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! :-)
Top notch videos from both of you.
2 model making geniuses at opposite ends of the Earth 👍🙂
Who is this man and why is he in my recommended
Im not complaining
He just vibin doe
Kali Takumi
I was gonna say that
It's in my recommended because I watch Rocket League video's and in Rocket League, many items like wheels can be equipped with the colour "Titanium White", which is a paint that he uses and said out loud at 5:13.
Because Titanium White items in Rocket League are like the holy grail of all trades, mentioning that he used "Titanium White" painting has made this video go viral:

Like if you also play Watch Rocket League video's!
@@alwaysinagoodshape5327 dude it has to be 100% rocket league like there's no reason I should get this recomended
I probably got here from dnd dice tutorials and paint
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.
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.
Probably one of the best water tutorials I have seen not involving expensive or smelly resins and easy to do!
Еще можно добавлять клей, он очень похож на воду. Иногда имеет запах. Можно сделать эффект водопада
I did NOT expect that. That is hyper realistic
Hi
Hi
Hi
Before the clear coat I was like; "It's not so bad." Then after the clear coat I was like; "WOW!!!"
Yeah! It's stunning!

Same! It looks Exactly like water!
I'm an architecture student and I found this video really helpful for my scale model project! Thank you 🙂
Same here came for my model making session😌
i’m in 5h grade. and i just want to ask. There’s actually a architecture class? When can you take it? sounds AWESOME!
@@flack2998 university
How’s work? I was almost gonna be an architecture guy.
The layers of clear coat take that from "well it looks ok" to OMG that is AMAZING! Great tutorial thanks!
Hard not to admire the patient craftmanship in this kind of thing
That iis precisely WHY it's called a "hobby"!
1k like to me
I don't do hobby stuff like this, but this was really neat to watch.
I don't do stuff like this, but I do paint and I'm going... "Huh...Wonder if I can do that on canvas?!"
Ali Swanson Only your imagination is the limit ;)
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😅
@@AliSwanson1728 I do black and white drawings because I can't paint. Even crayons is a challenge for me.
@@myrealnameisjohndoe116 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.
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.
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.
I especially like the illusion of algae buildup on the edges 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩.
illusion LOL that is the key to not using the paper for its intended use first. Dont waste paper and make less realistic stuff !
brianbirc why are you spamming the comments shut the fuck up almost everyone can afford toilet paper weirdo
brianbirc Anything can be toilet paper if you’re brave enough.
@Inquiring Minds ... _IKR ?!! So realistic !!!_
@@kiakaha110 just that.. scares me XD
8:20 didn't see that comming
But that's what I love about Germanic sense of humour
It scared the crap out of me omg 😭😂
But that guy’s from Sweden 🇸🇪 isn’t he ?
@@itsrazvinotrizvi of course he is. Where did I ever say GermaN?
I got a heart attack. I watched it in 2 am
I screamed
I have absolutely no idea why this is recommended to me 8 years later
I'm thinking the same thing. Oh and "was toilet paper really so cheap people used it for crafts before covid" lol
Me neither. But I liked it. Never watched this guy or the subject before.
Yeah, like, what the fuck
incredible work, i have been in the modeling hobby for over 20 years and have never see such a simple and cheep way to make water features!
No idea why this was recommended but I’m not mad, this was weirdly interesting. Fair play TH-cam, you win this time.
My thoughts exactly haha
TH-cam has been doing this a lot recently...
Finally TH-cam does something great for once
Why is your picture the windows 7 koala?
mdawsss18 666 likes lemme like that
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'...
I want a way to heart this comment
It was sure interesting to watch though!
The algorithm matches by background music genre too.
@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
@@pubcollize lol
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!
I keep coming back to this video every time I do my river scene on my layout. I always need to check the drying times between coats. Thanks for doing these - they are inspiring!
I mean hell yea my guy but why was this recommended
Exactly :D though i once did watch some modeling videos since i made an airplane in my younger times
If you've ever clicked on anything that had anything to do with any hobby/craft, even for a second. Apparently. Still, cool technique
We're all wondering the same thing. It is cool though.
Same here.
Me too
This is one of the least complicated, cheapest and most effective methods I have ever seen.
100%
Finished product looks just as good as resin! Job well done!
Finally somebody who actually explain how to do it and doesnt just use random products expecting us to know what hes using
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.
Agreed
I concur, fair sir.
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!
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.
Before the clear coat, I was like not bad, but once you finished it, it was super good looking. Actually WOWed
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I paint miniatures as a side business mostly for games (dnd, bloodbowl, etc). I put together a pond display base for a slaan bloodbowl team using your technique. Thank you so much!
how did youtube know i secretly like realistic miniature scenery
Hehe! TH-cam algorithm knows.. Thank you for watching and commenting! I wish you a Merry Christmas!
