Model A Dirty, Filthy Pond

If you like detailing your layout, you'll love creating a polluted, trackside pond for your layout or diorama. In this video we'll show you how to create a pond bed, add static grass and scenery and load it up with junk, and lastly add resin for water. With Doug Foscale from Fos Scale Models..

A stocking/pantyhose on the end of your vacuum can save all that excess static grass. Not that it’s a bank breaker ;)

Doug, great video on making a special feature. Every town in the world has a back poluted pond.
Cheers, and greeting from Australia, stay safe, Michael

Something people usually miss when modeling industrial areas adding debris and junk is paper trash blowing around. In more modern times along with the paper there's cardboard and plastic trash blowing around too.

[@FosScaleModels]

I agree, I plan on adding piles of cardboard and paper trash .

Inspirational video! Thanks Pete in Australia

Great instructional vid as always! Once I made a muddy pond for a nephew's layout. I used Tasters Choice Instant with the liquid acrylic and found Taster's Choice Instant makes a great muddy color. It melted right into the liquid.

I'm so going to do this on my N-scale industrial area. You just got a new Sub.Thank's.

I'snt it neat that we can make Polluted cess pools on our Rail Roads; but, thank God we don't see this much anymore?

[@johnpandolfino8663]

How would all that junk have got there? Carrying a fridge across the tracks? I know in a later vid you put a grade xing but would a NY citizen drive there to dump stuff?

[@FosScaleModels]

I don't know how they get there, but I've seen that and just about anything you can imagine along tracks in New York :)

[@kevinb9327]

👍 Less is more.
