Your drawing is so amazing. You have talent, Mr. Jensen.
Thank you so very much Luc!!! I really appreciate it!! 👍
Yes! right way to start the day ! :)))
Thanks David!!! I appreciate it!
Id love to own one of those artworks from your book ! Commented many times on your videos and always get excited at every new video, keep the great work up jason so inspiring to all us modellers 😎
Just wow!
Thank you so much Brett!!!
Boy, did you give me some ideas not only for bridge abutments but also retaining walls ... and I just came home with 5 sheets of different thicknesses of pink foam from Home Depot!!! Thanks Jason!!
Happy modeling Donald!!!
Jason your talent has been so very enjoyable. Believe it or not, we get as excited as you do everytime you pop up with a new idea. You have given pleasure to at least 30,000 people. No matter what happens you will always have that , can't be taken away. Thank Him every day for your great talent and your ability to share it. We all do.
I actually use that "cocoon"paint and have gotten compliments on it and I didn't even weather or rust up anything yet. THANK YOU!!
Thank you so very much Bob!!! I truly appreciate the kind words! Thanks for watching and happy modeling Bob!
Really looking good. You make it look easy. Great videos
looking so good thanks man
Thank you so much Joe!!!
I love the bridge but your sketches are AWESOME!!!!
Thank you so very much!!! I really appreciate it!
Love this episode. It’s fun to tour your city. It reminds me of the Interbay-Ballard fishing district of old Seattle. I really can imagine families growing up there because my dad grew up among the wharves and docks of Puget Sound’s villages along the water. I guess all it needs in my mind to round out the Depression Era feeling of your beloved town, is to have some bright spots mixed within the gloom. The sun did shine there sometimes, even during hard times. Maybe a scene of kids fishing along a pier or swimming in a shady pool of non-industrial water. You will come up with something, Jason, because you’ve got everything else to make your town come alive!
Thank you so very much Bonnie!!! I truly appreciate it! And thanks for watching!
A very nice update and the bridge with its surroundings has become fantastic. A nice weekend and greetings - Tino
Thank you so very much!!! I always appreciate it my friend!!! 👍
Great sketches Jason.
Brilliant!
Thank you so much!!!
You give me a chuckle. Your like a 7 year old Christmas morning, "this is so exciting".
LOL!!! I know , I just get so excited about modeling! Thanks for watching! 👍
Fabulous work!!
Yay! Bridge time! ;-) Love what you've done with the girder bridge. Looks better upside down as a support structure than it did the right way up! The thought process is so clear when you have the buildings ready to go in - not that you don't have hundreds still to build! Cheers
Thank you so much Davie, I really appreciate it!!! And thanks for watching! 👍
I looked at your video to give me an idea of how to build a long bridge and view a master artist at work. You abilities and vision is so far above anything I have seen. Truely amazing!
Absolutely fantastic Jason your imagination and vision into the future of how you see an area and build accordingly 🤝
Thank you so much Bernard!!! I am having so much fun! Thanks for watching! 👍
Cool stuff.
Thank you so much!!! 👍
When you show your foam blocking in of a space I try to envision what I would do to it. I thought your bridge looked excellent and then you added the trash underneath it and it really took the realism to 11, awesome work as always!
Thank you so very much Drake!!! 👍
Hi Jason, it is a amazing drawing an a amazing railroad bridge, 🤩🤩. Many greetings Thomas 👍🚂👍🚂
Thank you so much Thomas!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍

Gotta say. I'm sold. Looks like concrete.
The rusty leakage under the iron bridge frame is pure art Jason. Greetings from Milan, Italy
Thank you so very much Davide!!! I always appreciate it! 👍
Jason, your tips and techniques on layering with dry-brushing and washes is gold. The bridge scene looks great!
Thank you so very much Greg!!! 👍

Those sketches would make great merch
Thank you so much!!!
Excellent
Thank you so much!!!
Jason,I hope you were having as much fun as I was. That was great! Man you can Doodle with the best dude. I learn so many little things from you,you are great.,Troy.
Thank you so very much Troy!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍
Another satisfying build looks brilliant with all the stuff dumped on the rocks and I see there's a whole load of space just waiting for more structures. As always thanks for sharing 🚂😁👍
Thank you so much Alex!!! I’m having so much fun! Thanks for watching!!! 👍
Yet another fantastic area of your layout. Your work is amazing as well as educational and inspiring. If my work turns out half as good I'll be over the moon. Coming to grips with planning, patience and persistence I have learned is the key to success with modelling. Thanks so much for sharing your work.
Thank you so much Jim for the kind words!!! I really appreciate it and thanks for watching!!!
Hi ya Jason. “ Let’s make a bridge “ AND SO MUCH MORE! The bridge build is just a sliver of all that went on in this update. The end result for that section is really stunning. Very exciting. I very much look forward to your next update. Off topic a bit. I would bet dollars to donuts that many of your loyal fans would love to purchase a limited edition print from “ Jason’s sketch book.” Just a thought. Take care. See ya next time.
