Wow this is amazingly detailed!

Really nice process ! I am currently hand laying 72 inches of O scale code 148 track. I am using Testor Wood and Metal glue with number 0 truss screws to secure the rails to the ties that I cut. The finished track is in sections. Your layout looks great !

Thankyou, for this tip. It looks quicker than the way I've been doing it.

You should look into safety wire pliers. They could help speed up making trees. We use them working on planes. I use them on 28mm scale wargames. There's a lot of cross over in our hobbies.

royal navy version??? 🤮

I really like your mantra... Just have fun! I have been working hard on an O-scale layout to be based in the Reno, NV area, but have spent a lot time omitting cool details. Why? They weren't prototypical to the SP or my time period. It has become very restrictive... our hobby is supposed to be about having fun!!! Even John Allen had a dinosaur on his layout!

All it took for me to subscribe is . On30 Swamp Logging Railroad. That sounds extremely interesting. Thanks Fren.

Have you tried using hair spray none scented for putting the leafs on

How does your trees smell using parley; does it give them a forest aroma? How can we go about modeling the aroma aspect the scenery?

Perfect 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Joseph, Can I ask what part of Iowa do you live? And, would you care for a visit? I live in Florida but I have family I'm going to visit who live in Omaha. I would really love to meet you and visit the swap! I think it's just Awesome!

Love the use of parsley flakes! I will definitely try that!

For my HO trestle I'm using kindling from a round of firewood - looks great!

You could just empty the vacuum and dump the static grass in there from the vacuum

Nice trees. Really like the Spanish Moss.

Enjoyed the series, trees look awesome

🍻

Honestly, I'm with you with blending the blue on to the print but not painting over the print. For me to use a photo realistic background I do not see painting it over as you show here. The way it looks at the end is like if you have painted the whole thing, not as a realistic as the photo.

It looks like you're using 11"X17" paper for the images, correct? Thanks and great work!

Google Street view images can be a valuable source for this type of work. However, I have found you need to be careful to ensure the orientation of the photo aligns with the most likely viewing angle of the layout.

You're doing a great job. It's all about layers...wish I'd learned that 40 years ago.😂

Looks fantastic!!!

I love your swamp themed project! It's very nostalgic to me.

Bravo

Try clamping the fiber to a flat board. Then comb it with a toothbrush while giving it a light mist of Aqua-net hairspray. When it looks good, let it dry, then glue it to the branch.

This has been fun to watch. I too, experimented with Boomer's techniques. I'm very interested in seeing how these turn out. Thanks for the series.

Just awesome, the moss looks so good. Whats the name of the song in your intro??

These scraggly looking trees are perfect for the bayou. Nothing is straight or perfect in the swamp!

Very cool, getting some recognition! Well deserved. 🎉❤

Just got my notice that my On30 mag just shipped. Congrats on the feature

Boomer diorama is masterpiece, Ive been following him since his glover rd.. How did you resize the photo to make it ho scale worthy?? Thanks!

I'm new here and the On30 is great! What kind of track is used?

What is the curve radius?

I have learned a lot of methods to make model trees in my life (I am 50). I didn' t think to learn something new. The fiber paste looks very interesting.

Great job.Look forward to part 3. I too watch Boomer. But i model in On30

Hi Joseph - Great series! And here's the links you mentioned: Luke Towan - Boulder Creek RR www.youtube.com/@LukeTowan Boomer Diorama | River Railroad www.youtube.com/@boomerdioramas Like Ken Patterson likes to say: This is the best hobby in the world! Ghost of the SP

A friend bought one of these after he got out of the Navy it had been shot in one motor. He turned it into a houseboat and lived in it in Salem Oregon for a few years. He later took it to New Port over the Willamette Falls during a flood event. When he got it to New Port he used it as a dive boat while he scubed hulls. He later sold it to a local dive shop.

"Merci mon ami..." Ya done good! 😊

Matte Medium is my one go - to adhesive for almost all things model railroad. Thanks for sharing. Cheers.

It’s a good thing you got a hold of those under frames 2 years ago because I can’t find them for sale anywhere including EBay. They look like they’re great for scratch builders.

ありがとうございます！参考になりました。

Looks fantastic and has a TON of character. A lot of these surplus LCMs ended up in civilian service from LA harbor to remote islands in the Pacific and elsewhere. Some were converted into push tugs, workboats and even Navy Seal dive boats.

Terrific tutorial and what an absolutely perfect skeeter logo!

Goog to see your back. We missed ya’all

Good to see you back! Nice techniques!

Great show. It's good to see you again on You Tube.

Outstanding. Thanks.
