HO Scale Layout Update Painting a River September 22, 2024

In this update video I demonstrate my method using acrylic paints to create a flowing river, this is only the first part so the greens are very bright in the light since they are still wet and have yet to dry. This is only one way to create a water scene and it has worked for me a few times before. Just wait until you've seen the finished product, you will love it, how do I know, because it's finished and looking awesome.

Coming along very nicely. Another lesson learnt, never really thought too much about layers.

Finally got to watch this video while having my morning coffee. I love how you do your videos Rob, like we're in the room with you. Your method for painting the river bed is just like mine, but as you know, I don't use epoxy. Anyway, this was an enjoyable watch!😊

Great update, looking forward to seeing this upon completion. I am also very intrigued about using cheap craft paint in airbrush, hope you do a 'how to' on that. I would like to try it but have been very hesitant. Thanks for great video!

[@hoscalemodeltrains1221]

Thank you for watching. I’ll be sure to shoot a video of the airbrush and paint.
