    I made a mountain using your technic for my Christmas village. I do not consider myself particularly crafty but your explanation made the project easy. Since it is a winter scene I am not going to paint it, but sprinkle it with artificial snow flakes. It is now in the process of drying and I see that I need to put a few more tissues here and there but other than that it came out great. I did have some issues with the tissue tearing but it actually worked to make it more like little rocks. Thanks you so much for doing this. It is so much more realistic than styrofoam. I love the details that come out.

    I like the white dry-brush effect so much, that when I built an outdoor fish pond out of real, unpainted rocks, I dry-brushed them very lightly, and the result was amazing! Since then, I dry-brush any rock or retaining wall I I’ve ever built. I just seems to make textures pop.

  • @artemissailing485
    @artemissailing485 2 роки тому +1

    Great tutorial. I followed it for the coloring of the rocks and it worked out very well! I have created a diorama (2m x 50cm) which combines a mainline in H0 and a narrow gauge (H0e) line which serves a mine. At the mine I created a rockface around the entrance to the mine (with track in it). Diorama is open on the backside to see the interior of the mine too. Setting is is Epoche I (appr. 1910) with KPEV trains. I used styrofoam for the base of the rockface and created the rocks by applying egalisation paste (what you use to fill cracks in interior walls). I sculpted rocks into this with a knife. Then I followed the painting technique as in this video. Super result! Thanks! If you want pictures, let me know your email address.

    I've watched many videos of making hills and mountains this is the lightest fastest clean way to make them. I's also very inexpensive to do that's the best part as long as we can get toilet paper *lol* This is the system I have decided to use on my layout. This like most of your other videos is really great I like the simplicity of the systems you use makes modeling much easier with fewer tools and co0mponents.

    I'm thinking of doing it your way vs. woodland scenics way (which I have used before and didn't like the results it came out looking to spotty and rough for a Canadian rocky scene). Maybe I will use woodland scenics again way first and if I don't like results I will use your technique. Thanks for the advice. The white emulates weathered rock in the sun (typically granite) or frost bitten slate, if it is wintertime. That is why people say it isn't natural...but it is if you apply it lightly to certain areas like you did it works amazing.
