New update on my model railroad layout and adding details.

- In this I give you an update on the harbor scan that I'm building on my model railroad layout. I talk about creating a story or history to help make your layout or diorama more realistic. I also discuss using photo reference to help give your modeling more of a natural look.
We start a new structure and add some details to some old structures. I also give you a close up look at the progress on the harbor scene and discuss how I'm creating the illusion of history on it.
If you would like to see more of my work, please visit me on

Thank you for watching and
happy modeling!!!
I live in New Zealand, problem I am now faced with ... Hobby space = sorted, scale = sorted, what you want to model = sorted. Loco's required, can't find them any where.
Might have to start shopping online.
Awrite big man hows life ,...isopropyl alchahol mixed with your paint instead of water wil stop warping n dry it toot sweet...depending on paint it might need a little water as well.
Love your channel!! ....❤
Thank you so much Jim, I appreciate the advice. Thanks for watching!!!
Hi Jason I am a new subscriber, great work , you build 2 models here (1) waterfront willys & other one, I missed the name for second model please let me know the name of the second model thanks
Thank you so much for subscribing! I really appreciate it. The second kit was a limited edition kit from Barmills which contained 3 seperate structures. The kit sold out so it is no longer available. Sorry about that. Thanks for watching!!!
I'm still amazed by your painting of the sky on the walls! 👍
Thank you so much William!!!
Watching from Brazil 🇧🇷 Great video.
Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate it!
Hello, you certainly put an amazing amount of thought into what you do. Having a history for your layout is as important as giving it a purpose. Your buildings are museum quality. Stunning in their detail. Your art background shows up in your color work. I'm looking forward to future episodes. See ya next time.
Thank you so very much Norman, I really appreciate it!!!
Bingeing on your videos to catch up. One question: did you build the stools?
My dad built them.
Hi Jason, very nice video. I just curious how many hour you need to take to build one building in average?
Thank you so much!!! I guess on average it takes a week.
Have you ever tried PanPastels or weathering powders with a binding agent?
I have not for the simple fact that I have enough pastel chalks to last me years. I've used pastels ever since I started and I'm really happy with the results.
@@JasonJensenTrains ... You may have mentioned this in annother Video: So if so, which one (I haven't watched them all yet)?
What would you suggest to use as a type of sealer on Pastels for a Moduler Layout, where small parts are not permantly attached to the surface, to prevent rubbing?
Neville, I would suggest Testors dull coat. I've used it in the past and I'm happy with the results!
@@JasonJensenTrains Thanks Jason.
Thank You Jason for Your response! I see that You don't use tube acrylic paints! I have plenty of them! Why You don't use them?
I love the building with the water tank and the boom crane, that you showed up close in this video. Could you please tell me the name of the kit or kits? Did you video the build of it? Thank you,
Thank you so much!!! It was a limited edition kit from Barmills called a tribute to the Franklin and South Manchester kit #1. Its sold out really fast.
Question, do you have a 3D printer to do your small pieces you put out by the building or do you buy them from a supplier?
Jason why don't you have a pier with a building that has collapse into the water?
Thanks Jason. Another great lesson and demonstration of your layering of shades and dry-brushing techniques. I also use a lot of craft paints, but have used palettes so I can close the bottles. Do you find it has any effects on the paint leaving them open for a while as you use different shades?
Thank you so much Greg, I really appreciate it!!! I feel I dont waste as much paint. I tend to put to much paint on the pallet. I need to work on that. Thanks for watching Greg!!!
Nice looking layout Jason.
Mike
Thank you so much!!!
Very beautiful!!!!!!!
Thank you so much!!!
Great Video, Jason. I like your Finishing Techniques. Have you considered putting small random amounts of the Mixture, that you suggested could represent Rust, on the base of the Bster Traps, and just touchinh them to a couple of random locations on the Deck/s, so that it looks like residue from piles of traps that had been sitting there for a while? It would also take any bare look from such decks.
ps .. Something that might be of help to your viewers, is that, as you are obviously aware, the Any Particular Colour will Look Different on Different Materials/Surfaces, such as a Certain Mix of Paint will look like a different Shade of it on Various Types of Wood, and it will look different again on Plastic. Just like on different Types/Grades of Paper.
(I worked in the Commerecial Printing Industry for about 16 years, and my mother is an Artist - although, she doesn't do much these days)
Thank you so much Neville!!! I really appreciate all your feedback. Thanks for watching!!!
So glad you posted this update Jason. Have you given any thought to the type of bridge you plan to put over the harbor? I know you approach is typically more Artistic but if you decide to go more prototypical, I would imagine a lift bridge of some type in order to give clearance to larger vessels or even sailing ship masts. Most lifting bridges would be large and more complicated structures but a small draw bridge or even a rolling lift style would fit that area well and wouldn't over power the scene. In fact a rolling lift style would look amazing with the mechanical end facing the front of the isle where the detail can show. Cheers, Rob
Thank you so much for watching, I really appreciate it!!! I really haven't given much thought yet to the bridge. Thanks for the input!!!
Great progress and thanks for the details. Your work is absolutely amazing and we especially enjoy your roofs.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!!
Jason, this was interesting and fun to watch. I can hear in your voice the love for this hobby, I feel the same, it's great. Now you made me want to get on of those kits and build just for the fun of it. Incredible job assembling and painting that kit.
Thanks for sharing and glad that I found you on both FB and YT

