Building, Painting & Weathering the Roundhouse

Hi! I´m presenting some of my painting and weathering techniques for brick wall buildings. The subject is a 6-port roundhouse with matching water tower. The roundhouse is then integrated into a Locomotive yard with turntable and related track works.

Spouse: „Darling, have you seen my old home Jeans?” Model railway worker: “No” 😁 Great good tutorial. 👍🏻

[@billthomas8205]

Thank you so much for your intelligent, creative & fun videos. My wife & I watch them together, & we have invented the Marklin Drinking Game: every time you say "PVA glue" we have another drink. (And yes, we have actually built a railway!)

[@rogerhuber3133]

This roundhouse is a fantastic kit. I built one several years ago. The fit of all parts was the best I've ever seen. Thanks for all the great weathering and painting instructions. A beautiful module.

[@thomasmurphy7719]

I have been in this hobby for 55 years ~ yet I always learn something new while watching your videos.

[@marklinofsweden]

Hi Thomas! That’s great. I learn something new for my hobby everyday too. That’s what keeps me going.

[@hadynmcloughlin4661]

New to the train hobby and just starting with first plastic kit - love the simple to follow paint techniques thanks for sharing your tips. New sub today

[@klausleppien9901]

Einfach nur cool, mit welch einfachen Tipps man tolle Erfolge erzielen kann.

[@tylerpaul650]

I have been searching for a video like this for quite a while, many many thx sir!!

[@andersgullberg]

Very nice work!

[@larrydee8859]

Beautiful Work! The morter between the bricks. The servo operation of the doors. The soldering of the stainless steel track... Really much needed information! Thanks again, so much, MarklinofSweeden!

[@davidjohnfarrell4579]

I love the way your locomotives will crawl along without any jerky movements

[@NiinaSKlove]

Love all the details, - it’s so satisfying to watch! 🤓

[@Leadweight2]

Still surprises me how many new tips you present in every new video. Awesome video once again!

[@georgetrevorrowjr6194]

Very well done thank you for sharing!!!

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

Fantastic job! your weathering is very subtle but it makes a huge difference!

[@marka87]

Very nice work - the roundhouse looks great

[@bossecarlberg]

Tack för en väldigt fin video och speciellt för det speciella flussmedlet.

[@marklinofsweden]

Tack! Ja! Det flussmedlet har sparat mig många grå hår..

[@tomatoes3]

Brilliant video and tutorial, thank you.

[@TheCreativeModellerHO]

Great video 👌👍😃😲

[@DanielGrau2010]

Excelent.

[@keithholland4443]

Absolutely AMAZING. I watch every video I can of yours.

[@Fahrbetrieb]

In the Future you will be one of my main source on how to do it. Many thanks for your Videos and keep on doing what you do. Best regards Nils

[@smokencoffee7680]

I am enjoying your videos, thanks for posting.

[@martinpattison1567]

A very detailed Roundhouse and a nice diorama. I am also building a 6 bay roundhouse that is being 3D printed for me. The creator made a mistake on the front walls and doors, he did not allow for the tracks. I think he is redrawing them now, but after seeing this video I saw the doors are shaped to go over the track. I also want to open and close the doors. I will use servos with control via an Arduino board with an Uno 3. I think I will try and cut the door and see if that is ok or not. Many thanks. Martin (Thailand)

[@johnsimpson99]

You are truly an artist. Not sure I'll ever do any of this stuff but love watching you work.

[@ewoodrailway]

Stunningly lifelike, great video

[@qamarabbasofficialchannel1713]

Wow nice video

[@qtstar9479]

Wow!!! You’re amazing! Just here to watch you do your thang.👍❤️🔥

[@lorriedmussett4692]

I knew i wasn't the only viewer who just loves to watch and enjoy everything on this KZbin channel m

[@mulld]

You are a huge inspiration when I'm working on my layout. I watch your videos and have them playing in the background while I work and it motivates me to take that extra step to get something done or make.it look that much more realistic.

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you! Good to hear you like the videos! More are coming! 👍😊

[@ploughlin2973]

Great video!

[@fernandogagliardo6618]

Even I don't like Marklin system...but outstanding work!

[@foxterrier5910]

Very nice! Great job 😉👍🏻

[@hansfehlow9657]

I am always impressed with your weathering methods. Great video thank you.

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you! 👍

[@eternalelo]

1000x thx Martin!!!!!!!

