Video: Building the HO scale Winter Hill quarry branch, part 7
Simple, cheap and clever. Well done.
Cody’s
Hill line came out looking more like the distant pine trees as they should, great work. I will have to try this on the section of Cloudcroft, New Mexico on my up coming lay out.
Looks great and also easy to do. Thanks again Cody.
neat idea and explained in enough detail that we can also do it. Thanks!
It Seems to me it could be used to look like thistles and thorn bushes.
At 7:20 “We have our scenery spruced up here.” Nice!
Excellent and timely video. I have been read about this method and after having watched the video, all my questions about it have been answered. Good work
Excellent presentation from Cody & Steve. Clearly demonstrated, quick, easy with great looking results. I’m going to try it. Thanks!
Cody’s work just gets better with every episode. I think that Al Kalmbach would be pleased!
Thank you all so very much, through all your knowledge about scenery.You fellas save me tons of money that I would have spent on trial and error.
Creative helpful idea, particularly yanking pieces out with pliers, a new medium.
Thanks Cody, enjoyed the presentation. Very helpful.
really enjoy codys and david pops videos great ideas. keep them coming. also jim kelleys n-scale tips thk u crt
I would never thought of using Scotch-brite. Great Idea! I’m trying to remember these great hints to apply to my S-scale layout.
I’ve been enjoying the whole Beer Line series. The craftsmanship is solid and skillfully done without going overboard on fine scale type detailing. That keeps it accessible to most of us mid-range modelers. At the First State Model Railroad Club we’ve used some of the ideas from the quarry to good effect on our modular layout.
I think it would be easier to paint the toothpicks before installing them. That way there would be less reaching over the layout and less chance to drop paint where it is not wanted.
That was a very good presintation. Keep up the real step by step “How To”. A lot of places they skip over the fine detail leaveing you lost as to how to get from A to D. Thank you.
NEVER KNEW I HAD BACKDROP TREES RIGHT IN MY SHED ON A ROLL. WILL BE SURE TO USE THIS IDEA. THANKS.
“Spruced up”???
Did you treely have to say that?
