    Wow! You even used the correct road markings, from the 1:1 guidance manual! As a retired Highway Engineer I see that most modellers just do what they think looks right and often isn't.
    As a PS the coloured lines and symbols on UK roads are mainly laid down with a 5 to 10 mm thick plastic material, hence they can last longer than straight paints used in other countries.
    I look forward to your next update on Chandwell.

    I have, as promised, watched it again, and all I can say is that if Chandwell doesn't end up in an art gallery it should. Your layout is beyond hobby, beyond craft - this is a piece of art in so many ways, It is social comment, it is skilled draftsmanship, and artistic clever problem solving. You sir are a da Vinci in the making.

    Michael this is great, I’m getting to the point I need to start thinking about road surfaces on my layout so this upload is perfect timing!
    I scratchbuilt a 1930s style shopping parade last week, when I did I test print to look at the hipped roof I scaled the shapes down by half so it would all fit onto one A4 piece of light card. As I’m modelling OO gauge this showed me the size the building would be in N gauge - I was really surprised! It was a lot smaller than I imagined and made me appreciate even more how skilled your work is. I don’t even think I could attempt things like complex window frames on N scale, or at least not at the moment. You’re a true craftsman. Thanks Michael and best for now 👍🏼

    • @Chandwell
      @Chandwell  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you. In reverse, I was shocked by the size of a 3mm building when I made one with Liam. 00 is bigger again. I think it’s because each dimension (width and height) doubles therefore the volume of a 00 building is 8 times bigger, I think. Regardless, it is a surprising difference when your used to one rather than the other.

    Finally, someone who has faithfully reproduced the very unique style of UK road markings. I feel road markings often let down what can be very impressive scenes but unsurprisingly you've nailed it. And my OCD was triggering until you noticed you'd not left the space on the road entry markings adjacent to the centre line! 👍

    Well, fascinating as your tutorials are, the Luddite in me eschews all contact with modern technology. But for anyone at ease with computers this is obviously the way forward. Being a retired Art teacher helps me to take a far more laissez faire approach to scenic features particularly when I model a more distant age (1930s/40s on my North Cornwall layout for example). But I absolutely admire the results you achieve, and Chandwell is (a) believable and (b) the sort of place I would quite happily live in real life!

    • @Chandwell
      @Chandwell  2 роки тому

      There's nothing wrong with being a Luddite! I think that this is what makes our hobby so special. There are many way to achieve beautiful layouts, and so much scope to explore what interests and fascinates us. I'd love to have an artistic flair that didn't need technology to bring out, but then modern technology is just an evolution, I suppose. Paint and brushes are "technology" in their own right. I am sure my children will be doing things that I will have no idea about in twenty years! Thank you for your kind words about Chandwell the town... are you SURE you would live there though? It's a bit grim! :)

I noticed you use a board to stand your buildings on /pavement, could I ask what size is the thickness of this and is it card or hardboard, I like to get a kerb side drop to my roads.

      Hello! Thank you for watching. I usually stand my buildings on 1mm card. I sometimes use 0.5mm or a 1.5mm base made from 1mm and 0.5mm for a bit of variation. If I’m modelling on a hill (which I usually am), I use multiple layers of 0.5mm card rather than one layer of 1mm as it bends to the contours better if you build it up.

    I’m getting to the point on my layout where I want to start putting in roads so I’ve rewatched this video a few dozen times :)
    One question I had was how did you translate the actual space on your layout to Inkscape? I have my roads drawn out on my layout and they have some subtle curves in them. Is it just careful measuring or did you use some other technique?
    Because my layout is small, I took an aerial photo of it and resized it to n gauge scale in Inkscape so I have actual forms I can just overlay. But on a larger layout this might be unwieldy so I’m looking for tips on getting “real world” road dimensions into Inkscape.

    • @Chandwell
      @Chandwell  2 роки тому

      I don't think I have any tips there. I have used the photo method before, but on a larger layout I think I would just use careful measurements and by using cheaply-printed mock-ups, I would adjust until I had it about right.

      Hi Derek. I never try to print borderless so I don’t know. But I always export to PDF and print from there, simply because I like to keep copies of everything I print.

      Not sure what you mean Derek… what do you mean by “getting videos”? There is a members video every Sunday. If you don’t receive notifications from UA-cam, you can check your notification settings. All my videos are on my channel page. Members-only vidoes are on the Membership list here : www.youtube.com/@Chandwell/membership Unfortunately I have no control over how and when UA-cam sends notifications.

      The UA-cam iPad app does not give access to the Community section of channels. It is very frustrating. You can access it on an iPad by using Safari and going to UA-cam that way.

    Nice but you move far to quickly from one stage to the other.

      It's a really tricky balancing act; the video needs to be useful to people who already are experts in Inkscape whilst being helpful to those completely new to it. I tried to go at a pace where with the use of pause and rewind, newbies could still learn. There's a huge wealth of Inkscape training material out there already, so I didn't think it worth reinventing the wheel - this video took about 30 hours of effort as it was.
