Scenery work for model railroading!

In this episode which is part 4 we build a boiler house and do scenery work on a diorama. I show many techniques such as how to do stucco, painting concrete, using real dirt and many more! hope you enjoy the video and happy modeling!!!

[@darrylhuffman1564]

Building structures brings satisfaction to a model builder. Your model building skills are exceptional. But going beyond the structure building and developing a reasonable, yet very attractive scene requires a whole different set of skills. Jason, I am very happy to be living in a time where young talent like you have is being shared in videos. I was fortunate to visit John Allen when he and Jim Findley were adding rockwork to a new portion of his layout. But that was just a small glimpse of his modeling skills. The contributions you are making to the hobby by sharing your ideas, your methods and your clear explanations are not only valuable to us today, but your efforts will be seen by new generations of model builders for years to come. What a wonderful time to be alive and see efforts such as your's preserved for posterity. Thank you for taking the time to film and edit these videos. They are priceless.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much for the kind words Darryl, I really appreciate it!!!

[@schadowolf]

Immensely enjoying this build between you and Doug! Viewer has no idea what will happen each episode LOL. Fantastic looking kit bash!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much!!! This was such a fun project between Doug and I. Be sure to watch Doug’s videos on his channel at Fos Scale Models. 👍

[@js4folk]

Can't wait for the next team build! Spectacular!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much John!!!!

[@LordRusty5]

Using the clear hot glue is a stroke of genius! Great tip! Well done!

[@tracyhickman1359]

Claps all around, what a fun series, great techniques as always and a wonderful platform for the humane society!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much, we truly appreciate it!!!

Jason, Hi, This is turning out amazing. It is really impressive. You are Doug are so talented. I look forward to the next instalment. Cheers, Michael

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Michael!!!

[@paintnamer6403]

Here from Scale Hanger 182, well worth it, you have great techniques and vision.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you, I really appreciate it!!!

[@robertschmidt6383]

Wow fantastic work!! Awesome effort on both of your two guys parts. Can't wait to see the other side and the finished product.

[@zonegamma8197]

good video as always I liked the tip of usinf a hacksaw blade to cut the foam and the preparation of the ground and carving of the concrete slabs

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much and thanks for watching!!! I always appreciate it!!

[@cprtrain]

I love what you are doing. Great advice and techniques. Thanks.

Pure Excellence! !! I absolutely love it!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!!

[@2H80vids]

This one's on a whole different level Jason. You and Doug have high standards and amazing skills but, even for you guys, this is a beautiful model. I'm really looking forwatd to seeing how Doug completes it and I can't even guess what it will raise on eBay. A craftsman kit of this size would surely be several hundred; having it ready-built (to this standard) plus being a "famous KZbin build" has to put it nearer to 𝒇𝒐𝒖𝒓 figures. I certainly hope so; it's for a good cause. Fantastic work from both of you - and it's not even finished yet.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so very much, we truly appreciate it!!!!

[@martincsanadi2969]

I love it, Jason! Great work as usual

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you for watching Rick!!!

[@daviemaclean61]

Fantastic! It's been the best idea, not to mention the end auction for charity, to have you and Doug go back and forth on this project. Especially as neither of you knw what the other is going to add until it arrives in the mail. Cheers

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much! We are having so much fun!!!!

[@bernardbourdon2678]

Wow all the final details all around with the closer look we can see your amazing work. You and Doug are excellent and very helpful for the hobby people. Thanks again always enjoying your video.

[@edhorst7212]

Entire build between two modelers is a fantastic journey.. smallest details, such as that alley way, adds such realism.. now onto the finish by Doug..

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so very much Ed!!!

[@wilzdart]

One of the best things I so far have learned on your channel if you practice your technics, your modeling just gets better. Love the technic on using a glue gun for water drainage. Adding details, the video you did on the garage really upped my game...it even works in N scale!! Thanks for raising the bar in my modeling.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Will, it truly means a lot to me hearing that! As always thanks for watching!!!

[@mp-modelplastic]

Funtastic work, well done, great videos with good tips. Keep going the good work. Greetings from Portugal😉👍

[@JohnMullerJDGCTRy]

Fantastic work Jason. Again you've inspired me and I'm sure many others. You and Doug partner great together. Thanks for another great post.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much John!!!

[@JohnMullerJDGCTRy]

@@JasonJensenTrains I'd like to thank you for answering my comments. I realize you have a ton of them and you taking the time out of your busy schedule means a lot to me and others. Oh BTW I'm working on a bridge lift out like yours so that I can add an 18 inch finger so I can do some running and a wye at the end and no longer be point-to-point. It will make my layout look like a "P".

[@jeffmorris6381]

Jason, excellent modeling. You seem to improve with every project, and we benefit from your videos. Thanks.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Jeff, I really appreciate it!!!

[@redbarnz]

Fantastic job!

Thank you!!!

[@alexwake850]

Fantastic video, I really love the different textures of the walls, with brick and wood and then all neat details, and the outflow pipe, as always thanks for sharing.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Alex!!! This has been such a fun project! Thanks for watching!!!