@@marklinofsweden Thanks Marklin! Merry Christmas to you too!
Big Brother knows everything
I think we ALL secretly like miniature scenery
Play roblox prison life with me
When you’re a Swedish diorama maker but you still gotta let everyone know you are about that life with your background music
Spontaneous-Vulgar-Lingual-Combinations I just assumed he was Swedish cause his TH-cam is marklinofsweden
@Chris Haunton why? What's wrong with the music?
@Chris Haunton oh I didn't know porn even had music 😓
@Chris Haunton truly I didn't know, but good to know so I never use this type of music
I can’t see how that could be porn music-
That was great and frankly quite achievable by anyone. Thanks.
this man is ingenues, no silicone, no cheap store bought stuff, just pure genius. incredible.
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.
omg all those epoxy resin producers will be so pissed after realizing you don't have to pay 20$ for 1/4 liter of water anymore :D
Also epoxy is really bad for the environment cause it’s not renewable this is a much better option for everyone
@Seth Hultkrantz Good reason though. You should try drinking some epoxy, pretty tasty!
Seth Hultkrantz it’s still more valid than your whole existence
Seth Hultkrantz who pissed on your coffee?
@Seth Hultkrantz What's your problem asshole?
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
Very impressed by this technique. The result is AMAZING!
Meanwhile ......
Wife is Stranded on toilet wondering where all,the paper is .
😂🤣
Oof
😁😱
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.
@@brianbirc its not a waste ifits your hobby, and it looks good
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'll add a couple more thumbs.
Fantastic thank you, going to try this on a canvas so my son can use it to make a diorama with some toys
Coolest thing I've EVER SEEN. TRULY AN ARTIST
I don't know why I ended here but it was interesting to watch !
When the YT algorithm gets it right.
Darrel C indeed, i love the Scandinavian accent.
Epstein didn't hang himself
thank you i am an architecture student and a lake was a part of the landscape of one of my models you don't know how helpfully your video was. thank you
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!
I am so confused as to why I am here but I’m watching this whole video and nobody can stop me.
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?
Seems to be an interesting idea!
Yes and on the waves will be more realistic, but anyway it’s fantastic job 👍🏼
I have used this method for years using acrylic paints over toilet paper (or tissue) wave formed water and still learned more from you. Great video.
One word..
"AMAZING"
“Mom?! Where’s the toilet paper in the bathroom?!”
“Ask your DAD!”
haha lol
Had to read this twice to get it-
I don't get it
Pls don't woosh me (｡•́︿•̀｡)
"Mom! Where's dad?"
cordi the lonely the joke is the kid is asking where the toilet paper is. Mom replies ask your dad cause he’s the one who took it to make this video
youtube does A LOT of shit wrong...however recommending this was not one of them.
As always a truly step by step tutorial and fantastic results from basic craft-y stuff we all have already! Great when budgets tight and love your easy going non preachy manner Marklin!
So this is a new thing I just discovered exists today...
...and I'm obsessed!
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?
You didn’t have to call me out like that ..
literally same
Same
Same and then I never watch the ones in watch later
Shippo Chan no
Idk why this was in my recommendations but that 100% looks like water
This is absolutely genius!!
Thank you! This is exactly what I have been looking for. Your instructions are so clear and informative. I’m about to practice a bit before tackling my project. Extremely helpful was the Idea of placing the boat in ‘before’ water to produce the wake. My diorama doesn’t involve boats but prehistoric sea animals but the general concept is the same. This will give them a sense of ‘Movement’. Fortunately we produce an abundance of toilet paper here in Canada. Cheers. A big thumbs up!
I am honored to have this in my recommended
I was almost expecting to hear about a "happy little wave living right over here"! 😁 This was so relaxing and amazing to watch!
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! Thanks for a great lesson and a lot of fun!
I have to either cut down on the shatter, or st
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!
This is genius. I'll have to try this method.
Huh. An actually interesting TH-cam recommendation.
Guess it was bound to happen eventually.
TH-cam algorithm is never wrong. Today is your first day as a model railroader! 👍👍👍 Maybe an idea for the upcoming Christmas? 😉
@@marklinofsweden aye
@@marklinofsweden hyper realistic fire made from toilet paper.
I'm making a game board with a wharf area, and this is exactly the tutorial I needed to make realistic water. Thank you!
our Pre-Finals brought me here, we r required to make a 3D miniature model. this really helps.
