Okay

[@KassiusFineArt]

Great job! Could you lose the distracting music in next video?

[@GrimTech]

10 years ago....... how time flows just like this beautiful waterfall.

[@Mickr4]

This is very beautiful, Woodland Scenics, and look very realistic. Woodland Scenics. I'm impressed at the attention to details. Woodland Scenics. Thank you for sharing. Woodland Scenics

Right out of the bottle

Mickr4 hi your craft are a legend

[@SK-zl6sl]

Mickr4 You have made my day, thank you.

[@carmium]

I have to give Woodland Scenics credit for all they have done to make scenery simple. Back when I started modelling, instructions would typically include go this store, find a distributor of that, and mail order from this company. Even though train and track development was coming along nicely, scenery took a back seat and advice was as varied as peoples' track plans! You can still experiment and modify your techniques, but especially if scenery daunts you, just do it the WS way. Well done.

[@johncoontas7212]

Amazing what human minds can conceive and hands can make.

[@Seredetia]

Man, I have NO desire to ever make this stuff, but your videos fascinate me. So talented.

[@richardfrancis5406]

Just simply unreal what can be done if you have the tools and skills...Woodland Scenics looks like they really have some awesome stuff!

[@rachel7689]

I collect schleichs, and was looking for inspiration for backdrops i can build to put them on display. Well, not only have you inspired me, you have blown me away sir. Thank you

[@Sms68]

I did this technique with my Waterfall for my layout and it came out incredible. I also used white feathers I bought from Michaels and used it for the splash coming up (brush over it with water effects) .. Thanks Matt. Mad Skills. Raw Talent !!!!

[@heididrake8876]

oh yeah, feathers make great splash effects. :)

[@Sms8668]

HandmadeByHeidi Drake I think it was feathers or Angel hair. Been awhile. You can also use cotton Balls

[@lilylikeschicken2686]

Wow! This is amazing! I've always wanted to have a miniature world. And now I can!

[@willd.4808]

I've always been fascinated by dioramas with water scenes...I remember going to a museum as a kid and seeing a diorama of a Native American tribe and they had a cross-section of a river with tiny salmon suspended in it and I was like HOW DID THEY DO THAT and now I'm learning the tricks they use ;)

[@PandorasReachAM]

Took me so long to find this video again, but I'm glad I did. I loved watching this video as a kid.

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

We're glad you enjoy our videos so much!

[@silkboxing4454]

Matt, Incredible work. I made a 3 tier Waterfall with your techniques and it came out incredible. I been working on a 8 foot mountain with A waterfall for yrs now. Had 3 Sons so took a long Break for a while but back into it. Great Job. Subscribed !!!

We're so glad you're happy with your results!

[@Ramseas119]

id like to see a time lapse of one of these being made...looks pretty cool.

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

That’s a fun idea! I’ll be sure to pass that along. Thanks and happy modeling!

[@rohankhatwani4151]

to make a long story short, this is the best model ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@paramesranjit6592]

Very Nice and realistic waterfall

[@ash3227]

I wish I had the space to build models like this! So amazing!

[@darissk3869]

I really like when I spell out a miniature waterfall project and thank you this video for inspiring me

[@ReMiResh-he4ii]

very creative,beautiful scene,beautiful water and also realistic rocks in the model, I see inspiration

[@faery221]

I love it! I just made a scene but I used hot glue. It turned out nice, but I would like to try this kind! Thanks for the Inspiration! Blessings to you !

[@ghostcityshelton9378]

The music is fine. I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm learning so many new things & ALOT easyer way of doing them. I know how to use pillow fibers to work in the water falls but you're way is alot easyer. Thank you for shareing your knowledge with us!

[@kingiummina]

Can't believe how beautiful result it is.

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Hello Van De Rach...I think you may be referring to the release paper, to which Matt applied the Water Effects to make the waterfall. He used lined freezer paper that you can purchase at most grocery stores. You could also use a cookie sheet with a non-stick surface, like Teflon. FYI...waxed paper will work, but leaves a film on the backside surface of the Water Effects. Hope this helps!

[@satheshsathesh1259]

Nice

[@subiesubie]

Matt is an absolute legend.

[@spartanscenery]

Wow! definitely the most realistic I've ever seen!

[@bitterstories418]

Wonderful piece of art. Great work

[@josemaciel13]

That design would make a beautiful aquarium

[@Hubert99999]

Even though this is probably as nerdy as it gets, you are very talented! keep it up

[@Phygar1]

Anyone who doesn't appreciate stuff like this isn't worth your time

[@RoboticDragon]

Pretty impressive, showed me a couple things I had never thought of before, this is a great video thanks.

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

No problem...we would just be thrilled to see it!

