fantastic videos mate, I too make tutorial videos and know just how much time and effort goes into making one video! So thank you for the time and effort you put into producing these tutorials. Looking forward to your next video. Keep up the great work. Cheers Luke
+Luke Towan Thank you Luke! Yes, each video takes 10-15 hours just to make. I also want to push the boundries a bit for every production in terms of both content and technical level.
You two guys provide us with great entertainment. I love modeling, I don't have too much time but I love watching your videos. Thank you very much for your efforts
Hear, hear! Definitely two modellers who apply a clear, concise and entertaining approach to disseminate first class modelling skills. Please keep up the great work ... I will be watching! :-)

The algorithm sent me here, but damn, this man is a real artist. Props, you're an excellent craftsman. And with such cheap methods, it surpasses a lot of art I've seen in both practicality and beauty.
.yes.....also along the shore definitely needs some white foam areas as waves crash against the beach.....really cool effects here...just needs some details to make it over the top.
The fact that this is 4 colors of paint, some clear coat, glue and toilet paper means it is extremely cost effective too! I've always been afraid of tackling water in projects.
I didn’t know how much I needed to see someone make waves while vibing out to 2000s pop rnb instrumentals. I am thoroughly pleased with my memorial day now.
This is how a tutorial is done. Instead of just watching someone build a project in timelapse and crappy music, this guy explains things in a clear way.
It’s good to watch someone’s technique, especially when they know their stuff and explain the how and why as they do it. I generally don’t like music with my DIY videos-it’s almost always distracting and some people just don’t know how to be subtle about it, while others lack a sense of appropriate music. The music here is just plain weird-oddly enough, I didn’t find it off putting. It seemed appropriate!
Toilet paper? To make water??? was my first thought. I was skeptical. But I have to admit, the end result is really impressive and this is definitely a water technique to remember. Two thumbs up.
I don't know why this was recommended to me, I don't make models, but the title was so intriguing I had to see what this was all about and I have to say I'm very impressed. Great presentation too, nice humour :) Have to check out more. Liked and subscribed.
I came to YT to find a way to make water for my dollhouse garden fountain without using UV resin and this is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for the tutorial. 🥰
Excellent artistic work here: you’ve really put a lot of thought and detail in the modeling process. Maybe one suggestion would be to gently apply white acrylic paint with a piece of makeup sponge to create sea foam where particularly rough water movement would be, such as behind a boat rudder or near a beach?
Glad to hear I wasn't the only one with delusions of a certain painter whispering in my ear during this. Although please don't get me wrong, not only do you have the talents to do your hobby, but you can comfortably discuss/teach while doing so. Kudos! Back elementary school I thought diaramas were silly, for people who don't express well verbally. But you have changed my mind completely. The water looked wet! Damn, now I am thirsty!