Always great to hear from you Norman!!! Some day when I get a website built for the kits I hope to start selling I will have a section on it for my art prints. Not enough hours in the day, lol. But I’m working on it! 👍
Drawings are incredible and the scene is phenomenal!
Nice job on the bridge and rocky outcropping under the bridge. Hal
Jason that art is looking like some of the new jam band show posters that have been coming out, super clean!
Thank you so much!!! I wish I had more free time to draw. Thanks for watching! 👍
Wow that is some crazy detail work!
Thanks Jason for share your knowledge. Sketches are spectacular .
Cesar
Thank you so much Cesar!!! I always appreciate it! 👍
Wow your talent is so multifaceted! Brilliant!
Another fantastic episode, Jason! Your enthusiasm for what you do and the joy you display is seriously contagious. :) The new bridge section and groundwork with assorted scattered junk is a thing of beauty and so too is your sketchbook. Wow! I look forward to seeing your incredible layout continue to grow even more amazing with each new episode!
Thank you so very much John!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
beautiful sketches, wow
Thank you so much Ron!!! I really appreciate it!
Jason, you're very talented, my friend. I've watched all your videos over the past few years and thought I had you all figured out... And then... You suprise us with a whole new side of you with your tablet of drawings/paintings... Truly an artist in the modeling scene. Keep it up 👍
Thank you so much for the kind words!!! And thank you for your continued support! I truly appreciate it!!! 👍
Quite AWESOME Jason! That bridge area is my favorite. Eye catching! And, everything flows so well to the next "scene"...so many railroaders forget about that aspect.
Great job, again!
Thank you so very much!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
Omg!!! Your so called “sketches” are absolutely amazing!!! You should make your own little diagrams adventure book with your drawings! Your talent is incredible 🙌🏽
Thank you so much Anissa!!! I really appreciate it!
Beautiful as ever. It's very enjoyable watching the progress of the layout.
Thank you so much!!! Glad to have you along for the journey! 👍
Such a fantastic and inspired job!
Thank you so much Phil!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
This is an awesome scene with so much detail.
Thank you so much!!! And thanks for watching! 👍
Might as well comment on this, Chalk-finish paint, which is different from chalkboard paint, is a latex paint that has a fine powder added to the mix that creates a unique matte finish. The brushstrokes and imperfections become part of the unique look. Good video.
Thanks for sharing that explanation of chalk paint! And thanks for watching the video Mark, I truly appreciate it!!!
Finally someone I can follow along with ,thank you
Thanks for watching Robert!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍
You should frame some of those sketches. I bet you could even have them published to sell as art. Great stuff Jason! Tim
Thank you so much Tim!!!
I love bridges..thanks for sharing and keep up the great work.. Lance
Thank you so much Lance!!! 👍
Dear Jason, You have done sooooo much to get me through tough times. You've taught me so much. I want to honor you by doing a Billboard to you on my layout. What I need is a "HO" size picture of you, or a way to produce that. Thank you for all the help, and support. Patrick Bashara.
Amazing as always!
Thank you so much Keith!!! I really appreciate it!
inspiration plus!!! Love the bridge and how you made the supports.
Thank you so very much!!! And thanks for watching! 👍
GREAT bridge, Jason! I should learn to trust you...
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!! 👍
Your videos are awesome and your tips are absolutely valuable👍👍👍👍
Thank you so very much Martin!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
For constant airflow I have two ceiling fans in my train room, and you do have a point constant airflow
Jason,
I truly enjoy watching your artistic and creative work and I have picked up so much in my short period of time modeling and watching you…specifically for my O Scale layout. Your guidance helped me finish the corrugated roof on my engine shed that turned out just amazing. Thanks again! Your talents are amazing and cheers to a cup of coffee. Jim
Thank you so very much!!! I truly appreciate it! Have fun working on your O scale layout and thanks for watching! Cheers ☕️
Great work as always. However, the reason that truck ended up underneath the bridge is a story that needs to be told.
Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate it! I will be sure to add a story. I plan to have a broken chain link fence at the top. I will also include signs that say “Do not dump trash” . Thanks for watching!
"That's the fun of it". It sure is, and great news about the 30k subs. Well done Jason, mate.
Thank you so very much Chazzy!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
Love your videos, working away on this bridge and then.....SQUIRREL!
LOL!!! I know, that’s how I am,lol! Thanks for watching!!! 👍
One more WOW!!
Thank you so much Richard!!!
Hello Jason
Still a great decor, but in good French I'm not sure I'm eating oysters near so much trash, rubbish!
I am amazed at how you turn old toys into brand new bridges!!! Keep save.
Thank you so much Michael!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
OMG!!! Its amazing how much talent you have... From a drawing to a complete scene, simply breath taking... A true inspiration to all of us!!! I can only imagine how much drugs it took for a vehicule to end up down there 🤪😖🥴🥴... 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you so very much!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍
Hermoso e inspirativo trabajo de Modelismo, descargo cada vídeo que sube y cada video es una motivación para reconstruir mi maqueta que el terremoto del 2010 me destruyó, yo que la encontraba tan pequeña mi maqueta, viendo su maqueta me demostró que distribuyendo bien los espacios, es inmensa, lo felicito amigo Jason, desde Santiago de Chile, un abrazo a travez de la distancia, felicitaciones. Bendiciones Para Usted Y Su Familia
Thanks for the vid.
