I do not often make a comment but i do watch all the videos with interest as your modelling is really superb, i think we all would like to see the builds in there entirety because your calm manner and delivery are a pleasure to watch, regards.Colin.
That simple level crossing scene looks fantastic. For some reason, evn if Ernie was standing on a beach in the Carribean, he'd look like a signalman, just on holiday. He's perfect !! 😁👍👌
Good Morning Paul. the embankments are fabulous and so much depth and the trees really do set the scene...the lady with the muscles i would not like to argue with her. but still still great details.........excellent..........all the best Tony
You were the early bird this morning Tony, thanks so much for all the kind words. Of course, if they hadn’t have been I’d have set Miss Universe on you. 😂 Paul
Great work Paul! The level crossing and cottages are excellent; the rock work and overall scenery is quite stunning! That bridge is certainly going to look impressive spanning a canal scene. I'm originally from Lymm, Cheshire, which is bisected by the Bridgewater Canal, and when you showed your diorama with it's murky green water and weed-ridden tow path, it brought back fond memories! (I had the Manchester Ship Canal just a few hundred yards to the north, but that's another story.) I really enjoy your presentations and modelling techniques. Best wishes, Alan in British Columbia.
I really do like your updates. The new crossing does look great. The weathering on the wood looks fantastic. Great job!! Thanks for sharing and stay safe. Cheers- Larry.
I love the level crossing Paul i 've been using the plastic wood stuff and have never been happy with it that's gonna change now thanks Paul. nice layout.
Great update Paul the scenery is looking fantastic 👍 if you decide to do a video on building the shops then I for one would really enjoy watching that my friend 👍
Brilliant work, Paul. Stunning scenes and creations, as always. Congrats on 5K subs- well-deserved. As far as what to put in your videos, the answer is in you. OF course I and many others love seeing your process. You work so well and explain it so well and thoroughly in such a great way it is a joy to watch. Yet, it also adds time to work. We all work slower to camera than live, so you have to decide how much pleases you and pleasing your viewers. I love the process, but am also happy seeing the end results and hearing a summary instead. You're one of the best out there- but keep yourself in your groove, not ours.
You must be very happy with the insulation, great move and just think of the countless hours you can spend there away from sheceho must be obeyed🤣 I must send you a couple of my trees . The bridge looks fantastic, I just received a Cricut Maker for my birthday along with tools and materials. I have all kind of ideas that I can cut out,, it’s endless. The stone building looks great and makes for a nice diorama with the road winding away. I also like your snapshots where the train passes between the trees bringing a sense of realism to your layout Regards
Thanks Charlie, the room is much more comfortable now in the winter months so it’s certainly a nice getaway location. I’ll look forward to some of your creations from the cutter, you’re ever the inventor and creator. Paul
Greetings Antrim ☘ stunning work on the level crossing Paul 😍 you are becoming the king of the coffee stirrer 😉 The branch line cutting is exceptional 🤩 as always I look forward to seeing your weathering techniques on those rock faces. Great video, jam packed full of delicious details 😎 Can't wait for the next one 😉 Very best wishes from County Wicklow ☘
Excellent as always Paul, especially like how you fitted the Black Stone house into the hill and the branchline cutting is fabulous. Regards, David. P.S. I've sent a little private joke to Fred through the comments, you'll get a copy.
Hi Paul, great little update and look forward to some of the plans. Would love a Wills kit video as I have just purchased one and would love to see the master build to get some inspiration for it. Stay well and all the best, Chris
Hi Paul - A very enjoyable video update - the layout is looking Fabulous 😉- love the new look on the railway crossing 👍 very inspirational. Keep safe and all the best Gazza
You could place a small mirror on the wall behind your stone cottage which would allow you to see the rear gardens and some trees and bushes at either end of the mirror would disguise the edges. Great update and the bridge idea sounds good. If possible, could you give some details about the die cutter. Thanks
That’s not a bad idea Andy regarding the mirror, I must give that a test to see how it would look. As to the cutter, I believe it’s similar or the same as the one bought by Everard Junction. Paul
Hi paul another great video mate I really enjoyed it was every interesting your layout is looking great mate stay safe and well mate goodbye for now clive
Thank you for your reply Paul, yes space is a problem for most of us. I made the bays quite small for the same reason but it took away the flat front look. I scratch built a pub based on my local from there material packs, if you keep the dimensions of the building within the size of there preformed sheet sizes it is not a problem. you can buy windows and doors from Wills or other manufactures.
Hi Paul- as always entertaining and informative. The rock face is really lifelike and funnily I have been making trees using the seafoam method and I am quite pleased with the outcome. I also had a go using wire for bigger trees and not too bad results . Keep Safe......Cheers Kev
the wills kits make very nice models when finish just take your time with them they can be adopted to make a model that fits into your model railway I have made lots of then in the past
Nice update Paul. Love the cutting with all the trees, looks very realistic. That bridge from Paul is superb isnt it. I would not say no to getting a video series of the shop build. All the best Alex
hello paul sorry for the late comment just caught up with your video thanks for sharing your fabulous work really enjoyed your video great detail my friend as always keep safe all the best al 👍😁👌👏👏👏😊
Great update mate, really enjoyed that! The level crossing looks better with the wooden planks and your cutting scenery is really looking good. Love the name of Carraig Wills and look forward to the village growing. As you know I have been concentrating on Kingsbridge village this winter and I also built the Wills semi cottage kit, a really good kit to build but the Craftsman range is not easy for a beginner so a tutorial video would be well received I think. Cheers Steve