[@ChaosBud]

found this in my suggestions and actually enjoyed it

[@GrayArmyGaming]

Incredibly realistic! Thanks for the showcase and inspiration!

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Thanks and happy modeling!

[@FSXNOOB]

First time i'm speechless on youtube... amazing job :)

[@najla17channel]

very real and beautiful

[@PionMegadeth123]

I don't understand how can people dislike this... is, omg, PERFECT

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

The water on the ground was modeled with Realistic Water. The Realistic Water should be poured according to the directions on the bottle and fully cured BEFORE adding the waterfall. When the Realistic Water is fully cured (to a glass clear state), add the pre-molded waterfalls. Then, dab Water Effects onto the cured surface to model splashes and current.

[@noobsaibot7073]

The Cool thing is it looks rly Realistic, everytime i Look at your Waterfall i wonder if it is Real xD Looks like a Picture made in Reallife. Even the Rocks and everything looks just insane.

[@madmiask]

Amazing waterfall ! Just wow !

[@Sms68]

Incredible Job!.... I build layouts and get great ideas off here. his is one of the more impressive Details for a waterfall I've seen... Just bought the River Pass HO Kit also.....Thanks!

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Thanks! Glad you like the video and found the information useful! Hope you plan to maybe deviate from the instructions enough to model a waterfall on your River Pass?

[@robinadil4324]

Very creative and innovative ideas!!! Thanks for sharing 😊😀😃

[@pouetpouet2539]

Magnifique , j'adore ❤❤❤❤

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Merci beaucoup.

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Hello Kevin, Wow! Sounds like a great project. We would love to see some photos of it when you are done, and hear about your modeling experience. You can send them to the Marketing Department through our website in the Contact Us section, or post them to our Facebook page. Have fun with your project! Thanks for posting!

[@H8edsinclair]

Great video m8.. I have been wanting to start building layouts for a while I scratch build rc aircraft and do a lot of painting of diecast models and some custom airbrushing. .as a kid I went to roadside America in Pennsylvania had that modeling bug ever since then

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Thanks! Hope you can begin building that layout soon! If you can't start yet, or don't have the room, you could always create dioramas for your diecast models! I have seen some amazing ones, that set these models into historical context, creating some captivating scenes. I have never been to Roadside America, but sure would like to see it someday! Happy Modeling!

[@outsider238]

Nice instructional video but the music is obnoxious and loud. We need to hear what your saying. No music would be fine.

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Thank you for your feedback. Happy modeling!

[@rayreyes5405]

Music should be much lower.

[@TheDrummerman1951]

If that music is too loud you people are too old

[@jlpytlewski]

@@TheDrummerman1951 age got nothing to do with it, can't hear the guy talking with music blaring over his voice..lol.

[@2snowgirl520]

Unbelievable! You are an artist.

[@fiyama1]

He snapped on this.. Wow love it

[@andressommer1801]

Congratulations , looks very good , i really like what you made it.

[@0megacron]

That is some gorgeous work.

[@sarcasmo57]

I bet you feel just like god when he makes model water features.

[@tillum7593]

Thanks for that video! I will try it out

[@SkipRoGlo]

I have used Realistic water for small projects and love it. I recently made a small lake and used epoxy for the first time. It did not cure right due to low temp. And is very sticky. Can I use Realistic Water over this epoxy?

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Realistic Water is a pretty reactive substance. While we have not tested it with every epoxy, placing Realistic Water on top of any improperly cured epoxy will likely have some issues. We recommend tearing out the improperly cured epoxy and sealing the water cavity with Plaster Cloth and one of our Water Undercoats or 100% acrylic paints before using Realistic Water. Best of luck building!

[@SkipRoGlo]

@@ModelSceneryExpert thank you

[@yvenne3134]

It's beautiful, and looks very realistic, but for what did you use it? Did you build it only for yourself, or are you selling them? Maybe for exhibitions?

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

We sell all the products you need to create your own. It's simple enough that anyone can do it and create expert results!

[@twopencilartacademy]

Beautiful very nice

[@lewisebdon2292]

nice vid beautiful piece of scenery

[@megazone2337]

This is a good tutorial to me. Thanks a lot.. Gonna use some of the ideas.

[@davidpapworth8550]

WOW that's beautiful fantastic clever man

[@TwinStrawberry]

That looks like real waterfall...😍 you are really talented.

[@ShirayukiHana21]

I've been looking for this! I'm going to do my best in my IM for science fair and I found this! thanks for sharing your knowledge about this! its so wonderful :D

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

+Jerley Quiambao Hello Jerley! Glad we could be of help. Good luck with your project and happy modeling!

[@japonesdoparaguai1400]

Parece que fizeram uma mágia e encolheram a Cachoeira ( It seems that they did a magic and they shrank the Waterfall ) Fantastic!!

