Thanks for sharing some of the techniques you use for your ultra realistic looks...BTW, the spring type connectors for the lighting on the removed building is a great tip too! It had me do a double take at first, until I saw the wires at the base😂
You're welcome! Those connectors are really helpful (they're just Woodland Scenics), I never permanently secure buildings so they give a 'quick release' for the interior lighting systems. I may swap out some of those for a less bulky option, particularly for smaller buildings once I start dealing with interior scenery.
Great result! I’ll have to try that at some point when I get further along with some of my scenery work. I’m a big fan of several diorama channels including Night Shift. We don’t just have to learn from fellow model railroaders.
Night Shift is the best. I love when he has a what seems like a complete scene and then he says, now it's time to paint the diorama. The rust/chipping and build techniques from armor modelers are incredibly useful for this hobby as well.
Thank you very much for showing the techniques and the process. This is the best tutorial for me. After watching this video, I really want to buy a set of airbrush equipment now but I don’t even know which ones to buy. Dats
I'd go for a high quality airbrush where possible, to ensure performance is what you want. There are a lot of airbrushes out there, I chose an Iwata Eclipse after spending some time reading and watching reviews, etc. TH-cam has tons of those.
Your layout is so delicately detailed. It looks so life-like and prototypical. Enjoying your videos very much, thank you for making and sharing them.
You're welcome Chris, thanks for watching!
2 videos in one day, you've spoiled us!
Thanks for your videos, I recently found your channel and you have an awesome model! Keep it up!
Thank you, really appreciate it!
All about the layers! Great technique. Thanks for posting.
Absolutely!!

Another outstanding video! Thanks for sharing.
I also use a dry brush technique to whisp blending colors into field grasses.
Interesting! That explains some of the nice turf colors on your layout!