[@pierrecasavant3381]

Looking incredible guys.......you two kept me sane during the lockdown...... I'm a retired architect and starting building models inspired by the both of you......

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so very much John!!!

That is an incredible diorama…Luv the scenery work and how it all comes together!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Richard!!!

[@christianwood7432]

Incredible.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you Christian!!!

[@CassidysWorkshop]

Fantastic job, Jason. I love all the view angles you get with the mixed levels, and the finished are, as usual, gorgeous. So much fun watching you bring it all together.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Greg, I really appreciate it!!!

[@Red-mp3to]

This is really fantastic! Both of you are superb modelers and so inspirational. I can't wait to see the finished "product"! And I hope you guys hit a home run when selling this on eBay. Both of you deserve it and I'll be rooting for you guys (...and I'm sure I'll be bidding as well ;-) ).

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much John, We really appreciate it!!!!

[@tomkelly3896]

Incredible talent....and patience....nice✌

I have to say ... I am so impressed .. excellent, excellent work

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Edward, I truly appreciate it!!!

[@embee06311]

Very interesting to see your scenery work. There is no way I can replicate that but at least I am encouraged to give it a try. Mike B.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much!!! It’s not as hard as it looks! I’m sure you can do it. Thanks for watching!!!

[@dennishavlicek8845]

Another outstanding work Jason. I like where the money is going too. You guys are just great.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so very much Dennis!!!

[@interactionhobbies]

Absolutely stunning work as usual Jason. I absolutely love the way the buildings just ramble along and blend perfectly into your scenery. Always look forward to see what you do next. My motivation for the day!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate the kind words!!!

[@subsailor1445]

Top shelf skills and the imagination that you gentlemen possess is incredible. Thanks for the great videos and inspiration you give.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much, we truly appreciate it!!!

[@FosScaleModels]

Looks awesome Jason! The alley is my favorite part! Can't wait to finish it.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thanks buddy! Such a fun project!!!

[@mikeburton8687]

Well you guys have done an excellent job on this so inspiring and so realistic thanks for sharing

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Mike!!!

[@brianfowler5064]

Can you do a video on the differences of chalk paint, stains, shaders, and acrylics, including how each medium looks when painted, dry brushed, or as a wash? I was thinking of each kind in isolation. More about the ingredients than the final dish.

[@genejordan9983]

That’s so cool. Both you guys did an awesome job.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much, we really appreciate it!!!

[@prcekveliky4740]

1) Thank you for video, I've learnt something again. 2) Would you mind, if you do similar cooperation series in future, putting links to other parts in video description, please?

[@jimmystrainstationandtrave6931]

beautiful work Jason, really impressed with this diorama. keep up the great work, you inspire me so much!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!!

[@HoboHeaven]

Always a Pleasure to see your Videos. I watch only your Chanel and Luke Towans. Will you ever build a Model Railroad? Greetings from Germany.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much!!! I’m building a entire model railroad on my KZbin channel! Please watch some older videos, I even gave a tour a few videos back. Thanks for watching!!!

[@HoboHeaven]

@@JasonJensenTrains will look for the vids. If your MR is half perfect as your houses it will be a blast.

[@greghomestead8366]

Love your videos. I've learned so much. Check out hobby lobby they have something called t-pins in the upholstery area. they're great for holding track down and you don't have to use two pins 😁👍

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Greg!!!

[@LufthansaB747_]

Nice

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you Tony!!!

[@mariadolores8468]

I like waste Lander diorama will you ever show how you do your fallout painting?

[@mikegall5511]

Amazing Jason. Is the drainage tube made from aluminum foil ?

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Mike!!! It’s Campbells corrugated aluminum.

[@tomkelly3896]

I bet you could sell pre printed billboards....maybe a 3 pak....10...or 11 buks include shipping.....many of us dont have computers or printers....im interested for sure🤠

[@janean3773]

I may have missed it, but is there a link to Doug's videos? Would like to see his techniques you mentioned. 😊

[@robertschmidt6383]

How do you ship that VERY fragile package to your friend without damage? Very carefully I would imagine. "THIS SIDE UP" FOR sure. 😅

[@MrEnglishford]

where do you buy ammo

[@andywolf3205]

Where Subtitle ? :((

[@Mason-DixonRR]

No way you made the water like that! You have to use expensive hard to find products like the rest of us. SMH.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

LOL!!! Thanks for watching!!!

[@johnzeller1338]

Awesome workmanship! I thought I was good but I guess I'm up for learning new things and I thank you for that. I now need to go back and find part three that somehow got by me.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much John!!!

[@harleynut1961]

Another well done video. Lynn

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so very much Lynn!!!

[@ajkleipass]

Okay, I've got to ask the hard question: how did you ship that back to Doug without it getting knocked to pieces? Package shipping, while not intentionally destructive, isn't exactly tender and cautious either.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

LOL. Basically a plywood box. It’s a scary risk mailing anything!
