Looks like a lot of thought went into this update. I enjoyed it. I love that kit. I have done a couple myself. They are far from perfect out of the box but still manage to bring the layout to life. Great work.
Receiving feedback from someone of your caliber is quite an honour! Thank you for your thoughts and thank you for liking my video. It was fun, in a self condescending kind of way, to put together.
For my Walthers silo kit in N scale, I used Tamiya gray spray primer followed by Glidden Max-Flex Earthy Cane. It gives a very convincing aged tank concrete effect! These Wlathers kits are so easy to build and paint!
WOW that is very impressive! Flaws? Are you kidding! The warehouse came out perfect! I suck at gluing too, but your skills are better then mine :) part #26? I bet those are tiny parts :) The addition of the silo is a great addition, well done and cool weathering and colours. Combining Lance theme and your goal of adding interest and an appropriate structure I say you have succeeded! What you have accomplished is fantastic and it is very inviting to come over and do some switching at the plant. The dremel hahahahah I think we are all do the same thing. Great video, narration and story, funny too. Well done indeed.
This kind of feedback from a veteran in the hobby such as yourself is gracious and appreciated but let's be honest... undeserved. The quality and professionalism of your channel, your layout, your projects speak for themselves and are what inspires a newbie like me to experiment and try harder. Thank you for your support and encouragement!
You narration is very entertaining and enjoyable!! Another fantastic video, I believe your builds came out great, looks good! Bye bye chocolate, vanilla, and .... 😆 take care!
Thank you for your kind words of encouragement and support. I have to admit it was kind of scary to do but better to do it and mess up (and learn from it) than do nothing at all!
Nice, I have two of those merged for my Capital Foods on mine. Still need to finish it lol. I have always liked the plastics Pellet facility kit, nice to see what it looks like on the inside, I might have to pick that up for one of my industries. Nice video!
Absolutely love having YOUR feedback on my video, thank you! I may be biased but your work is beyond superb and I think you'll make the silos kit sing and dance with your skills.
Great video! Very entertaining. I can really relate. Loved it when you brought out the Dremel for some real precision work 😎. Don’t you love it when the ruler slips on your final pass of the knife 🤬. I have both of those books, and learned a lot from them. I have a scratch build video I need to edit and post. Wait till you see all the mistakes I made LOL. Take care!
Thank you for your kind feedback! And I am looking forward in seeing your scratchbuilt video. I am enjoying your channel and the professional work you've put on it. In fact, if you want to do a tutorial on how you make your awesome roads and striping, I would not say no!
I don’t know if I’d call my absolute lack of skills “tips” but I do appreciate the kind feedback from an established and experienced modeller such as yourself. Looking forward to being caught up on your channel!
I like your video, a lot! I hope this is helpful, not critical. You can take a common, boring box of a structure and make it a center piece. It comes down to painting, and that means adding depth to your subject matter. On a large flat surface, start with pre-shading, then build up with multiple, THIN, layers. You can always add more paint. It is a good idea to have a photo of the real thing to use as a reference. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is a pure single color. Concrete is not gray. Asphalt is not black. The sky is not just blue. Black is not black, but a combination of colors. BUY A COLOR WHEEL! Watch other TH-cam tutorials from military modelers on painting washes, pin washes, filters and dot filters. Experiment on scrap plastic. All of this is seems daunting, but it is really fun. Even the great modelers look back at their earlier models and shake their heads. Never stop building. Its about the journey. Enjoy it!
I love your unique video style. Very entertaining. The structure looks great, but I’ll miss the chocolate, vanilla, and slurry spreads. Now you have to stop the directly in front of the bay doors. :)
I did try and immediately realized that painting with a brush is something else I hope my livelihood won't ever depend on. Thank you for the kind feedback!
Haha! Seriously! Considering for how long those bottles served their purpose, sometimes I think that as long as your track is well laid and your trains run without any hiccups, scenery is all in the mind. Thanks for your feedback!
Thank you, Sir! Getting feedback from a modeller of your caliber is quite the honour and privilege! I’ll be sure to get caught up with your channel as I will clearly learn a thing or two hundred from you.
Very good up date. Nice job on the warehouse. But one issue that I have, you did not bitch about the Walthers instructions. So for that you get a fail😛
Bahaha! I'll be sure to have a rant about those on my next kit. The instruction for the silo were a bit... challenging. An absolute honour to have your opinion!

@@SouthDown I didn’t know I had a caliber. I’m just a guy who like playing with trains. Lol
Keep up the great work.
Don’t sell yourself short to those who look up to you!

This is a great pro-tip! Thanks for sharing! Do you have a link to a video of your warehouse?

I am glad that my silly video was as entertaining as I had hoped. I really appreciate receiving YOUR feedback, it means a lot!
Looks awesome I always have trouble building those
I'm amazed it came out resembling something other than a pile of hot garbage. Thank you for your feedback!
Always loving these videos
Thank you! I appreciate the kind feedback.
Nice work dude! Really inspiring seeing someone make stuff like this as a beginner.
Thank you for your kind words of encouragement and support. I have to admit it was kind of scary to do but better to do it and mess up (and learn from it) than do nothing at all!
Great story telling. I too just bought the same kit and I’m bashing it and making it my own. This was motivating me to paint and finish it.
Do it! Will you be posting a short one-minute video about it when you’re done? Would love to see it. Thanks for the kindness in your feedback!
Nice, I have two of those merged for my Capital Foods on mine. Still need to finish it lol. I have always liked the plastics Pellet facility kit, nice to see what it looks like on the inside, I might have to pick that up for one of my industries. Nice video!

That looks awesome....NICE JOB!!!
It is an honour to have had your eyes all over my video. Thank you!
Phenomenal job man. Excellent use of colours and use of the space. I don’t see any flaws, just an industry I want to switch at.
Wow! Getting feedback from you is such a reward! Thank you for the encouraging words and appreciation!
Cool warehouse.👍♐
Thank you! Amazed it is still standing.

@@SouthDown oh good idea, I will add that to the list. Thanks!
Thanks for sharing these tips, greatly appreciate it.

This is excellent advice. I will need to mention you in my next video and show how I’ve applied this.
I love your unique video style. Very entertaining. The structure looks great, but I’ll miss the chocolate, vanilla, and slurry spreads. Now you have to stop the directly in front of the bay doors. :)
Having your opinion on my video is quite the privilege! I definitely have to stop in front of the bay doors, I just hope HAL will open them.
@@SouthDown Lol
Love the first structure! But you could have given the bottles of acrylic paint the honor of coloring the structure ...
I did try and immediately realized that painting with a brush is something else I hope my livelihood won't ever depend on. Thank you for the kind feedback!
Slightly disappointed that your structure wasn't just gluing the three paint bottles to that piece of styrene. 🤣 Looks good, though.
Haha! Seriously! Considering for how long those bottles served their purpose, sometimes I think that as long as your track is well laid and your trains run without any hiccups, scenery is all in the mind. Thanks for your feedback!
Looking good! How deep (wide) is your layout?
The layout is 14 inches deep, which makes it really easy when I’m sitting on a stool to reach all the ground throws. Thanks for the kind feedback!
well done

👍👍👍👍looks good to me
Thank you, Ron! I appreciate your feedback and encouragement!
it looks pretty good to me :)
Thanks! I appreciate your vote of confidence!

You really did a great job for your first project.
This is really awesome, can we be friends?! 😉
More importantly, why aren't we already?!
@@SouthDown 😂😂😂 I'm blushing
