  • This is a great (Part 1) scratch-building tutorial for beginners, with a few tips for the advanced modeler as well. Each step is covered briefly comprised of several parts to paint. This part one covers the basic structure build and positioning a door on the façade.

    Absolutely impeccable work, and Dusty has her paw 🐾 of approval on it and she can’t wait to run some through freights to Chicago!😺awesome!✌️👍

    Also good to see your faithful assistant. I have to believe Dusty is purring the whole time. 😸

      She loves the model train room. She also loves to crawl under all my paint rags. Thank goodness they are completely non-toxic water-based. ;-)

      Dusty was really into it this time. No need to direct her, even though cat's are impossible to direct. ;-)

    When I saw you were free handing the cut for the V groove I about freaked out. I could never get away with that. I need a straight edge to do that. Nice work. Thanks for sharing. Cheers - Larry.

    • @boomerdiorama
      @boomerdiorama  Před 2 lety +1

      I think it's O.K. to freehand a concrete slab in this case since they are kinds rough anyway. Not sure I would in other situations. ;-)

    Another great video. I will have several flats on my layout. Your methods will be of immense benefit. I particularly like how you improved the visual appeal by not making it a perfect rectangle. The angle of the outside walls increase the visual interest.

    • @boomerdiorama
      @boomerdiorama  Před 2 lety

      It was the best I could do with a rather boring flat. Warehouse flats are under-rated and easy to build for the average modeler if they try. ;-) Cheers.

    Hey Boomer. Hello dusty.
    Trying to make the most of the tips you throw at us. Today I visited my local hobby shop and I invested in a range of Tamiya paints.
    Wow. I’m speechless. I’m so used to using Vallejo and the airbrush clogging etc.
    99%ipa and the XF range is incredible.
    I’m a real fan of dessert yellow xf59.
    If I only learn 1 thing it’s been good. 👍🏻

    • @boomerdiorama
      @boomerdiorama  Před 2 lety +1

      As long as you stick to IPA and Tamiya Acrylics, you will never experience another clogged airbrush again. Tamiya has all the ranges you will ever need as well. I mix my own colors all the time. Furthermore, cleaning your airbrush will be a breeze. I just flush mine a few time with IPA and she is good to go. I do a thorough cleaning every six months. ;-)

    Boomer,
    Great video that applies to all scales. I model O scale modern 1995-1998 industrial buildings using plastic skeletons with photos applied over it, see Lance Mindheim techniques. The problem with large scale plastic frames is that they warp when you glue them. Using a birch frame is too heavy. Will try using aluminum.
    Keep the videos coming, please! BTW. My shop steward is a Devon Rex!

    • @boomerdiorama
      @boomerdiorama  Před 2 lety +1

      Thanks for sharing. Your O Scale project sounds great. I have always had a soft spot for O scale. I worked in it quite extensively in the past. Thanks again for taking the time to share though. I love to hear from O scale modelers as well. ;-) Cheers.

    Sorry Dusty, but I think that may be wishful thinking!
    Great video though, it not only provides more technique to all the warehouse builds, but, keeps me moving forward with the inspiration to finish. Sometimes you just need that!

    Totally off topic of your beautiful modeling, but on your turnouts, do you just hand throw or are you running switch machines ??

    • @boomerdiorama
      @boomerdiorama  Před 2 lety +1

      Right now Steven I am "hand-throwing" with the tension of the throw-bar holding the points to the outside rail. The points are hot Wired to bus), so no need for solid contact. Nevertheless, I will be adding remote manual (under the layout) power-routed frog switch machines at a later date. Thanks for asking. Cheers ~ Boomer.

    The only thing that can make a Boomer video any better is a cameo by Dusty.

    Question: Why did you not follow the plywood when you installed the styrene sheet, on the left return (view from the camera)? I am sure you have a good reason for it.

    • @boomerdiorama
      @boomerdiorama  Před 2 lety

      Initially the flat was square. It wasn't until later that I decided to cut it n half and offset the building which resulted in a different angle on the return to the backdrop. Rather than revising the plywood sub-structure, it was easier in terms of production to packed out with plastic to run the side square to the backdrop. I could have left it that way but wanted the alley way to be square.

    Dusty says, "That's crooked, Boomer."

    • @boomerdiorama
      @boomerdiorama  Před 2 lety +1

      She was checking a certain angle for composition. ;-)