[@伊鈴屋ヒミコ]

Nice to meet you. Sorry for the clumsy English. It was very useful for dirtying the brick station we are making now. Thank you very much.

[@lokschilderinfo9981]

Thank you for your very practical recommendations. I will be happy to apply them. Many greetings from Southern Germany.

[@mannbrand]

Excellent work Martin! I have the same water tower, I have not installed it yet. I loved the contacts of the lights, very practical ... Cheers

[@doncarlton4858]

Great modeling work! I like your weathering!

[@davidj.murphy5588]

The 6-stall roundhouse model resembles a similar one at Greenfield Village/Henry Ford Museum in Dearborn, MI, except their turntable is 'hand-powered' and they often get children to help turn it. I also have 2 of the 3-stall Kibri kits and plan to use your tips on finishing them. Thank you for the instructions. Great work!

[@haydenbritt1237]

Dude, you look like one of my Bible college professors, that’s crazy man! Thanks for the tutorial! 😂

[@strikeeaglemodels1588]

Very realistic diorama 😍

[@riccardomattioli3495]

Very Good work

[@michaelwhiles5282]

Superb !

[@fionamikefabiyanic162]

I like it very much !!!

[@stuarthalnon9724]

I'm totally new to all of this. I got a love of it from my grandfather and an uncle, and now in covid lockdown I'm learning loads and loving it!

[@matslarsson88]

Snygg skjorta!

[@flyingcircus1263]

....simply thank you for your great videos! It's so simply because it's oldschool. I like oldschool!!!!!!!!! lovely great's from germany Jörg

[@johnkelley9877]

Absolutely fantastic looking diorama! The whole piece is very realistic looking and the instructions were very clear and precise. Thanks for sharing this.

[@Evil_107]

Another amazing tutorial, love your videos! So informative.

[@sparky107107]

wow a nice and simple kit. bit of paint and weathering. came out really nicely. adding the brick work inside was a great touch. fabulous finished scene

[@E_73]

Hi Martin! You know I am a big fan of your work! Thank you for this video. I like your friendly presentation! 😊😊😊😊

[@CreativeRails]

Beautiful work as usual!

[@roundhousetrainspotting]

Very nice

[@malcolm1933]

Perfect as usual wish I had the patience for that quality

[@eisenschweinchen5354]

Du hast tolle sachen, gratuliere!

[@SmR8008]

That looks fantastic. The kit looks great too😊😊

[@hakanabrahamson8257]

Amazing pace into the small world of trains. / Så härligt att höra din entusiastiska ton, och samtidigt ta del av din stora kunskap. Hälsningar från Märklinentusiast sedan 1955.

[@gvet47]

The quality of that kit is really amazing to snap together and fit so well. I live in a town in the states that had one of the largest roundhouses West of the Missouri River. I can tell you the floor and service pits were a accumulation of oil, grease and dirt! Yours is WAY TO CLEAN!

[@michaelpeschek3568]

Gratulation. Ein ganz tolles und informatives Video. Es spornt an und macht Lust auf mehr....

[@Voniceman]

Very good tutorial Martin 👍.

[@josemiguelgimeno9573]

I love your vídeo and your explaination of this scenary. 🎉🎉

[@p7s7cdfk]

excellent video as always with great tips thank you!

[@modelrailwaynoob]

Very informative as usual. Great work thank you.

[@bartoncessna1]

Great video and great results!!! Well done.

[@eugeneg68]

Great job. I really liked it

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you Eugene! 👍

[@rdgk1se3019]

Excellent work Martin......keep it up.

[@Lennon6412]

I have always liked the look of the roundhouse used so frequently in many continental european countries, I wish we used them more frequently in the UK. Very nice and informative video as always!

[@DaleSchultz-mixmox]

10:35 before the first use of Burnt umber! :-) I was getting worried! Great job!

[@ErzgebirgsMoBaHO]

Richtig toll gemacht 👍 ich baue meine Gebäude ja selber, aber das Modell ist auch sehr schön geworden. Die Automatischen Türen haben mir gut gefallen 👍LG Tino

[@nick111]

Der Servo ist etwas zu schnell. Aber die Umsetzung ist brillant.