Liked the video you have a lot going On! Thank you for the how to on the yrees! Awesome job! It is something to use on my rail way. I cannot wait to see the next video. Stay safe and be well. Thank you from New Mexico USA. Tony M
Really good update Paul, scenics look really good and the level crossing really is excellent. I’d really like to see you do the kit build, although I model in N gauge it’s really good to see the way you go about things. That bridge looks superb, I really like a bridge, I recently scratch built a bridge that I’m really proud of! I look forward to that going in on your layout Paul. Anyway, cheers for now, John
Hi Paul! The layout is looking great! Love the new Level Crossing - the wood planking is spot on. I agree, Ernie is perfect for that scene! Sorry that it's been a while since I caught up on Galgorm Hall - just been crazy busy. Looking forward to the development of that village scene. Hope all is well on your side of the pond. Best, John
I would be interested in watching you completing one of the wills kits, I have two of them and when I opened them up and saw just pieces of plastic sheets it put me off doing them, so it will be interesting to see how you complete them and then maybe I will have a go myself. Thanks, Mel
Hi just discovered your channel, really enjoyed the video and what a great layout. Always good to compare ideas as on with a layout of my own. Cheers Gary
Love watching your building video's Paul, so i'm up for any construction on the layout being recorded ;). That bridge you got looks really good, can't wait too see how you do the canal. Plenty of great videos ahead by the sounds of it. Congrats on getting over 5k subs Paul ;), hope it starts too climb a lot faster.
Thanks so much Aodhan, delighted to have reached that milestone of 5k, quite unreal in fact but it’s all down to guys like you showing me your support, it really is valued. Paul
Brilliant! I love the way you’ve done the railway cutting. In fact, I love the high standard you have achieved everywhere! Enjoyed the video, thank you.
Really enjoyed this chum, a good update and footage. I personally would love a concise video on the Wills kit. would be helpful. cheers Paul at Sandling Junction
it would be super helpfull for a video on building the wills kit, i have made the cottages and currently making the water mill and struggling with the plastic sheets as i have mostly only succeeded in cutting my hands
I love your work Paul. Your layout is becoming so nice with all those little scenes developing gradually and looking every bit as lovely as one would expect! Joachim
Hi Paul I made those shops for my layout but I changed the flat front shop windows for bay windows made from Evergreen plastic parts they look much better, just saying !
Thanks Terry, it’s the beauty of these kits making small changes like what you’ve done. Space wise I don’t think I have it at the front to add a bay but I was considering converting it to a pub instead of the shop. Paul
I smiled when you said the woman hanging out the washing was a bit "buffed" I know a few women in a village in Donegal who are just like that lol ( still catching up with your video list, so a bit behind most of your subscribers)
@@GalgormHall not wasted time at all, lots of useful tips and ideas that can be translated into both my 15mm scale garden railway and new 4mm layout :-)
A great video and therapeutic guidance with good modelling skills, thank you for sharing. Is there a general shot of your loft layout to be seen anywhere please?
Thank you DH. If you’re on Facebook you can see progress photos on my dedicated page. It’s by no means finished though so expect a lot of bare wood and track in places. 😆 Paul
Thanks Julian. I should have put the name up on screen. It’s Carigwills, that’ll be my accent pronouncing it wrong in the video. 😆 As to the river, I hadn’t given it any thought but it’s not a bad idea. Paul
Great video Paul, good to see the progress. Yes please I would love to see how you do the wills kits. But I have a complaint. Many years ago at the start of my working life I was a freight guard at a depot called Guide Bridge on the Woodhead line between Manchester and Sheffield. Now contrary to opinion we didn't just sit in the van drinking tea, but had a serious job assisting with the braking of the train on gradients. So please stop the dreadful and dangerous practice of running loose coupled freight trains like the one in the video without a brake van. Thank you. Obviously only joking. But I was a freight guard. Looking forward to the next video, whatever it maybe.
Hi Tony, thanks for the comments. You’re right on the train lacking a brake van and it really should have one but believe it or not I just don’t possess one at the minute. It will get rectified in time though. 😉 Paul
Hi, I have just spent a wintry afternoon watching some of your scratch building and I have a couple of questions if you wouldn't mind answering please. I am living in Canada so mostly HO scale material here, but I saw you using some Slaters brick and stone sheets, I was wondering are these easy to cut, shape, bend, paint etc. I see there available in 00 scale so I may order some. Also when you are using card stock for some of your builds, is this just cardboard or is it foamboard? I'm attempting to build the Goods Shed that is in Mullingar, my home town and I love following along with your tips. Is there a video where you used the Slaters slate sheets and painted them? Cheers Eamonn
Hi Eamonn, thank you for choosing to watch those videos instead of doing some modelling!! 😆. The Slaters sheets are approximately 0.5mm thick so cut very easily with a couple of passes of a craft blade. I use enamel paints for most of my brickwork and have never had any issues with it adhering to the plastic. If using acrylic however it may be necessary to prime the plastic prior to painting. The card stock is primarily Daler board, a 1.5mm heavy cars that is used by picture framers for mounting artwork, etc and can usually be bought in art supply shops although if you can get foam board more readily it will do the job just as well. Episodes 8 and 9 of the shop build will also give you further information on producing the tiled roof from layering up the slaters sheet to the final painting stages. Hope that’s of help and if you need anything more just ask. Paul
😆 I’m sorry John. I’ve been working on two separate projects for other people which have now concluded. I’m hoping to start work on a couple of tutorial videos soon building a Wills kit if I could ever get ahead with real life work to free up some time. Paul
The channel is Gable End. I’ve added a link for you as it’s pretty hard to find with a normal search. Currently lacking content but I do believe he is working on stuff for it. ua-cam.com/users/GableEnd Paul

