Jesús, this is extremely impressive detail. I was looking for how harbours (real ones) are made and I clicked because of how realistic this looks

GUD hälsningar, herr Tärnrot. Jag snubblade över alla dina videor av en slump och jag måste säga att jag är förvånad. Jag kan använda mycket av det du visar här för mina diorama. Tack igen, ha det bra, god hälsa till dig och din familj och varma hälsningar från Tyskland.

[@eugeneg68]

Hi Mark! Great tutorial! I also wanted to do something similar. But alas, for a number of reasons I can not

[@VinnyandDawn]

Brilliant 👍🚂

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you! There is a video being published next Friday on how to both carve and paint portals. I have a poll active right now where you can vote for the type of portals I will make in the video. There are currently only 9 votes so yours will have significant weight. Check out the Patreon page for information and poll (Link is upper right hand corner, in the banner of the channel page). The portals are given away to the Patron who gives me the best reason.

[@TrainLordJC]

A fantastic tutorial explaining how to get the waves in the harbour. Our HO scale train club is building a harbour at the moment and some of your skills will be noted for our work there. I have subscribed and I will recommend it to the other guys at the club.

[@medivoadmin]

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you Dan! 👍😊

[@ralphviola6594]

I like the way you did the tires and I was wondering how you were going to power the locos after you covered the third railnicely done. Always look forward to your videos

New subscriber here 🙋.. awesome work 👍😎

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you! Welcome to the channel!

[@artstronomic9714]

I have a Marklin diorama Z scale, but in HO there is so much detail. You make it look easy but it's definitely not.

[@baronjutter]

Great tutorial on the stonework and water! I didn't know people still used 3rd rail tracks, seems like a pain to work around its needs.

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you Jarren! 👍😊 😄 This was the cheapest tracks I could find and the only I could afford to buy. I know it’s not so pretty, but for me it was this or nothing.. I hopeing that the people donating to the channel, so I one day can buy a better system. 👍

[@baronjutter]

I've never seen track quite like that, nothing like the 3rd rail track I've seen before. It almost looks like cog-wheel track. Why is it little spikes instead of a continuous centre rail?

[@macairet]

incroyable

[@XxCleanUpBoyxX]

You are so talented, you should weathering your boxcars and trains too...

[@marklinofsweden]

Thank you! I´m working on the weathering. It´s coming!

[@XxCleanUpBoyxX]

@@marklinofsweden awesome, im excited about the weathering. ;)

[@VauxhallRailfan]

0:36 I love everything about this- Also, at the end of the video you mentioned a ferry where cars can be moved on. Have you done any videos where you show that because I’m trying to get my head around where to position it and how to do it

[@creatrixcorvusarts876]

I have never seen your technique for making water, and I am very impressed with how effective if is! And you use toilet paper to do it!

[@didi-yu7uu]

Toller Hafen, tolles Video. Klasse. Was hast du für ein tolles Schneidegerät? Rasierklinge? Sehe ich in fast jedem Video und find das ist ein gutes Werkzeug

[@thenuptse8827]

I love this. Think the modelling, skills and realism are awesome, but just wondering. Would there be the grass and weeds growing and the wear and tear etc on an actual working harbour or would this not be the case in only an abandoned, more derelict situation?

[@tenchu65]

For a harbour in a big city bye the ocean no , but Sweden got inland lakes , much like North America , and they look like this .
