  • This video is a detailed guide how to ballast model railroad tracks. The presented techniques spans from really "quick and easy" without use of airbrush, to very advanced multi-layer technique cobblestone with weather broken asphalt overlay.
    "Best of ballasting"
    Some of the techniques in this video has previously been presented as a part of video tutorials on other topics, or previously presented alone, but in this video been revised with improved techniques. My intention is to provide an up-to-date inspirational "one-stop-shop" video for viewers searching for how to ballast H0-scale tracks.

    This video was randomly on my recommendation..don't know why? I've never built a train set in my life never mind a 3D world to accompany 1..after watching this video I'm interested :-)

      Model/toy Trains are allways fun!!!! I allways find the bigger sizes like 0 Guage to be the most fun! But they can be costly. So do what you will. But model trains are super fun go try it!

    The red cobblestone reminds me in my childhood growing up in Bronx, New York. It also in a Walthers cobblestone red brick street scene. Ahhh wonderful 📹 video ☺

    Hi Mark. Incredible work, you have a great talent. Thank you for your great videos. They are very informative and you provide great ideas. I am modeling my O scale set after the Cass Scenic RR. I am using Ross track which I weather the ties by scraping with an X-acto knife, then used acrylic paints and washes. The rails were painted with burnt umber solid, then misted with rust using an air brush both times. The MIG acrylic asphalt you mentioned is brilliant which I will be adding to my track modeling the grease streaks the Shay locomotives leave on the track. Thank you for all the great ideas and inspiration for my set!
