      Elizabeth Gramm I watched Bob Ross videos every night for over a month for that same reason.... then I started painting because of the videos. But yes, listening to Bob Ross talk and watching him create was quite soothing to my anxiety. And now I have this as well.

      Yes indeed. I just did a cutout in my Styrofoam board for a lazy creek or small river. Will (try!) to get Luke's results as I've never done any scenery before. Studying real scenery and watching these MRR channels are a great way to overcome lack of imagination.

I especially enjoy the little things like the creative places you will put the list of materials you were currently using! Keep up the fantastic work!

    Luke, you are truly a modelling Jedi and the force is strong with you. I've watched this video about 37 times now, and all your others of course, and have been applying the techniques on my own build - first time doing a river scene. Just wanted to say thank you for putting this together. Really love your work and the way you put your videos together. So clear and easy to follow. Will get on over to Patreon soon. Will send you a photo of my finished project, would appreciate your feedback. Thanks again mate!

  • @laredawg99
    @laredawg99 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    TIP: I've sometimes used a guy with a fishing pole in my dioramas. However, from an HO scale perspective the fishing line in this case would be just about invisible. For this I tried using the finest human hair I could possibly find (which looked more convincing), but even then I wasn't satisfied. In the end I decided to leave it off entirely. Regardless, keep wowing us all with your incredible techniques and videos. Can't get enough!

      yeah the layout is still a work in progress, these dioramas basically just sit on the shelf and after a while some of them may get dismantled to build new dioramas. I'll do some more videos on my actual train layout later on when I start doing some more work on it.

    Have you thought of having your dioramas connect together to form a larger layout? Maybe do another diorama that connects to this one. It can have a waterfall, or a hydropower dam, or anything else associated with rivers.

    • @BoulderCreekRailroad
      @BoulderCreekRailroad  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The dioramas don't join together however I'll be filming a waterfall diorama soon and I really like your idea of having it connect to this one. Thanks so much for the great tip! 😀

    Hi Luke,
    This is a great video and your river technique, I wish to employ in my viaduct (video to follow).
    My question is, having painted the river bed onto a plywood base, can I apply the Envirotex Lite, straight onto the acrylic paint. I’m worried that it could lift etc.
    Regards Charlie

    • @billroot2692
      @billroot2692 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just used enviortec on my first ever river diorama on a foam core base with no additional sealer, then painted with light coats of acrylic and some sponged accent colors. Not a single bubble......Not sure acrylic paint would adequately seal the wood. Mix a small amount of enviortec and apply it to a small area to see. Follow the instructions explicitly ! re: exact equal amounts of resin and hardner, and mixing times. Great stuff....
