Been watching this masterpiece grow for well over two years now, incrediable. I drive over the road, this project has kept me glued for well over 280,000 miles. Bravo Jason!!
Thank you so much Mark!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍
Looks incredible! Great job brother!
Dear Jason, having observed your brick wall painting and mortar method several times now, must say I’m truly impressed with your results. Absolutely looks awesome.
The cobblestone road surface too. Love the simplicity of the aluminum foil ball texturing, plus the cutting into separate blocks.
Nevertheless, I humbly think you should or could look into another glueing method. Must say there, I’m not a great fan of liquid nails, or its equivalent, which is sold on this side of the pond. An MS-polymer caulk or glue has a much longer working timeframe and grips the foam to foam, either just as good, or even better. Also, it’s bond won’t deteriorate over time, as the liquid nails can, because it’s not completely foam safe.
That’s just for the glueing portion, overall am very impressed with the results and love your vids.
Cheerio
Checkout NightShift's UA-cam channel. He primarily does armour modeling but he uses a lot high density foam for uis dioramas. The foam he uses is a higher de duty than the typical pink or blue foam at the home centers. He's able to hot wire cut really thin sheets for use on his diorama structures.
He typically posts on Fridays. Out of Slovakia iirc.
He is an amazing artist! I absolutely love his work!!!
Always a pleasure to admire your creations...Superb!
Thank you so much Phil!!! I appreciate it!
That turned out fantastic. It was worth the time it took, and was probably more satisfying to lay it stone-by-stone instead of buying a sheet of stone. Nice work, as usual! - Paul
Thank you so very much Paul!!! It was very relaxing!
I suspect SVR is blasting in the background? Nice work Jason!
👍 Thank you so much buddy!!!
Incredible workmanship and creative vision.
Thank you so very much!!!
Total Awesomeness… 😮
Thank you so much!!! 👍
Great video. The coble stones are 1/8 by 3/8 inch?
Thank you so much Jim!!! Yes, maybe even a little smaller. The heat of the wire can make your measurements or cuts slightly smaller. It’s better to go smaller just so it looks the correct scale. Thanks for watching!!!
Nice work Jason. (Jensen) -do you have ancestors
from Denmark? :-) No mather what, greetings from Denmark.
Thank you so very much!!! No ancestors in Denmark. I love hearing that you are watching from Denmark! Thanks for watching and happy modeling!!!
@@JasonJensenTrains Its okay, my little brother is a Jensen and his father, so wondered if you had. (there is a lot of Jensens here in Denmark specialy) Im not modeling, but love to watch dioramas and gets ideas for giving my trucks patina (many see channel) Nice to see your work and how far you have taking it. Not a Dane, still love from here ;-)
First Thing we need to do, Get a Cup of Coffee. ;)
☕️👍 Thanks for watching buddy!!!
Amazing Jason. And I had Fish today, that suits. Greetings from Germany.
Thank you so much!!! Do they have fish tacos in Germany? I love fish tacos!
@@JasonJensenTrains No, never heard of it, but I love Tacos like Jim Rockford, if you know who it is. Sounds yummy
Just have tell you, when you first started, it looked pretty sketchy, lol. but around 10-20 minutes into the actual build (not sure what time on the video) I could see where you were going with this! Then by the 1/2 way, 3/4 way in, I could tell it would be a master piece. Definitely thumbs up and you now have a new subscriber! Well done, very impressed!-Ken
After watching your video, I was wondering. Where do you get your vehicles? I’m modeling the early 1930s to early 1940s. And I just had to ask where you get suck great looking time accurate cars and trucks?
Do you have a single page sketch of your layout? I'd really like to see it's overall size and dimensions, the distance of the layout from the walls, a rough track plan, and the general heights of the different levels above water levels (4", 6" 8", etc.?) I'm working on layout. I've watched many of your videos. They have been very helpful. I remember layout and track plans, but no general elevations other than the 4" in the "harbor" area.
Where did you get the Cars from? I've been looking for a few for my 1930s scene I'm trying to do...
