I’m slowly going over to AMMO for all powders/slimes etc, they really have a skill for it. Lucky enough that my local model shop (I say local, it’s Chester, still 30 miles or so) stocks their range
Very good. There must be an easy way to get an accurate 45 degree angle on the plastic, just wish I new it. That weathering powder really did a magic trick.
Been following these videos since you started; what a fantastic job! This one in particular is really inspiring me to just get some materials together and have a go at modelling structures myself. Do you know who makes that small half-round plastic tubing you used for the gutter? I'm over in the US, and the two biggest manufacturers here (Evergreen and Plastruct) don't seem to make anything of that profile in a size small enough for 4mm scale... unless I'm mistaken. Keep up the great work!
That’s really nice to hear, thanks you for watching! Yes most of my strut and rod is Evergreen, which as you say, is a US company. But I didn’t actually use half round , as you’ve found, you can’t get it so small. This is actually ‘U’ shaped, but it’s so small you can’t really notice!
@@GWilliamsonModels You're right, it's so small you don't notice - I certainly didn't on first watch! I suppose what threw me off is that Evergreen refers to it as "channel" on their website, as opposed to U-shaped. Funny considering they denote other shapes with letters...! Thanks for your help!
@@redtrain9419 ah yes channel, that’s the one! I just though that it would look more convincing than solid half rod, seeing as it have the hollow inside
George very nice! I have watched several times now but can’t get the colour of the weathering powder, could you add it in the comments or even better add a link. Very simple but very effective keep up the good work. Thanks
I usually leave powders as they are if it’s on scenery, and seal them on rolling stock. You could seal them in, but they don’t tend to get disturbed on the layout like on a model
That weathering powder takes the walls straight from "model" to "real slate" - it's amazing to see the transformation! :D
How satisfying is it to watch as-well! Gets me every time 😅
Not expecting to hear a fallout 4 song on a modeling video. Good video 👍
The fallout series has amazing soundtracks
George, well done !
I am very impressed by the result of your weathering.
I do look forward for future videos.
Best wishes
Dirk
Thanks mate, it’s like magic powder when it’s going on, so happy I worked that out 😅
Must get some of that weathering powder. Lovely texture.

Nice work on the station building. I've been looking for some inspiration for this and you've helped me :)
That’s the best thing to hear, if I’ve inspired or motivated someone to do some modelling - job done!
Watching all these Videos, makes Me want to give up Railway Modelling, when I see your amazing work, My Modelling is never good enough is it ?
Honestly I feel exactly the same when I’m looking at other peoples modelling, I’m sure you’re a great modeller, just don’t see it
Very good. There must be an easy way to get an accurate 45 degree angle on the plastic, just wish I new it. That weathering powder really did a magic trick.
There probably is a tool for that, but it’s not in my arsenal so it’s a bodge job for me 😂
Nicely done.
Thanks mate
@@GWilliamsonModels Thank you for producing such interesting and informative video's.
@@seakr9838 my pleasure!..it literally is, it’s my hobby 😅
Fabulous, thanks 🥳👍
Glad you enjoyed it! Next video is at 07:00 tomorrow!
If you want to do a sandstone building just do the basis building , overlay it with sandpaper and you hapoy
Thanks, I’ll keep that in mind for the future
Great video, but the music!
Yeah, I get mixed opinions on the music, I keep it on as I prefer to watch videos with music instead of dead noise

@@phillipharding7358 hi, yes it’s ‘Europe earth’ by mig AMMO. Link to one here: www.migjimenez.com/en/pigments/170-ammo-pigment-europe-earth.html
Do you seal the weathering powder, or leave as is George?
I usually leave powders as they are if it’s on scenery, and seal them on rolling stock. You could seal them in, but they don’t tend to get disturbed on the layout like on a model
@@GWilliamsonModels thankyou.