Kind of you to say so Barra. Paul

Thank you. Dart Castings produced a great figure in Ernie. 😆 Paul
@@GalgormHall They really did.😁 Funny how a couple of £s spent on an Ernie can sometimes have just as much effect on a scene as a £250 loco.😁

Thanks Mark, big clumsy hands was at it again. 😂 Paul
I love the level crossing Paul i 've been using the plastic wood stuff and have never been happy with it that's gonna change now thanks Paul. nice layout.
Thanks Tony. Just follow the same process of painting I used on the fence but with browns and a little black. Good luck with the project. Paul
the smaller details sure do help a scene pop
Thanks so much Sparky. Paul.
Great stuff Paul, you could add a door or window to show a basement in the cottages, then the steps wouldn't look out of place Andy
Cheers Andy, I had considered a basement door but not until after I’d assembled the build! 😆 Paul
Great update Paul the scenery is looking fantastic 👍 if you decide to do a video on building the shops then I for one would really enjoy watching that my friend 👍

@@GalgormHall Oh that's great info and yes Foamboard easy to get. Thanks and keep up the great videos.
Paul any idea of when your next video will be out , suffering withdrawal symptoms here with nothing to watch
😆 I’m sorry John. I’ve been working on two separate projects for other people which have now concluded. I’m hoping to start work on a couple of tutorial videos soon building a Wills kit if I could ever get ahead with real life work to free up some time. Paul
Thank you Paul , I don't wish to hurry , just get your finger out Ha ha

Paul, Are the loco's and rolling stock you have in this video NIR stock?
Not in this one Eamonn. A Class 22 and 40 were the runners. Paul
What is the channel of the chap who made the bridge with a die-cutter?
The channel is Gable End. I’ve added a link for you as it’s pretty hard to find with a normal search. Currently lacking content but I do believe he is working on stuff for it.
