Modern roundhouse and 130' turntable from Walthers: Tracklaying
This is episode 2 of the build of the 3-stall modern roundhouse (H0) from Walthers (kit 933-2900) and the 130’ turntable, also from Walthers. This is a massive build with 33 stalls making it 330 degrees. This takes a lot of extra planning as you will see but it will be worth it.
In this episode I prepare the tracks before they are painted and put in. I will show you a way of doing it so you do not have to raise the turntable pit for a smooth transfer between the bridge and the roundhouse tracks.

Building the Walthers roundhouse and using the 130' turntable.
zhlédnutí 940Před 2 lety
This is the first episode of building a huge diorama of the Walthers roundhouse with 130' turntable. The diameter is around 160 cm, 5 feet and it will be built, painted and have interior lighting installed as I progress. This is the first in a series since this is a large building to complete. I will later ad the rest of what is needed on this engine service facility. I would love to hear from ...

How to speed paint battle damaged Rubric marines with gold trim in less than ten minutes.
zhlédnutí 1,4KPřed 4 lety
Everyone loves the rubrics, but most people hate painting the trim. This is my answer to that. Speed painted in less then ten minutes (not including drying times) with there bases done it's an option for those who want to play with their models rather then dreaming about that "magic day" when they suddenly where all painted. So like and subscribe if you liked this video.

How to paint and prepare a classic Herohammer lizardmen Kroxigor.
zhlédnutí 839Před 4 lety
In this video I prepare and paint a classic kroxigor miniature from the Herohammer/middlehammer age of warhammer. The style is classic but done mostly with modern Citadel colours making it easy for new and old to follow. Please let me know in the comments below what I should paint next? A stegadon in the same colours? A Hero or perhaps something completely different?

    Do you have any recommendations for the Wardroth Beetle that comes with the kit? I was tempted to try converting it into a Vortex Beast, but Im not sure how well it would adapt to a 90mm oval base 🤔

    • @magnushobbychannel4652
      @magnushobbychannel4652 Před rokem

      I did just that. I built up the base so that it would fit on it. I then put the vortex beast thing on the back of the beetle and painted it in my TS colour scheme.

      @@magnushobbychannel4652 Awesome! I'm using it for a casual narrative set of games with friends so it's the perfect piece for it.

    I'll explain a "Day" (I'm the same way). A Day is more so a task that can be anywhere from 7, 16 or 20 hours. It all depends on what happens during the install. In most cases we will add some kind of detail that extend time to the task but we don't care as the detail is more important than the time. Therefore our day can be your week........So a "Day" is what we hope for but we know it won't happen. Don't pay attention to what's being said but more on what you see being built. The organization of the parts shows that took a number of days to do.

    Approximately how wide is your table? Trying to get a good idea for the size of this roundhouse and determine if I can do something similar in the space I have!

    • @magnushobbychannel4652
      @magnushobbychannel4652 Před 2 lety

      The table is 170 cm wide. That leaves a bit of room on both sides. On one of the sides I have enough for two tracks. As you can see the longer stalls are placed to make width as small as possible.

    I think your "day" estimate isn't realistic. I suspect even the quick and dirty would take a quite some time. I'm looking forward to the project being complete. What location are you modeling? the D&RGW modelers group had an excellent article on the Minturn protype in their last issue.

    • @magnushobbychannel4652
      @magnushobbychannel4652 Před 2 lety

      Yeah a day i probably optimistic but I think I could do it actually, then again, I live in Northern SWeden so right now the days is roughly 20 hours long. :) Almost all the pieces are cut, cleaned and primed in the colour they will have on the layout and even a kit this size contains quite few pieces. It is mostly a large empty shell. I have spent perhaps 50-100 hours preparing the build and there is where the most time is spent. That said, and you might be right and that is not what I'm going for. Plan is to ad details such as workbenches, tools, debris and so on. And ofcourse lights. Just the lights will take days to do. I will check out that article. My plan is to use the B&O as inspiration but not a specific prototype roundhouse. I hope you will follow along and see how it turns out. :)

      @@bobfinkenbiner2539 Haha, well you can not blame me for trying. :) Just be glad I did not say it in june because then the sun never truly set around here. :) It will be a part of an operating railroad. Although it will mostly be a diorama since I rarely run trains. But it 's important that it is a 100% functioning while the visual looks are more important then operating possibilities. This roundhouse just is not a practical thing. :) This is the centerpiece and everything is planned around it. It will be a part of an engine terminal and attached to it there will be a 10 fot or there abouts passenger train shed. I hope I can make decent progress and film it. I plan to start track work today.
