    Wow! You are the Bob Ross of model railroading! I never had the courage to paint my own backdrop, but you make it look so easy!

    You know,if that railroad engineer gig doesn’t work out,you have a helluva future as a model maker. You’re not an artist? Well that sure is some fine artistry you display.

    Good work DJ. The backdrop painting was very simple and effective. The blue you used was the right colour. So many backdrops I see are far too blue.

    That's fantastic. I spent last weekend trying to learn how to paint trees, and I just got frustrated with it. I am not an artist, and I really don't wish to become one :) But that simple technique with the sponge just made my day. Subscribed.

    "Go by what looks right". I completely agree. I tried doing things to exact scale and sometimes it just doesn't feel right to my eye, because in the real world we always look straight/up at the world, usually never down at it like we do on our model railroads. So if it doesn't look right, no matter how accurate, it just doesn't sit right in your mind. Great video, thanks for sharing!

    Nice video! Bridge came out well! I’ve also noticed UA-cam removing subscribers in batches recently. Really weird! I’ve had 10 or 15 subs disappear in 1 second. Sometimes they come back, sometimes they don’t. I’ve even had an irl friend removed from my subs by UA-cam which confirms my suspicions. I’m glad to hear it’s not just my channel haha, but I’m sorry it’s happening to you as well!

    great job ! you used a little round sponge for the trees on the background. You also could try to tear a big sponge ,for washing your car, into pieces and use that instead, that way you will get all the trees in different shapes and some sticky fingers as well. The same method could be used for making clouds. Keep up the fantastic job ! thanks for the video !

  • @KutWrite

    Nice start on that layout. Is this another module?
    You're demonstrating something I've noticed in the natural world. Reducing exactly to scale often doesn't look right. Going by eye is better, as that's how it'll be viewed.
    Every day for my last four years with CSX I crossed that bridge to work. There was a nice model shop on the right if you went straight after crossing. I gave them all my rule books and RR maps before I left town for good.
    The engines at the end are even nastier than I remember CSX power on that division. They look nicer the closer you get to Jacksonville. I wonder why.