Am I the only one who often puts the videos I'm actually interested in into the 'watch later' list but always click on these random recommended videos right away?
I wargame and my water terrain has been very poor. I was just about to buy the expensive resin stuff when I came across this video - what a great tutorial! I will definitely be trying this with the next batch of terrain - thank you!
Stop using the paper before you use it ! It is a waste and can not make some of the best stuff. Do not tell others the tip. I sell stuff I make and have plenty of paper now.
For anyone else using this technique, it might be an idea to basecoat your wood underneath with pva before this procedure to prevent the wood absorbing too much moisture, which could cause the wood to bend out of shape.
This is a great idea, the paper is so "moldable" and thin it mimics those small crisscrossing waves very well. I really like learning new ways to create realistic water. Thanks for sharing!
tryna figure out what in my viewing history made the algorithm say 'hey, youll like watching this swedish guy make model water out of toilet paper whilst porn music plays in the background'...
@kael its more than that, it knew i would watch it when i didnt even know i would watch it.... that means.... the singularity is here! skynet has gone online!!! lol
I tried this method, as shown in the video, and everyone has said the results look great. It has inspired me to add more waterfront scenes to my layout and to finally finish some boat/ship models I was working on. Thanks for this video.
Something for you to try... lightly paint over the tops of the "white caps" on the waves with a stiff brush and using your white paint. When dry, add another gloss coat. Repeat as needed until you get a splashy wave result. You can do this to enhance what you already have. I have done this on several layouts, you will love the result. Make another video and let us see how it works for you. I use the high gloss Modge Podge for my clear coat instead of white glue.
This was such a random rec but here I am. I doubted the paint job so badly until the final result... and I am so so so impressed by this, I CANNOT believe you did this with toilet paper. Amazing work! What an artist.
Thank you! Yeah, this method is really ”forgiving” and really suitable for modellers on any level from absolute beginners. I’ve since this video was published seen hundreds of proofs from all over the world. I wish you a Merry Christmas!
Idk why this was recommended to me, but I’m honestly not mad about it. This guys voice & video style is very calming! & the effort he puts into these mini sceneries is admirable!
That was amazing! I've read various articles over the years about creating realistic water scenes and have never seen anything like this before. The results here speak for themselves. Very well done!
I was expecting some stupid "trick" where the guy was gonna drink a glass of water (made from toilet paper and glue) at the end. Instead, I found a cool clip where a guy shared his experiences making something awesome
Thanks to that guy I found out a way to make the water on my model ! At the end the water looked so damn realistic ! I got an A+ ,(Excellent, 6 , our grading system), on my project and I couldn't be happier ! No one even believed the water is made of toilet paper and glue ! Greetings from Bulgaria , man ! Keep up the good work !
Same here - I love the photorealism of the water here, but the closest I personally get to doing art is photography, which doesn’t require nearly as much patience as painting or sculpting do😅
@@B33nj4m1n I think photography is harder than drawing. Life is so fast that if you don't shoot at the right time, you've missed it. And while something similar might come along, you'll never get the exact shot you were aiming for. When I draw though, I can always erase, or start over and achieve exactly what I wanted.
Thank you. I have been struggling with painting water with texture for years. I am a painter so I usually use a canvas. I love texture and water in my paintings so this was one of those "AHA" moments. Finally a solution. Stay safe and again Thank you.
Well, I finally broke down and bought a roll of toilet paper and tried the toilet paper water... As I applied the watered down glue mixture, I realized why you had to add 3-4 layers of TP to the "harbour"... After applying about three layers, The toilet paper started making its own waves with the pushing of the paint brush (like the one you're using) so I decided that the tiny waves would be of perfect size as my layout is N scale. Although this procedure requires 72 -76 hours of drying time (depending on the humidity in the air) I think it is well worth the effort. One thing people should know if they do decide to do their water this way - Buy yourself some cheap white glue - it can get real expensive using good quality/brand name stuff! I would also wait until the toilet paper has fully dried before painting and adding the clear coat. Makes it easier to use the brush and not clog it up unintentionally as most soggy plasters do.
I used this technique for my 1/700 scale imperial Japanese navy ocean diorama. It was my first time making fake water, it worked extremely well. It was really easy for me as a amateur at making models. I now have a technique that actually works and is super simple mostly. Thanks for making this video it really helped, can’t wait to make more dioramas using this!
Got a river scene on my layout that I've been wondering on what's the best way to do the water. Well I think I've just found it. What a great idea. I never in a million years would have come up with something like that. Awesome 👍!
I enjoy exploring clever, impressive (and inexpensive😉) ways to imitate objects - just like these water waves you made. I used technique from this video a few times - many thanks!
Thanks! What fun to watch! Toss your perfectionism when you try this, and stand back to observe, because real art involves slopping for good effect. And, it makes it so enjoyable to see the results in the end!
The title made me think of huge swells devouring ocean liners. But, more down to earth harbour waves will do. Particularly the way you perform them;-) Thanx for posting this tutorial.

This looks really great, the only thing I might add would be a very minor dry-brush of white on the top of the waves to add some 'foaming' effect :)
Yeah, it needs white caps, but other than that it looks amazing!
I was waiting for that too.. just a dash of white on top of the gloss, following by just one layer of gloss around the white, leaving the heads matte.
.yes.....also along the shore definitely needs some white foam areas as waves crash against the beach.....really cool effects here...just needs some details to make it over the top.
It is inspiring, i don't even do model building, i did when i was a kid but all kinds of dioramas are in the list of "i'd like to do that..."
Especially on features like the boat wake.
No idea why this was recommended but I’m not mad, this was weirdly interesting. Fair play TH-cam, you win this time.

I have no interest in model railways, but this video came into my feed. It’s fantastic how realistic that water looked. Now I want to build a model of my own! Thank you, Mark. Very impressed
Absolutely 💯 Amazing 🥰
Amazing , especially after those gloss finishes done. The glossiness really make it look realistic
