Just wanted to thank you for your videos ! They are brilliant! I am just starting an 8x4 layout with room for extension later on and you have given me so many ideas. Your detailed explanation of steps during construction and attention to detail is genius! Thanks Luke
I watch the entire videos just to see that part. Don’t get me wrong there is something very calming in watching the videos, but that end shot is always the best part.
When he said that the colour scheme is modelled after Pyramid Hill station, I jumped up from my chair! I came from that very small town and used to wait in that station to take the train coming from Swan Hill to Bendigo and Melbourne. My family still lives there. Dude, I never thought I would see or hear Pyramid Hill mentioned anywhere. Brought back so many memories of my early life in Australia. Thanks Luke for this awesome video! Cheers mate.
I'm in NC and have just begun doing realistic modeling and I want to thank you Luke for the inspiration! Amazing tutorials for a beginner like myself!! I am going through cancer treatments and this helps me keep focused and relaxed, so once again, thank you for the inspiration!
"No station would be complete without an outdoor dunny. I've 3d printed some giant hunstman spiders for added realism. You can't see them because they are under the toilet seat."
What? Huntsmans hang out in gaps in the sheeting so they can scuttle out and scare the shit right out of ya. Everyone knows it's redbacks that hide under the seat
@@hairymcnipples There is a song "Redback on the toilet seat" a quick search of TH-cam will find it. It comes from the days in Australia when toilets were called " the dunny" and were out side the house in the back yard. In rural areas the dunny was a usually a long drop which when it was full you just dug another one.
You really need to make sure that every model has the ability to be joined in some way to others, imagine an entire series of your models placed into a massive display at model railway shows for example. It would win first prize for sure. Great video and great modelling as usual!
@@timothydore2302 I don't doubt that at all, but it would be awesome to do. I've seen some modellers build great big trailers with drawers and side entry so carry all the segments in one hit. It can be done.
Seriously Luke Your skills are truly next level. You do realise that you could give up flying and built Diaramas full time. I think they would over time become recognized as true works of art like a Pecaso for example. Nick
What a convincing model. I"m Australian and i instantlyl recognised this as depicting an Australian location. After watching the video I am just like so many others - in AWE at Luke's understanding of the tiny nuances of what he's modelling. Thank you Luke, this is a study level video that we could all aspire to.
I can picture a "Red Rattler" at your beautifully finished station . I'm 73 and can still remember "SPENCER STREET" station , and some of it's secrets ....lol They use to have weighing machines on them ,...some for parcels and some big silver ones for people. Cheers Luke , .........keep up the magic .
How could anyone not like this video. It's amazing. And why are so many people so reticent to hit 'like'. It costs nothing to hit 'like'. I wish I had the time and space to make some of these dioramas myself. Watching videos by a master craftsman like Luke will have to suffice.
Monsieur je n'ai pas de mots pour vous dire ce que j'éprouve (pas assez bon en Anglais) en regardant vos vidéos. Vous êtes un génie, je regarde et regarde encore vos vidéos et je suis sous le charme ! Je n'ai jamais vu quelque chose d'aussi intéressant sur le net ! Bravo Monsieur je vais acheter un t-shirt et en parler à le radio (nationale) où je travaille.
Last night: "Luke Towan seems due for another video..." Today: The prophecy has come true... Amazing, as always. The work is beautiful, but the way you shoot and edit makes the process so enjoyable to watch. I hope you never get tired of doing these. :)
Wonder if there is a lot of peps like me that don't have this as a hobby or anything, who is just here to admire the craftsmanship and his voice walking you trough the build :)
As always your work is exceptional. Next year, (with my retirement) I'll begin my life long dream of model railway. You certainly have inspired me with all your wonderful tips and ideas
Not only the modeling work is amazing, but something to notice is how much more enjoyable are the videos because of the editing job. I just have the need to point that out.
Adds a safety line to "keep people from falling off" and I'm thinking "you silly man people aren't that small". Then it hits me... "this dude is a pilot, everything looks scaled down to him on a daily basis. Small IS reality to him!" Lol My uncle (an artist for NASA) is quote as saying anyone can be a good artist with enough patience over time. You sir always take the time.
Your work never ceases to amaze me. You have an amazing talent for capturing beautiful scenes and structures. Thank you so much for sharing your projects with us!
I am impressed by this fantastic work. When you watch you do it, it looks so easy. Very few people recognize the enormous craftsmanship and creativity that you lovingly put into your dioramas. I take my hat off to this work of art with respect. Greetings Frank
Your attention to detail truly sets you apart, excellent work👍 A trick I learned for working with laser cut wood (any wood really), is to give it a light coat, or two, of a lacquer clear coat followed by a wipe, with some fine steel wool. The clear coat seals the wood and the steel wool removes any fuzz, making subsequent painting easy.
Another masterpiece crafted by an amazing person. I love every work u do and i'm learning so much from your tutorials. Also a great way to end a really hard work day.
Absolutely stunning! I have watched several of your TH-cam videos. You bring model building to level I have not seen before. In fact, you are an artist!
@@BoulderCreekRailroad this video is going to be a great help once I start building my end to end layout based around the small town of Bridgewater. Thanks again Luke for bringing these videos up to the world!