The Wharf scene is looking incredible!! looking forward to the next visit!!
Thank you so much!!!
Those are awesome!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!!
A rock jetty would be cool, with light
This is absolutely amazing. I had never purchased a laser cut kit before this week. You and others have inspired and me so I purchased Waterfront Willy’s in N scale on Monday and it arrived today. I am certainly enjoying this video this evening. Thanks Jason!
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment, I really appreciate it Chad!!!
I think you are one of the best model railroaders in this day and time of the hobby. It's great that you share it with TH-cam modeling community. Love your videos and I'm always anxiously waiting for new ones. You are going to have a masterpiece for a model railroad when finished. 👍
Thank you so much William, I really appreciate the kind words!!!
You certainly have the knack Jason , we're in the middle of a small harbour scene as well . Keep em coming mate. Tezza
Thank you so much Terry, I really appreciate it!! Good luck on your layout!!
Another great video sir. Thanks for posting. Being an artist has really helped you.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!!!
Great job love your video's. Question Do you put a sealer on your buildings to protect the finish.
Thank you so much Glenn!!! NEVER seal structures.
I really enjoy the incredible details you put into your building projects, I've saved a number of videos for some of my future dioramas.
Thank you so much for watching, I really appreciate it!!!
Man, you have a great eye for color!
Where can I get this kit please?
The kit is from Barmills but unfortunately it is sold out. It was a limited edition kit.
Oops. Any other similar kits. I mean the laser cut ones that you know of. Please send me the link.
Great post, Jason.
Would really appreciate an explanation/video about how you do window glass.
Thank you so much!!! For my windows I always use clear acetate. I'll try to show how I apply it in a upcoming video.
Great work! thanks for the update ! I've been watchin a lot of your stuff, it always gets me motivated in my layout , keep the up dates coming !
Thank you so much for watching!!!
The details seem very cohesive. They scream Model Tech Studios. Great harbor scene work as well.
Thank you so much!!! And Thanks for watching!
Another great video, I am amazed and enjoy watching you work, looking forward to the next one.
Thank you so much George, I really appreciate it!!!
Simply amazing! Your attention to detail is mind blowing. Thanks for the inspiration
Thank you so much Scott, I really appreciate it!!! And Thanks for watching!!!
Great job Jason! Your detailing is phenomenal I always enjoy your videos.
Thank you so much!!!
Jason, Love your videos. In one of them you recommend the type of pastel weathering chalks you use and where you buy it, but I can't find it. Please relate that info here, if you don't mind....THANKS!
Thank you so much Allan!!! It's in the video your commenting on called New update on my model railroad layout and adding details.
@@JasonJensenTrains Great. Thanks
*Paynes Grey* is a very good base for washes and aging wood.
Thanks for the tip, I'll have to try that!!
All your buildings have so much character. Like how you can take that plain building kit and make it look so real.
Thank you so much!!! I have such a passion for this hobby. Thanks for watching!
@@JasonJensenTrains How much time or over what period of time has it taken to get to this point in time. I need to go back now and look at your series of video.
Great video with sound advice! Thanks. Question: How do you attach your buildings to your layout? Forgive me if you've covered this in a different vid. Thanks much. Gerry
I use Elmer's glue or sometimes Liquid Nails.
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!!!
@@JasonJensenTrains Thanks Jason!
Great job as always. Glad to have you back.
Thank you so much Edwin!!! It difficult in the summer to get modeling done but fall is around the corner. Thanks for watching!!!
As said by others "Amazing"...going to try your methods on my waterfront castings this weekend. Thanks Jason!