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

The items mentioned in video are Water Effects, Realistic Water, Plaster Cloth, Earth Colors Liquid Pigments, Lightweight Hydrocal, Rock Molds and Foam Boards. You need something to cut the foam, i.e. Hot Wire Foam Cutter or foam knife, newspapers, and a variety of turf and other scenery materials to model the realistic landscape. Two other videos will help you with your model - How to Color Plaster Rocks with Earth Colors Liquid Pigments and Easily Model Realistic Ground Cover. Hope this helps

[@MXClover]

So have you guys ever dealt with weathering trains? I'm a bit tired of having pristine trains running around and would like to dirty them up abit. Also, who is it using the KZbin account and replying to us? Matt seems pretty cool.

[@Mattslade6024]

wow that look very nice. is there any were i can get a oo gauge waterfall like this made for me or ready made?

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Hello Matt, I'm sorry, but we do not offer ready-made waterfalls. BUT! They are soooooooooooo easy to make, you can absolutely make your own. Give it a try!Thanks for your interest, and Happy Modeling!

[@etho5032]

its so cool but i dont plan and mesure dioramas much i just go along with it to make it more random and reilistic

[@damianwodarczyk1215]

the effect is stunning!

[@bobo327]

Nice video 😊

[@treetalk_]

Rock Music whilst a instructural video is playing, great.

[@nilu2163]

what exactly do you mean by leopard painting tech also do you have a video of how you designed the lower part of the waterfall where it gradually forms into a pond --just needed som ideas

[@unicornpee1455]

You should have a TV show 😄👏🏻 ı would definetely watch it 😭👌🏻👏🏻💛

[@heididrake8876]

great job but fill up the very top pool with more water. it's got to be higher so water can flow over the rocks. You can also create the splash with toilet paper, water and wood glue mixed and a brush for making the splash build up.

[@CTCenter]

that... looks... AMAZING!

[@laceythompson2579]

Amazing job

[@roopeshkrishna34]

Great video.. thanks for sharing..

[@gamecmaster8893]

I like the waterfall and rocks too

[@kellybarry2866]

This is VERY helpful! I might make a diorama of this for Breyerfest 2015! (:

[@JASHVEER22]

sir you have great technique.. Hats off to you

[@josecorrea2025]

[@sanjayajaiswal4750]

it's beautiful and look real

[@aocruiser]

I like the waterfall came out! Keep up the great work!

[@zipp4everyone263]

Looks really nice, the rocks really blew me away. However i think the waterfall looks a bit weird and unrealistic but i have no idea why or how to fix that.

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Hello! We’re glad you liked how the rocks turned out. Did you try modeling the waterfall and not get the results you wanted?

[@HarrysComicCamp]

Good Job!

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Thank you!

[@euanangus8853]

Great Vid

[@tammylovescats]

Awesome Job

[@heathernwells]

I loved this video, and was really wanting to try this out on a big youtube project I am working on. The base is in polymer clay though. I called the company, and the woman I spoke with didn't know if I can use it on cured polymer clay. Do you know if this will work on Polymer clay? Heather

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

Hello Heather, We thoroughly test all of our products for their intended use. Since we did not intend Realistic Water to be used with polymer clay, we cannot give you an opinion on how it would perform under these circumstances. We have not tested the two materials together, and we are concerned that the Realistic Water could possibly eat into the modeling clay. We do offer a smaller amount Realistic Water in our Scene-A-Rama line, sold in many hobby shops and most Hobby Lobby and Michaels stores. It is tinted blue and retails for $7.99 (often less in retail outlets and online) if you would like to try it out. I have included a link to the product below. scenearama.woodlandscenics.com/show/Item/SP4195/page/1 Thank you for your interest!

[@ruthjohnson1001]

Amazing! I will try it out.😀

[@azile379]

amazing art

[@rudykroh16]

oh my that's so so beautiful

[@nitopontocom]

wonderful!! Very, very cool!!!! Perfection!

[@XAheli]

Amazing very helpful. Thank you sir

[@stephenlinturn1224]

Love the video, are there any videos which show step by step how to make this type of waterfall?

[@riswinjillcaparida4281]

You should cooperate with Luke Towan because both of you have realistic, cool, and unbelievable ideas!

[@amymimi1896]

Opps I meant is Lightweight Hydrocal safe for aquarium use and is the paint safe? Cause I really enjoy the realistic final look of it all, and I wanted to try making an underwater waterfall with this kind of look.

[@ModelSceneryExpert]

+Amy Mimi It sounds like a great idea! However, our products are not designed to be used in an aquarium and are not waterproof.

[@brijlatajakhar2165]

I am speechless 😶 Wonderful Fantastic 😍 lovely

[@brendon6930]

I’d really like to know how you made those little green/yellow mossy dots in the water