Hey, Jason, Other UA-cam channels that I follow have a THANKS button below their video that we can use to send money. Can you add that feature?
Let's try again, the road looks fantastic, however I was surprised that you didn't sponge them to get more variation.
I also noted ,again, that your pilings have barnacles on them. My pilings are in river water. Could you someday show how to paint them so they look real?
Thanks again just love your work.
Hi first time I have found your channel excellent just subscribed and shared it,we have different names for things in England, may I ask what is Spakling, I am guessing it is a tile grout or similar many thanks Rog flair-rail
I do notice that you don't put expansion joints,or cracks in your concrete !!! You do such wonderful work on realistic!!!
Road
"The first thing we're going to do is..." Make sure you have your coffee within arm's reach!!
Any man holes or road grates ????
Thank you so much for watching!!! I have a video called “Adding roads with man hole covers and storm drains”.
What technique did you use for the back wall? The front wall has a flat, level base, so that was simple. But the back has a sloping base and level top.
Just a comment for the algorithm
Thank you Robert and thanks for watching!!!
I would have downloaded the files for a 3d printer and printed a cobble roller to do the cobbles with instead of cutting and placing several hundred of them.
Holy moly. High hopes here. I share the draw to buildings though.
Jason new to your channel great looking cobblestone road Did you do a video on a parking lot you made? I have a foam cutter coming soon want to make parking lots out of foam I saw that on a video and not sure who it was that did that someone told me you did
I thought you were going to xacto the stone on to the foam. But to cut them individually, cheers brother!
Groovy
Thank you!!!
Sorry this is a brick road not cobbles, cobbles are basically round stones but still nice work
Wow great video Jason . Thanks for share. And thanks for the JJT first kit is beautiful and arrives in no time wish you the best .
Cesar
Thank you so much Cesar!!! So glad you like the kit! 👍
To be honest, I thought you were just going to scribe the thin layer of styrofoam, but that looks way better. That little corner is coming along nicely. Cheers
Thank you so very much Davie!!! I appreciate it!
I love that road! Also the curve is great. I need to do a similar kind of section on my little layout and you inspired me to get to it!
Thank you so much and thank you for watching!!!
As always amazing. I’m definitely using the cobblestone idea in Alamosa. This winter. Still working outside in concrete! But as soon as snow flys, Alamosa.
Thank you so much!!! I would love to see you make concrete cobblestone! You may even just carve it in wet concrete. Just a thought. Wish I lived closer to you. It would be fun to do some outdoor modeling!
@@JasonJensenTrains love to come by someday… cobblestone I think will be foam exactly like yours. The rolled foil… brilliant. But testing concrete slab foundation. So far… omg. So great.
Awesome!
Thank you Randy!!!
Excellent 👏
Thank you Pieter!!!
All that work on the cobblestone road really paid off - it looks great! Thanks for sharing these techniques, and doing such a fantastic job demonstrating how to apply them!
Thank you so much for watching!!!
The level of detail you incorporate is amazing Jason. Individually laying the cobbles was great to watch.
Thank you so much John!!!
Thank you for those important words at 22:50, Jason. Fun and enjoyment is what it should be all about - always.
Your welcome and thank you so much for watching!!!
I like it so much, Jason!
Thank you so much Martin!!!
@@JasonJensenTrains u are welcome, Jason!
Wow, you do excellent work!
Jason, Great technique on the brickwork. It looks awesome.
The cobblestones are very fiddly, but, wow, they came up great, the road just fits in with your layout.
Your philosophy on how we enjoy yhis great hobby is just right on the money. We all use different techniques, materials, and have different outcomes in mind, but as long as we are having fun, that is what counts.
Cheers, and stay safe, Michael
Thank you so very much Michael!!! I really appreciate it!
Wow !!! Watching you assemble road is super. For some reason I love high speed video. I just don’t have that kind of patience. So I’ll rewatch and rewatch your videos. Great job
Thank you so very much, I really appreciate it!!!
