[tbjonathansommer]

Love the series it has helped me a ton with my HO layout. Keep making videos!

[MrMomobot]

NO!!!!!! NOT MY CAT!!!!!!! LOL :D

[MrMomobot]

Dude you are cool! i think i'll subb! So did You say that your layout is made of foamboard?

[ddrusa]

your making me want to finish my ho train lay out

[jmk3438]

you'll save money buy purchasing durable paper towels for the plaster wrap. Soak them in the woodland scenics plaster mix.

Thanks for many great hours infront of the pc. Have learned a lot from whatching your videos.

Thanks from Sweden.

If it's modular for moving, why haven't you got the joints running through the scenery and joints on the trackwork at the edge of the modules? when you pull the baseboards away from each other, the track will be damaged + the scenery?

[microbrainbrothers]

the plaster cloth is mod rock

[billrice15]

how would you get rid of the wrinkles and stretch mark looking parts on there?

With the Paper mashea You did a really nice job...on my friends layout (which someone put the Paper mashea on but did nothing else pretty much) The dude who did the paper machea fucked the whole thing so now I am "Patching" it up :P I used to work with that stuff all the time and I say you did a wonderful job ;-D

[AlfaBoi124]

YOu might want to consider doing a scenery segment on terrain (Light terrain) with the foam board instead of plaster cloth and newspaper

[commanderwalker13]

not complaing at all because nice video and layout. but if you had extra foam board you could cut it out and glue and shape alot easier but if your now custom to doing it fast go ahead just givin out ideas

nice work

James: I would mention to your viewers that the plaster cloth has a front and back. You want to lay it with the bumpy side up and smooth side down. Great Video.

[Rdrake1413]

Wow James really looking good

[MrkmTrainFAN]

Wow, where'd the scenery come from??? Great job, looks like your making some quick progress. How did you mount the back drop?

[mopacman511]

Wow that looks great! Also where did you get the backdrop you have in the beginning of the video?

[jlwii2000]

@mopacman511 realistic backgrounds is the name of the company. You'll have to google it since I can't put web addresses in here.

[mopacman511]

@jlwii2000 ok thanks

[trainkid16]

At first I was skeptical about your layout plan. Now that I see your scenery, I'm really starting to like it!

[bucksnorthern]

Wow, looking awesome! Love this video series!

[byates59]

Great job! Your layout is really coming along! Thanks for sharing! Bill

You like to live dangerously! I would have taped over all the track in that area, and definitely wouldn't have those nice box cars sitting 1 foot away. Plaster is messy and finds it's way into/onto everything.

I like the first scene with the culvert. The river scene, I would add more layers of water. Give it depth. The trees need to not be little soldiers lined up on the river bank. You need more variety (height, spacing, color, etc) and that would tie the scene in. Keep up the good work.

Layout is starting to take shape! I've seen all your how-tos up to date I just have to stop and say how much I appreciate you taking the time to do this. I'm in the very early stages of getting a layout started and have learned a ton of stuff through your time and effort. Hopefully before to long I'll post something up on my own. Currently clearing the space to get it started...again, thanks so much

[TMandN]

An artist comes up with the end result only by trying new things, and yours is no exception! Great work,keep it up!

[aocruiser]

Man your doing a great job!! I like the how to and the river! Its starting to come to life!! :D

[bohemianh]

looks really good, like the river bed, I thnk a thicker layer of wter would give more depth. Your bridge looks real!

[knightbob81]

Great how to! I used white styrofoam for my mountains.
