Hiya' Boomer, I'm so psyched at the moment. I just finished your technique on a VERY narrow creek bed. It turned out fantastic! I now have the over hanging layers to the edge of the creek! I used some type of chop stick with a narrow paddle on the end, (It's also great for stirring paint) and a vary narrow palette knife. Then I feathered the next layer with my finger... Just like you do! You are so awesome, I REALLY appreciate you sharing! You truly are my mentor. Don't stand to close to the overhang on the edge of my creek! If it gives way... You may get wet! 😂 Thank you Boomer!!!

It's amazing how just pulling the applied material forms a tide washing effect. I live in a tidal region, and that's exactly what the grassy soil looks like when the tide is out. "I noticed Dust didn't get his paws dirty though." Cheers

@vincenthuying982 жыл бұрын
Boomer, it’s great to see how you build this shoreline with its banks, how your fingers make the eroded soil structure sculpted by the tides in real life. Photo referencing really helps there, especially to not just be ‘satisfied’ with the single dimension scenic layer.
@boomerdiorama2 жыл бұрын
Yes . . . reference photos are important for sure. Especially when modeling the specific region. Cheers.

@@boomerdiorama Follow up question as had to rewatch this episode - how do you compare Celluclay to Sculptamold? As I am starting my first layout with ply/foam and wanting to keep it light weight as an around the room layout on shelf brackets, avoiding plaster at all costs as its much heavier. Thanks!

Paper mache still works good if are you willing to take the time and have the patients to do layering, I have soaked newspaper in water and use a dinner for breaking it up into mush before adding the wheat sizing to it and wringing out the excess water. Storing it in an airtight container so it doesn't mildew.

Yes. Paper Mache! The modeler's staple as they say. Cheers.

Just use the PVC foam you have. Cover it with a layer of CelluClay or Sculptamold (paper mache) after you chip it down to size.

Boomer, I was worried after reading some comments elsewhere regarding mildew. Any tricks/hints for avoiding? Mildew was a reason others preferred sculptamold instead. Comments?
@boomerdiorama Жыл бұрын
Mildew occurs when the product does not dry due to high humidity and cool temperature. Never had a problem with it if you turn on the heat for a few days until it cures.
