Modeling Realistic Shoreline Details | River Road - Vlog #87

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ก.ย. 2024
- Adding Shore Line Details make a River Bank or Lake Side stand out. This short tutorial demonstrates how I model stumps and snags in HO (1/87) scale. This method works for any scale and is suitable for the beginner as well, because almost anything goes.

Mind blowing detail!!
Thank you! Cheers!
I am always amazed at your methods and techniques. The realism is off the chart.
Wow, thank you!
So I created my first little scene using your static grass clump technique and posted a picture on a FB modellers page. I was amazed to get about 500 positive comments and many asked how I did it. I said there's really only ONE resource I use now: Boomer Diorama......Spreading the word. You're the best. (Would love to see you model a mountain with tunnel one day :))
Glad to hear you are benefiting from the tutorials and gleaning greater enjoyment from the hobby. Thank you for thee shout out as well! ;-) Cheers.
Always a great day when we get a new Boomer video.
You're the best!
Masterclass.
;-)
Hey Boom thanks for planting trees and contributing to earth day.
Our pleasure!
Unique sensitivity, undoubtedly a real genius. Your work is a masterpiece that inspires anyone who gets to know about it. Hope you're well, Boomer. Greetings from Argentina.
Thank you dear Sir from Argentina! I am feeling well - God willing. ;-) Cheers ~ Boomer.
I am the scenery guy for my train club and your videos have taught me many things, plus they inspire me immensely to want to incorporate your scenery techniques into the club layout and my own....Keep 'em coming Boomer, we can't get enough !!
Great to hear! Keep having fun! ~ Boomer.
Nice to know what tou can do with your own creativity, I walk in a open Arboritum today and was amazed at your work all over the place......
Wow, thank you!
Yeah another great River Road video! 😀
Thank you! Cheers.
Those turned out great! Thanks for sharing the technique!
Thank you! Cheers!
Learn so much from every video of yours! Amazing work!
Awesome, thank you!
I've always liked your sawdust technique I use sifted peat moss and it works really well.
Peat Moss . . . I never thought of that but sounds cool!
I’ve had good results with golden crackle paste directly over the sawdust/matte medium mix instead of a second layer of MM.
Sound good!
it's almost too much to take in at one time, I'm glad I can watch the tapes over and over again. I'm a little slow
Take your time! Cheers.
New modeler, new subscriber. Having fun learning from a real master. Grateful for all you've shared on this channel.
Before applying sawdust - Do you thin the matte medium or use it straight?
Cheers,
Josh
Welcome aboard! Great question. I find the Liquitex (Professional) to be of such good quality that I can thin down to 50/50 and use it with confidence. After using it you will decide what works best. Sometimes I just make sure the brush is always wet and then use full strength matte medium.
@@boomerdiorama Thanks, man.
I will have to try this technique when there is an opportunity. It may be useful for larger items, but with N scale I'm guessing using natural materials still may be required for some smaller items.
Absolutely use natural materials for sure. N scale is a challenge for sure. I would model in N except my eyes grow dim. ;-) Cheers.
Do you take the tide into consideration when placing this debris , or just follow the photographs ? I ask because you may not be modeling from photos for any number of reasons.
Yes I do, but the tide is relative to many other factors in the model - what came first, the chicken or the egg kind of dilemma. Furthermore, it was the track height road bed that determined the Barge slip position, which was reinforced by a chosen tide line.
The tide line was determined last once I figured out the height and exposed piles on the Barge Approach. It was all very methodical and unorthodox like most things are with model railroad scenery elevations and composition. It took a lot of thought and fore-planning as I was building the Barge slip while making sure the water substrate would not elevate it above grade if that makes sense.
Once the Tide line was established I just laid in the shoreline debris, some buried in sand, some newer in deposit, etc. ;-) Cheers.
@@boomerdiorama Thanks, I wouldn't have thought it took that much pre thought. Well planed, great results.
@@bobainsworth5057 The water level relative to the Barge Slip piles (below the girders) dictated the whole tide line across the shore on section one. ;-)
