Layout Update - Building The Viaduct Scene #3 

The build video, techniques and finished Viaduct is nothing less than incredibly impressive. Realistic is definitely an understatement.

Love the way you only play 70s music when ur near completion...charming son, lovely layout.

A real masterclass - thank you for sharing.

A quality piece of modelling and inspiration.

There are a few videos using this standard viaduct kit but the results on the video are about the best. Impressed.

Hi there, Greetings from Belgium. I find your viaduct impressive. A small trick I use to make big trees is to build the trunk and main branches from florist wire, create the bark base with pva and toilet paper, then finish the trunk and main branches with polyfilla and water mix (creamy consistency) then sprinkle fine gravel dust. The canopy isobtained by gluing seafoam 'clusters' (removed flowers of the seafoam) and glue them to the end of the thin branches and some with longer stems lower on the branches. I finish by spraying (misting) glue from a gluecan or hard hairspray then noch leaves. Seen this done on RU-vid but learned it two decades ago from a fellow modeller gal (passed away since 😢) and used it to great effects, even on some of my 1/35 dioramas like my WWII scene of a bombed german cityhouse called "Sad homecoming". Hope it'll help you for future projects.

That's ridiculously good.

Stunning details, well done

Looks amazing David. Loving your work. 👍

Your work is excellent. Well done.

So good, well done, learned from this, great inspiration THANKS

Absolutely stunning, that has to be the best modelling I’ve seen the viaduct is fantastic 👍. I’m really looking forward to seeing your layout progress, great effort. Cheers, Mike 🤗

Beautiful work! The stonework painting is outstanding. The overall scene is spectacular. We work in different scales and with different techniques but I still learned a lot. Good stuff!

10/10 this. What a well built scene. Nice style of vid also.

Stunning

Hi David. It's great to see you back at it and producing some quality work to create an excellent video with great results.

Great video and fantastic work. It’s always nice when someone shows you the process rather than just the finished state so you can learn new ideas and techniques. Consider me subscribed. Cheers

Looks fantastic, also well put together video, really enjoyed watching it! Very helpful to watch as a new railway modeller.

Really nice work.❤ Hi from nz

Did you make the viaduct yourself mate?
