Hello David, Your scratch made buildings are superb! From the still shot for this video, I thought it was a real building! Thanks for sharing with us your intricate and skilled techniques, the results are quite remarkable. I've always had an interest to try to create realistic miniatures, and now your tutorials have given me the inspiration to give it a go! Thank you David.

A very nice and realistic model. I recently completed a scratch built model of my mother in laws house for my brother in laws layout, but entirely in plasticard as temperature differences in the loft make cardboard warp over time. However, I gave up on the windows and used proprietry ones, so I will try your method next time.

What a superb instructional video. I particularly liked the way in which you made several windows all at once. I will try to use that method in my current model building. Being relatively new to miniature building processes and having only ever used various woods to date, would you say that plasticard is easier to work with and paint when making doors and windows?
@davidhyde43294 жыл бұрын
Hi David. Thanks for the comments, glad you liked the video. I would say plasticard is easier to work with. It is available in a greater variety of small thicknesses - this makes it easier to work than wood and it is sturdier to work with than card (for finer parts). It is also smooth and takes paint really well. The thicker cardboard is less expensive and fine for main structure. Details (window frames, doors, drainpipes, chimney pots, shop fronts, etc) suit plasitcard well. 👍👍👍

Thanks for the excellent video David! Was the brick paper something you purchased at a hobby shop? If not, how did you come about it?
@davidhyde43294 жыл бұрын
Hi Scott, thanks for your kind comments. The brick papers for this are available as a download from Scalescenes here is the link to their 'scratch-builders' yard. scalescenes.com/scratchbuilders-yard/ You need to follow the instructions because there is a good chance that the prints will change colour. Buy quality inks for your printer to give you the best chance. A safer way is to buy ready printed papers from your local model shop (if you are lucky enough to have one) - failing that, google 'OO brick papers' online. The advantage of the download is that, once you have made your purchase, you can print it out as many times as you wish ... David

Hi David. I have no room for a proper rail=layout, so I am making 'dioramas' with static model; mostly under 'glass' cases made from acrylic panels. I need something to represent the permanent way under the lengths of rail which support my locos. Have you any ideas what I could use to represent the permanent way? Some kind of abrasive paper springs to mind. What do you think? Thanks for your videos on scratch-building! John in Brum.
@davidhyde43294 жыл бұрын
Hi, apologies for the very late reply. I am thinking you are referring to the under-track ballast. My layout is set in the 1960s - just check it out if you are modelling a more modern era. Either way this material can be purchased readily in various colours and grades. Check out the many videos that will deal with this. You can buy ready shaped cork underlay strips but this won't look so convincing. My bet would be to use just the ballast. For roadways I would use an emery paper as it is basically a road colour (but it would need weathering etc). Choose a fine grade, in OO guage there hould be hardly any noticeable texture - you could simply paint the surface of your base. Hope this helps ... David

@davidhyde43296 жыл бұрын
Thanks for your interest Andrew. You may be right as I did not actually measure the building in the first place but scaled up a photograph as explained. It might be a tad out but I judged it against some OO figures, having said that there is a big variance in the correctness of figures. I also used doors from a Metcalfe kit to get my doors 'correct' for size. On balance I figure you may well be right but, in all honesty, they don't strike me as being far adrift. I am (slowly) in the process of making another shop - I will take another look at it. The vehicles are from Oxford Diecasts, I have not heard that they have scale issues.

First, search google earth in google and click the download option under the first result. Then click the agree and download button on the next page. Next, install the set up that you downloaded for the desktop version of google earth. Then, zoom in or search in the upper left search box to where you want to go and click the ruler icon at the top. A window should pop up where you can select a unit of length, such as feet, miles, etc. Finally pick two points you want to measure and you should get a result in that window that poped up.
