Nicely done, I'm always looking to find tips and ideas because I want to do 1/24 scale automotive dioramas. Your demo piece would do well for a 1/32 scale car display, I'll have to increase the spacing of the concrete plates for 1/24 scale, I have plenty of modeling flock and tiny leaves to complete the look.
Not sure if you guys cares but if you are bored like me atm you can stream all the latest series on Instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my gf during the lockdown xD
Amazing Work simple n straight forward I'm an N scale modeler I was wondering on N scale would I cut the joints closer in proximity for a smaller squares?
Hi again. I hear no where in video the size of the concrete slab blocks. I suppose you didn't mention it because there are many sizes. Yours look like 1 inch and a quarter. Witch would be like nine footers. Again, congratulations. It's a video that explains very well what needs to be done for a truly realistic result.

Did you skip over applying the chalk color?

Thanks for your comment Max!
So you painted it black, the. You come back and it’s already painted over in grey..would have liked to see that
I used the same technique for the grey and tan paint. Simple sponge painting. I may do a part 3 to this series.
@@NewHavenRails still would have liked to have saw it
Enjoyed this how to Ron...gonna try it on “Silly Winks” foam...thanks for sharing this technique
Great idea! I am glad you enjoyed the video!

@Preston David Definitely, I've been using instaflixxer for months myself :D
Definitely going to try it Ron !
Appreciate your comment Doug!
Cool. Im working on something for some TMNT figures right now. And this video was helpful
Cool. Thanks for sharing, Ron.
Thanks for watching!
Wow.....Turned out really nice!!!
Thank you! 😊
I build 1/35 scale models but the principle is the same I really enjoyed the video & have subscribed too
That is awesome!!! Thanks for the tutorial! Very well done 👍
Glad you liked it!
I will try it! Greetings from Germany :)
Awesome Demonstration!!
Thank you!
Good idea
Amazing Work simple n straight forward I'm an N scale modeler I was wondering on N scale would I cut the joints closer in proximity for a smaller squares?
Yes, for N scale you will have to adjust the size. Use a scale ruler to help you on this.
So , You applied the Black Gesso to the pink foam block , WHY is it now WHITE color? before adding the gray with the sponge ?
very confusing ???

Will this technique work for plastic model kits ?
Yes it will work on plastic. Start with a good grey primer and work from there.