Yaaay, a new video 😃 I've found your channel just a few days ago and binge watched pretty much all of your videos, while been in lockdown. Such great content, thanks for the distraction from the current situation. Warm regards from Germany :-)
Fantastic tutorial, and model, Luke! I'm really glad to see the Victorian, and V/Line, theme come back :) You've really captured a typical Victorian Railways country station beautifully. And I love the way you've done the track; a few years ago I was looking at, along with a friend, using hand laid code 55 rail with timber sleepers and etched plates/spikes. But the amount of work needed meant I just stuck with peco code 75 instead... I'll definitely need to look at this method for a planned layout though! And you've made me want to get back onto the scenery for my current Victorian branchline layout :) It's also great to see a few Aussie brands coming up. SMS is doing great work with their paints, powders, and other items (I absolutely love their sprue cutters!). Hopefully more people pick up their products. I'm not sure if you've come across them, but there's some nice ballast products from Matts Ballast, and Chucks Ballast. Both make great range of ballasts to represent ballast from various quarry locations. You'd be amazed at what we successfully used for ballast in Victoria (loco ash was common; we even had a few branchlines that are recorded as 'sand ballast'...).
I have been asked by my brother in law a very interesting question: What is the channel that you are most excited to see show up in your sub feed? Luke Towan is the answer.
@@BoulderCreekRailroad it's good to be living in india,cause all of my American and western notifications come at 3 am but yours come at evening since I live in India
Yeah I think I'm quite luck being a regional pilot, it seems the regional flying is picking up a bit faster than domestic. I feel for the international guys! International flying is almost non existent in Australia at the moment!

Oh my gosh Luke, loved every second of this video. Wonderfully made. Thank you....btw does your wife know where all her clothes pegs have disappeared to 😄😄. Take care as always
Nice work with the camera slide getting the timing just right to follow your ballasting, great effect. I wanted to try something similar to follow the switching in a yard.
yeah it worked just right! It would be very cool to do a switching video following the train like that, unfortunately I don't have a switching yard to try it but I imagine you could do something like that on your layout very effectively 😉
@@BoulderCreekRailroad so true on that, I just do not have the budget for a motorized slider. I do like the added video affects you are doing! Great work as always! Stay Frosty My Friend

I thought that was a little odd. But I've lived my entire life in the USA so I assumed it must be an Australian thing to have some toilets without a roof. Making room for Waldo definitely makes more sense.
i honestly love waiting for months to get this kind of quality content! every time Luke updates it’s a 30+ minute trip to pure relaxation, and i learn something along the way that i can use in my own personal builds.
The mortar dust effect looked amazing! Surely an Australian train station needs some giant spiders hanging around, with dessicated human corpses hanging from webs
Absolutely incredible work, as always. The only thing I can think of to add is discarded railroad spikes. I grew up walking up and down the train tracks behind my house and there were always rusty old spikes lying about all over the place - especially anywhere that old rails were still lying by the side of the tracks.
Sir, do you really think it’s a good idea to leave the leftover rails laying around there? Don’t you know that hoodlums go around and steal steel and other metal materials?
Unless they're cutting them to much shorter lengths, even a couple guys would need a crane to lift lengths like that. Even that rail when scaled up to prototype would be somewhere in the range of 85lbs per yard.
David R Lentz, USA (updated, edited) Well, hello, again, Mr. Towan! After gaping in abject awe at the photo-realistic visuals of your diorama here, I could see when I saw your name why it somehow seemed so familiar. I have been viewing several videos on the better-quality works. Watching you work as you explain to your viewers each step of your various œuvres was so extraordinary I found it genuinely entertaining, as well as engagingly educational! I personally prefer 1:25th-scale-as you know is close to G gauge, which would fit well with the many cars, trucks (lorries and articulated vehicles?), aircraft (I have seen round a dozen), etc., in the field of plastic scale model assembly kits. I recently saw a video depicting a man creating out of metal an accurate replica in 1:25th-scale of the original United Starship Enterprise, NCC-1701 in the original 1960s television series Star Trek (Paramount/NBC)-all 288.6456 metres (947 feet) of it! (I wonder how he intends to carry it out the front door!)
It was just last week I was thinking: "hmm... Luke Towan hasn't uploaded in a while". Now I can see why - this was so worth the wait!

How do you make this all while upside down?!
100+ hours? Jeez... this is not a lot considering the end result... top job Luke
POV: you're watching this tutorial knowing full well you are never going to make this.
I watch football but I’m too old to play.
you dont need to want or intend on making this to be interested in and appreciate the process that goes into its construction.
a week late but then again you're one of my most-awaited youtuber. cheers!