So simple, yet I wouldn't have thought of this in a thousand years.
Let’s be honest,
*NO ONE SEARCHED THIS UP.*
Cookie Monster let’s*
of course.. i searched for "toilet paper recommendations" :)
i did. needed realistic water for a school miniature art project
Solrex the Sun King thanks
Actually I did
Just retired! Finally get to spend time on my hobbies. Thank you Marklin! This video is awesome. I hope 2022 finds you well! Paula from California
i’m an architecture student and this video helped me a lot with my model making lessons. thanks! 😃👍🏻
This looks great, I will try it when toilet papers are back in the markets.
I like ur humor sense 😂!
Filipines:Pathetic
💀😂😂😂
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
wow.... don’t make models for miniatures, but I think I can use this technique on other crafts I do! Sooo impressed!
That looks great. Maybe dry brush the waves with white paint to make them looking like they’re cresting.
Ant-man would love living in a world like this lol
I’ll send him an invitation! I need help here.
I found the glue, but this "toilet paper" you speak of does not exist in 2020. I think there is a roll in the local museum, but thieves may have swiped by now...
lol...my wife saw me trying to smuggle a roll into my work shop yesterday...busted
Yeah, this shows in my feed during the TP shortage of 2020.
Problem now solved, mass treasure troves of toilet paper have been discovered, and attempts to return them to their original owner have been made.....
you made my day with your comment!!! thank u for the lol
there was no shortage !
I just discovered your page and I have been unable to take my eyes off of the screen ever since.. your videos are absolutely amazing and I cannot believe how talented you are with creating these landscapes.. you are the motivation that I have been looking for- please keep posting and I look forward the new stuff in the future!!!
Wow Im blown away! So glad I came across your vid.. Now I can make my realistic koy fish pond without harmful epoxy resin or too much clear nail polish to make fake water! 👍👏👏
I don’t do miniature. But I do all kinds of other artistic things.
Thank you for adding another little trick to my artist bag!
So glad you recommend water based sealer. I have pretty much decided to use only water based products, easy cleanup and no bad fumes. I love this tutorial, will try it for sure!
I had been looking for an effect like thus for models of a miniature game, to make them look like they were rising out of the sea, and this looks incredible. 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.
Good job! Jw if you added a lil bit of white paint to bring out the 'caps' on the waves... Esp., on the wake from that boat!
Hope that helps! 👍
Thank you for saving me! I needed this for my ecosystem project and I’m trying to do a polar and I tried doing a practice and it turned out good! Thank you!
I used different supplies though like I used a different glue but it’s nearly the same as wood glue, I used normal paint (nothing special) and added some glue for the layer on top so that I can kinda highlight the water and then I added realistic water and did some waves
Just did my first test run using this technique. It's was so easy shaping the waves, and it was quite fun. Thanks for sharing this video!
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.
What glue did you use? It looks like floor glue is being used.
@@Shay_Davis_Talks I used just white glue (Elmer's I believe) as he suggests in the video. Cheap, easy to find, easy to clean up.
This is so pure!
Thank you! Great video, much appreciated.
Thanks. Fun to watch. Like all the tips about layering glue and varnish.
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 is what I love about model railroading, there is multiple ways to do stuff. This is true art.
Clever and very beautiful effect!
"But before you start, remember to ask your mum if you can use the toilet paper...." I'm not into model railways but I like painting and love the creativity here. I was a bit disappointed when he didn't put white froth at the top of the little waves, I would have been so tempted to do that. But in the end, the light shining on all the varnish on top of the paint gave you the same effect, or better. This was a really random video for me, but I loved it, and appreciate the care that went into making it.
"not so bad"
Excuse me. WHAT?! "NOT SO BAD"?! THAT IS EPIC
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!
The boat waves are my favorite, awesome 👏🏼
The final result looks so awesome!
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 got this recommended too so i can agree with most of you guys but can we talk about 8:21?
Yeahhhhhh jump scare much
That scared me...Went back to watch it over and over. LMAO.
gotta say, was not expecting that.
Between that and the comments mentioning the weird porno music I can't stop fucking laughing
Was thinking about that too tbh.
すごい！！
まさかこれがトイレットペーパーで出来ているなんて！
お見事です。
I do mixed media and this technique will be added into my bag of tricks! After it's dry, it would lend itself to wet-on-wet techniques with alcohol inks, watercolor, as well as acrylics, on canvas & other substrates. Thank you for an inexpensive alternative to rice or mulberry papers for texture, although here in the US we're having a run on TP at times (How I got here I'll never know, but I'm delighted)!
Damn this was made in 2016 took 4 years for TH-cam to recognize this man
