[@joescustoms8321]

The texture looks spot on

[@JeffReiten]

Thank you Joe's Custom's!

[@jeffgoldenberg9579]

Just wow! Will have to give this a go for some aged concrete retaining walls on an HO scale diorama. Thanks so much for sharing your skills and techniques.

[@JeffReiten]

Thanks Jeff! Yeah should work Awesome for that!

[@spankyfuentes3502]

Amazing JR. I enjoy using the DAP spackling as well. DAP r Dan Man.... (O Brother, Where Art Thou? 2000).

[@JeffReiten]

HaHa..Hey Spanky, love the stuff...found it while trying to figure out something to use for grout but am finding tons of uses and projects for it

[@spankyfuentes3502]

Jeff Reiten The spackel is Great for grout on Ho brick kits! I’ll email you a picture

[@JeffReiten]

@@spankyfuentes3502 Oh Cool..Thanks...be curious to see the results..planning on using it for my HO project

[@Marvmensch]

Iam in love with this technique. I try to mimik it with the products that I have available. After watching the video again. I might found the problem. Working on it!

[@JeffReiten]

Ah Nice Marvmensch...Glad to hear your making it work!..let me know how it goes

[@colossalbigfoot256]

Cool. Another technique to try. I used last for siding on shed and it came out great. Thanks for sharing.

[@JeffReiten]

Sweet! Glad to hear it Colossal BigShot!..another tutorial out next Fri Night..may try and get a bonus vid in this week too!

[@CM-ARM]

Man that is really 🔥 nice work. Glad Spanky turned me on to you

[@JeffReiten]

Thanks Chris! and I'm Glad Spanky turned me on to you Too!! ;)

[@chriswright7608]

Very cool and realistic! Seems like you have to buy a lot of supplies to do this effect

[@JeffReiten]

Hey Chris! Thanks!!... you can use them in so many ways on so many projects..like I used the lightweight spackling for brick mortar-used the Hydrocal for pouring scale bricks or making concrete slabs or roads etc etc..so for 25-30 bucks in supplies I have stuff for quite a few projects!

[@JeffReiten]

[@silenttraveler2710]

Brilliant as always... thank you

[@JeffReiten]

Thanks Silent Traveler! Appreciate it! ;)

[@danielclarke649]

Just putting a list together and it doesn’t say what weathering pigments were used for the first and second mix I’m loving these videos

[@nickcharles5891]

Another great vid. A true master! Thanks for the inspiration.

[@JeffReiten]

Thanks Sid! Appreciate it!!

[@SmallSoldier]

Fantastic, Jeff! That's a great way to make a textured stucco surface. And, damn, all that mixing makes me want some chocolate cake now! :)

[@JeffReiten]

lol...oh Yeah!...Now we are Talking...thanks small soldier

[@ModelNerd]

Great job! Really realistic results - definitely going to have a go at trying this. Thanks for uploading.

[@JeffReiten]

Thanks Model Nerd..definitely give it a try!

[@oitoitoi1]

Phenomenal! How do you prevent warping of the base material?

[@JeffReiten]

Thanks oitoitoi! The mix used dries pretty fast and the wood used was was Pretty thick...thinner wood may have warped

[@samsscaleproductions2514]

well after seeing this I already have an excellent reference for a pair of dioramas that I have in mind, luckily I just bought two of your molds on ebay😃 I hope to try them soon! and I have to say that the finishes you achieve are top! and with very easy to follow processes! thanks for sharing these tutorials!!

[@JeffReiten]

Thanks sam's scale productions..Those are some really nice and appreciated comments..and a Big Thanks for picking up some of my Molds!!😃

[@kitaster8120]

What is the base material that you are applying your mixture to? Is it foam or something else? Thank you.

[@JeffReiten]

Hey Kit Aster! ..in this video I am using a wood base ...I add a little wood glue into the mix to help it stick..if you were using something like a foam or plastic base you can just stick with the white/Elmers glue!

[@spankyfuentes3502]

Can you share which BRAND weathering powder you used please? Amazing Work!

[@spankyfuentes3502]

Bragdon powders?

[@JeffReiten]

@@spankyfuentes3502 Yep those are the ones..stuff is pretty awesome...www.bragdonent.com/weather.htm

[@nickcharles5891]

Jeff, have a question. Thinking about making some molds after watching your vids. Do you use a vacuum to get the bubbles out of the silicone?

[@JeffReiten]

Hey Sid, ... I don't use a vacuum chamber for the silicone - but I do use a pressure pot at about 30 psi...the nice thing about the Smooth On dragon skin series silicone you don't really even need to do that for simple molds...50/50 mix ratio pour over part and can be used to cast resin (with a release agent) or plaster with no release agent www.smooth-on.com/products/dragon-skin-30/ www.smooth-on.com/products/ease-release-205/

[@nickcharles5891]

@@JeffReiten Thanks, appreciate the vids and quick response.

[@DanielFerreira-ub2hl]

Amazing work. I have a quick question. What is the plaster-lab stone you mention? Thanks in advance for your help.

[@JeffReiten]

Hey Daniel! Thank You! I use www.plasterguys.com/Dental/Lab-Stone-Type-3

[@DanielFerreira-ub2hl]

@@JeffReiten Many thanks for the help! I'll give it a try. The result is excellent!

[@JeffReiten]

@@DanielFerreira-ub2hl Thanks again! I used the dental stone just cause its so rigid-almost any plaster should get similar results..let me know how it works out or if you have any more questions

[@dancollettc1520]

How would you adjust the colours/pigments to create a faded white render instead? Would you use an off white throughout?

[@JeffReiten]

Hey Dan! Yep- Exactly just tone back the pigments and the paints to almost nothing and then a very thinned light wash at the end to highlight

[@lawcreations6805]

Hello sir, I really appreciate you sharing your process and techniques. The realism that you achieve is inspiring. I create in 1/18th scale, is it possible to capture this amount of realism in that scale? I definitely will be trying to learn the techniques that you show and once again I appreciate you sharing your craft. Looking forward to more of your work and videos.

[@JeffReiten]

Hey Law Creations! Thank You!..Oh Yeah these techniques will Definitely work in 1/18th scale....Most of these tutorials range from 1/87th to 1/35th ... scale -a few just a tiny bit larger..so working in 1/18th scale you will really be able to achieve awesome detail with these techniques..Thanks Again for the Compliments and more tutorials are on the way soon!!

[@lawcreations6805]

Thank you so much for your quick response I appreciate it. I'm looking forward to learning and Thank you for sharing the possibilities that can be achieved. I'll be watching all your videos again and I'm looking forward to more. Take care and be well.

[@danielclarke649]

What’s the pigment you use in the mix

[@JeffReiten]

Hey Daniel..!...I used Bragdon Weathering powders here but I use Mig or AK in my mixes all the time...www.bragdonent.com/weather.htm

[@deer1578]

Do you still reply to comments

[@JeffReiten]

Yep!😁

[@laurie.n2487]

I've scraped it off twice now and I'm trying again! Think maybe I'm making it too thick...

[@JeffReiten]

Hey Laurie. N! Oh No!...whats not working about it-Coloring or Texture?

[@laurie.n2487]

@@JeffReiten I think maybe I over think it instead of letting it organically come together. I'll keep practicing! Is regular plaster ok, and can you use any glue?
