I keep coming back to this video to refresh my memory on how to use black construction paper (I bought 2 packs) and some grey primer (I just got today) to make tar paper roofing. I've got a couple of buildings I've been wanting to use this method on. Thanks for all the great ideas. I use women's eye shadow makeup for my weathering powders as it sticks better than any powders you could ever use and it only costs $1.00 & comes in every color under the sun. Cheers from eastern TN
Came back to this video and rewatched it, then used your techniques to put a tar paper roof on a building I'm modeling. Turned out pretty good, so far! Thanks again!
Been doing basically the same thing for 40 years and also using 400-600 grit sheets of black wet/dry sandpaper.. And it has the way more texture that you want just like the real shingles in life. Especially in larger scales. Your work is awesome young man!. Keep the videos comming please!..
Pretty awesome video.... off and on I used to work for my uncle's company doing Roofing ever since the age of 14 and I have to say that sandpaper looks like authentic roofing material on a scale building. the sandpaper also kind of resembles the slate tile roofs that you see on big $$$ houses!
I'm new to this hobby and find your tutorials are very informative and well presented. Great to see what can be achieved with simple techniques. Thank you Jason.
Thanks for posting all these videos! They have been super helpful. For my version of this I used black poster board I picked up cheap. It’s a bit thicker than construction paper and you can give it even more dimension with the sand paper and knife.
Fantastic tutorial! I tried this technique and got a very nice result that set my “shake-the-box” kit a bit different from all the other ones out there. Thank you for taking the time to put together these super useful videos!
Great technique, Jason! I'm also interested in Asbestos siding and roofing! That material was used from about the 20s to early 60s. There are many buildings where you can see it today. Thanks! P.S. Tacky glue also works really well too.
Jason, this is incredibly good, not only the technique and your work, but your easy to follow teaching too. This channel should be big someday. Thanks for sharing, I’m going to use this technique on my diorama structures soon. Take care... Anthony
Jason, You cut the strips 3/8", does that represent 30" in HO scale. I model in S and want to convert the proper width to S. Also in another video Iwatched, you used chalk to weather the shingles. Did you use a soft or medium bristle brush? Thanks. Steve

Great video. I'm just ready for my roof on my first wood kit.

Thank you so much! I love being able to share this great hobby with others like yourself.
You have a great eye for detail. Thank you
Thank you for watching!!!
Another great video! I'm getting ready to try your method for doing metal roofing :)
Thanks for watching!!!
Jason, after you apply your weathering chalks, do you spray them with a dull cote or something like that to seal them??
Thanks and fantastic work!!!!
Thank you so much Ed!!! No, I do not seal it!
great idea love your videos
Thank you so much!!!
This type roof detail is so realistic. But I am not going to let you work on my home roof! 😂
That was great!
Thank you so much!!!

Thanks for sharing,
Thanks for watching!!!
Great idea! What’s your scale?
This was HO scale.
Nice look. I’m trying this one.
Thank you!!!
Excellent!
Thanks for watching!!!
Jason, what is the material that roof is made of (applying tar paper to)?
Its chip board. I have used card board from cereal boxes before, if you cant find chip board. Michael's craft store sells it.
Got it. Thanks.
What is construction paper? It isn't a product that I've heard of before (I don't live on the US) Is it the same as sandpaper?
It is not sandpaper. Maybe look for craft paper at a art supply store.