[@MrBiggmartin]

amazing

[@alistairbain6149]

“Rip a piece of your jeans off.” 😂 Luvvit 🤣

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

There's a bunch of model railroaders walking around with a pillow shaped hole in their jeans

[@joachim9043]

Sehr schönes Video. Ich bau viele Gebäude selber, aber kürzlich habe ich auch ein Kibri Steckgebäudeohne Kleber verbaut.Genial. Habe wieder diverse interessante in diesem Video gesehen und gelernt.

[@hansslob6749]

Well done, the only thing I would change is the speed in which the doors close.

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you! Yepp! Me too, but that would require a much more complicated driver circuit. Simply outside of my knowledge of electronic design..

[@hansslob6749]

marklinofsweden Here in the Netherlands we have a website called Arcomora: www.arcomora.com/ . They sell a cheap Arduino + DCC shield for about €10. This will give you the opportunity to program your servos very easyly and make that time about 9 seconds instead of 1. No need for programming skills, the interface is easy to use and allows all kind of possibilities. I use it to switch 3 way switches with the cheapest Chinese servos available.

[@michaelhjerpe7763]

Det ser så enkelt ut, Martin! Men har man erfarenhet så har man.

[@edermontolezi2304]

Você ensina muito bem nem precisa falar o mesmo idioma. Parabéns!

[@MoosesWorkshop]

Nice roundhouse! I'm doing a modern Walthers one.

[@ProducerJakeyJam]

You are doing a really great job. I love this!

[@sumanmxpro3081]

Nic video

[@trainz4brainz]

that's awesome!

[@urama1986]

I love your channel. Modeling like this is almost an art.

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you! Good to hear you like the stuff. 👍😊

Wieder ein sehr informatives Video von dir. Schönes Wochenende.

[@bmwslk230]

Outstanding work, as usual! Great to see roundhouse of Ottbergen. Have you been to the "Bundesmodellbahn" of Karl Fischer's Ottbergen layout? It is located in a little town, called Brakel, just between the cities of Hannover and Dortmund. Really worth to visit, highly recommended!

[@artursmihelsons415]

Fully enjoyed this video! Great as always! :) Like idea, that track goes through round turnout (table) and depo sits aside.. Very good for space tight layouts and for future layout extending.. ;) Usually, depo with round table is at the track end.. These lamp posts with connectors was something new to me..

[@renatoscaglia7298]

Bello bello 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@renekreisel8165]

Sehr nett

[@layoutacademy5569]

Dear Martin, This is another inspirational video that is very well made. Thank you so much for doing this. You actually got me back into model railroading after a 25 year break! One question remains for me: Could you post how you made the controls for the servos? I'd like to make my doors operable, too. Thank you in advance! Frank

[@phil36310]

Hi Martin, As always your video tutorials are nicely to the point and fun to watch. The way you finished this roundhouse is a perfect piece of art ! I love it. What make is the turntable, and is it hand operated ? Looks great & simple. Thanks for sharing ! All the best - filip

[@JAALMARZA]

De nuevo un gran vídeo! Saludos!

[@valborchardt3596]

Thank you once again, what a lovely tutorial, take care as always from South Africa

[@robertholsting]

I connected the servoes to the track power through a home made controller, so when the track is turned on, then the doors open. No power = no movement = closed doors. :-) (I can turn on/off all 12 tracks in the round house individually)

[@flybobbie1449]

To make hinge, paper clip often fits perfect into a syringe needle used to fill printers.

[@trpettuzzo7547]

bravo

[@NThusiaMoBa]

A very amazon Video. Thank you. Great. 👍greets lui

[@AlexEhn]

Haha! Thanks for the mention! :D

[@marklinofsweden]

Welcome! 👍😊

[@melfordhorrocks3327]

Great video as always. I’ve learnt a lot from your tutorials. Those lamps though are new to me, I don’t think I’ve ever seen them in the UK. Could you please tell me where you got them from and who makes them. Thanks, Mel

[@marklinofsweden]

Hi Mel! Thabk you. Good to hear you liike the videos. 👍😊 The illumination system is from ”Viessmann”. Google on Viessmann Modelltechnik. They have a lot of useful stuff and ship worldwide from their webshop.

[@normanrowe2831]

Beautiful work. Amazing results. Question....do you know if these Kilbri snap together kits are available in n scale? As always, eagerly awaiting your next episode. Bye for now.

[@HenrikSweden1]

Very nice ! Love the moving Doors, but why the crack in the glass ? Otherwise a very well made kit . Thanks for the video.
