I love the story about your art. I always had difficulty expressing my love for this Hobby. You are awesome and I love your work. This street process is a easy way to do great work. Good choice
What I like to do, is to once you've put down the tape for painting the lines, is to go over it once more with the black. This helps to avoid the yellow creeping in under the tape, ruining the line.
Amazing video! I subbed. The thing about the glue lifting is a problem I solved by now using weights on whatever I'm glueing. It works really well. If weights aren't available I'll just use something heavy. This is probably one of the best videos I've seen on this topic though! I wish UA-cam would've recommended it earlier.
I build 1/25 scale model cars and I found that the finely ground cork sheets make the most realistic small scale streets, but it can be hard to find. You can also buy cork shelf paper that has adhesive on the back which makes attaching it to another surface much easier. I stick it to styrene plastic and the stuff stay stuck no problem. Never stuck it to foam so I don't know how well that works. I found this trick totally by accident when I was throwing out an old business post wall that was broken...
Nice! Thanks for sharing. I'll need to do this on a 2' square piece of foam. Do you have a link of a cement wall? I shoot Hot Wheel cars and want a scene that looks like a parking lot car get-together.
Have you done a video on foam cutters or a review on the one you use? I'm in the market for one and I like using that pink foam from Home Depot as well.
I have not done a review but I am planning on upgrading mine soon, mine is from HWFF.com but lots of people use a PROXXON, there are other brands though
Im so thankfull for your tutorials. There's one thing I'm afraid of: I bought some decoration stones that just look like broken streets and come in 3 different sizes. when using dirt or in my case stone, is it important to cover them with layers of color or clear coat even if the color's just right? Will it destroy the plastic of my figures if I use it as it is?
With prepainted products I wouldn’t worry about it but if YOU ad paint especially acrylic a sealer would be ideal like spray MATTE CLEAR or a misting of a glue and water mixture through a spray bottle
@@OilersWorkshop thanks for the fast reply. I was more worried about raw natural materials like stone. Would it scratch the plastic even if its just laying an it without moving and would a layer of coating prevent that?
Hi there. As usual another great video and teaching. BUT - Why haven't we gone on to now do a video on the attatched back wall and its graffiti. Thankyou heaps. Look 4ward to the brick part so I can add it to my road pce. Cheerz for now. Denise W.A.
Oh I’ve shared these techniques across many videos, I’m not in the habit of simply recreating my own work I usually come up With something new everytime for a build and then the applied skills become the videos

@@OilersWorkshoprewatching parts of the video now... it seems I missed the part about the weight! Apologies for that 😅
You are amazing sir. I’m definitely going to try this out. Thank you for everything you do. Love the Bob Ross reference!! Lol👊😁
Rock on!

Awesome! I’ve used the sticky back cork as well, it does NOT stick well to foam but you can add adhesive and make it work
Thank you.
You're welcome!
another awesome video, so many tips for us to try out. Thanks for sharing your skills!
Hey you’re welcome mr Lang don
Pretty cool.
Thanks watcher

Thank you!!!
thumbs up from Algeria bro
Wow! Thanks for stopping by Algeria
@@OilersWorkshop keep up the hard work 🔥
Nice! Thanks for sharing.

Just use some solid EPS foam and paint it according to my How To Paint Miniature Concrete Video, it’s a good place to start

Great video. I am doing on 1/87 scale. Do you recommend cork sheet or other suitable material for that scale?
You can also try Sand Paper, glue it down with epoxy or epoxy spray glue
@@OilersWorkshop that's a super clever idea.
De cuanto harías la anchura de las rayas de la carretera para un diorama de 1/8 ? Muchas gracias
Go measure stripes near you and divide by 8, then you know

@@Pharaoman I don’t think it would hurt the figure now
@@OilersWorkshop thank you very much.
I live in Okla. where one summer can make a silver car disappear on black top. I know I'm late to the party, but I just found you on utube
Neato
Working with blue foam?????? 😢
It’s great