Wow Jason this is really starting to look great. I just love learning new techniques and ideas. Looking forward to catching up on some videos.
Keep them coming and have fun, Chris
Thank you so much for following along on the journey! I really appreciate it Chris!!!
Jason, it looks Selliosian!
The color of the primer is Red Iron Oxide that typically has a high zinc content. Awesome video! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching John!!! I really appreciate it!
Your music is very nice!
Another great tutorial Jason. Detail of how to, supplies used, plus what is best for the viewer to use for relaxing or the quicker way . Reality steps away once again to delve into imagination oh one’s personal modeling.
Looking forward to viewing your lates venture into your train layout
Thank you so much Ed!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍
Great video Jason (as always) a very interesting fast way of painting brickwork I’ll have to have a go at this method for my retaining walls ,I assume this method will work in plastic card brickwork , your layout is coming in great 👍
Thank you so much Andy!!! Yes, it will work on plastic, just remember to use a dull coat before adding your mortar. Thanks for watching!!!
Jason, you are incredibly brilliant on how you come up with these ideas and techniques. When I think about my layout and what I can do to do something in way of roads a side walks well you come up with a video. The road is just beautiful and what I was wanting to do but could not come up with a game plan till you came up with this video. As always a fantastic video you came up with. Thank you again for your time your skills your knowledge that you share with us. Be safe and a wonderful weekend Jason!!!
Thank you so much for the kind words Johnny!!! I truly appreciate it! Happy modeling!!!
Nice job looking good
It's iron oxide.
Impressive! Great job! 👍👍👍
Thank you so much!!! 👍
Great idea Jason ... and I do have the same foam cutter!! New project for the wintertime.
Thanks for watching Donald!!! It’s a fun project!
Superb scenery!
Like always, watching you work makes me want to do work on my own layout. What I really wish someone would come up with is a small video camera mounted on a spider chassis .. remote controlled .. so you could walk around the layout for close ups.
Thank you so much Edward!!! I always enjoy seeing your work! Thanks for watching!
I was fascinated by the thumbnail regarding cobblestones. I was not disappointed. Great job as usual and a fun method to create cobblestone roads.
Thank you so much and thanks for watching!!!
Beautiful cobblestone roadbed. Nice work
Thank you so much Chris!!!
Fantastic.
Wow! Doing individual cobbles made an amazing road scene.
Thank you James!!!
I am a full believer of a foam cutter table, yes it is a lot more work, but you can create a "one of a kind" place on your layout. You show with basic things what the viewer can create step by step. Hobby time for a lot is hard to get, but as you pointed out , glue has to set, paint has to dry, and details added. Thanks for making all of us better modelers!
Thank you so much for your continued support Will!!! I always appreciate it! 👍
Very well done! I have the same foam cutter and will have to give it a try.
Thank you so much Dan!!! It’s a fun project!
As usual, wonderful work! It so inspiring, Jason!
Thank you so much Patrick!!!
Another great work! Fantastic Jason!!
Thank you so much Luis!!!
Very nice looking road. Where did you acquire your vehicles? Those look sharp.
Thank you so much Scott!!! Vehicles are from classic Metal Works.
@@JasonJensenTrains Thank you. Your videos are really a treat to watch. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.
What an amazing result, I really enjoyed watching the fantastic technique, thanks Jason, now that winter is upon us I can get back to my layout. 👍
Looks like another great inspiration to get me back into my layout. Thank you Jason!!!❤️❤️❤️👌
Enjoy watching ALL the progress but I am particularly entertained when you create scenes using raw materials. Great result on this one.
I love your videos Jason,you have incredible talent and are so enthusiastic. I have zero interest in trains but I get so inspired by your modelling😀. Bravo!!😊
The dedication to detail and joy for this hobby shows in the work you do!
Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate it!
Your closing comments are so true! Great work!
Amazing creations!!!
Thank you so much! And thank you for watching!!!
Another masterpiece!
Thank you so much Keith!!!
This turned out really nicely Jason. Seeing some greenery really will add alot of life to your town. It really adds alot.