Your welcome! Thanks for watching!!!
Hello Jason, what you are doing is great and it looks very good. It's the kind of modelbuilding that i like!
But: i am from a construction company and i am missing the concrete joints! The walls are much to long. And you can show in the old concrete walls some holes with rusty iron in it. May be you take a look to real concrete walls you will find lot's of joints, vertical and horizontal.
Happy modeling, Manfred😉😀
Thank you so much for the suggestion and thanks for watching!!! I really appreciate it!
@@JasonJensenTrains sehr gerne 😀
Very gladly 😃😃😂😂
Great art work. You could illustrate books no problem.
Thank you so much John!!!
Sir Jason you are hands the best of ever seen with building this stuff im currently going through a bad spot in life so for me to watch your channel lets me drift away into amazement and foget for a moment the hell in my life right now so thank you ever so much you're a knight in this business and happiness and shine that is felt from you is absolutely refreshing brother bless you sir
😎🙏

Drawings, sketches are fantastic for a record of builds.. Happy modeling
Thank you so very much Ed!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍
Looks really great Jason👍🏻 I like it that you are working on the landscape. its starting to look great.👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so very much Hans!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
You should sell those drawings, they are really good! Etsy would probably be a good place! Nice construction of your train town, I wish I had the time and space to have one!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it!!! And thanks for watching! 👍
Jason, Wow, your sketches are awesome.
Great bridge, and the gully under it. The scene looks sooooo realistic.
Cheers, and thans for sharing. Keep safe, Michael
Thank you so very much Michael!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍
Wow Jason, that was a lot of work. The fun kind of work! I really like how you remember how things look and translate that into your version, er, vision (both really!) of things and stuff and life. From your amazing buildings to the junk and weeds, everything exudes it's own character. Thank you for inspiring me to go the extra mile and make my layout really mine!
PS: I can't wait to see a train cross that bridge!
Thank you so much Michael!!! I’m having so much fun working on it! Thanks for watching! 👍
Always enjoy your content I've used your tips and techniques on my models/dioramas and the reults are wonderfull. Keep the good videos coming and thank you for sharing your time and talent with us.👍
Thank you so much for the kind words!!! I really appreciate it!
Congratulations on 3O,000 subscribers!! I have been watching for two years and look forward to each new video. Bridge and water run off look great.
Thank you so very much Chris!!! I really appreciate you being with me on this journey! I’m having so much fun building this layout and sharing it with everyone! Thanks for watching!
Amazing Video, Jason! Love it
Thank you so very much Martin!!!
@@JasonJensenTrains u are welcome, Jason!
Wow, your sketches are great! The bridge came out awesome!
It's going to be really neat to see as you build out the land for the buildings and blend it all together as you do so well.
Thank you so very much Roy!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
Love to see the progress! I like shorter, more frequent videos (like once a week) rather than longer ones less often.
Thank you so much Rich!!! I truly appreciate it! 👍
Best thing on youtube today🤘
Thank you so very much!!! I really appreciate it!
Looking good.. I was thinking that you were going to be adding a layer of clear resin as water, but it looks like you won't be
He could do the airbrush technique as Boomer Dioramas did on his River Road layout.
Thank you so much Scott!!! I will wait on the water until I get more of the layout finished. Thanks for watching!
I could have watched a separate video of all of those sketches, the few that were shown are superb.
Wow, thank you so much!!! I really appreciate it! 👍
Jason your work is absolutely amazing and your videos are so inspirational. You have such a calm demeanor and your instructions are very clear. You must have great time management skills I don’t know how you manage working on both your layouts simultaneously. Question - I love the abandoned truck and castings, can you share with us where you purchased them.
Thank you so very much Mario!!! I truly appreciate it! The old truck is made by Jordan which unfortunately is no longer in business. You may find some on eBay. Thanks for watching! 👍
Your sketches are great!!! You should post some of those on instagram.
Thank you so much Scott!!! 👍
So cool. I have used that chalk paint but when I do any wash, no matter how thin, it tends to dissolve the chalk paint. I like it but I need to work with it more to prevent it washing away. I also see a mistake I’m making. I didn’t start with a darker base color.
Just for info and update, I’ve separated my layout and built the shipping crate. I’ll be moving and shipping everything to the Philippines in June. I’m sure I’ll have lots of repairs to make on the layout. But rest assured, I’ll be watching your channel more when I get settled.
Thank you so very much Gene!!! Good luck with the move and hope the layout survives the trip with minimal damage. Thanks for watching!!! 👍
I love the buildings! Have you tried splattering by blowing air onto the paint brush with an airbrush?
Thank you so much!!! I’ll give that a try 👍
Thinned out India ink used as a wash might enhance your cracks in the concrete.
Thanks Paul and thanks for watching!!!
Hi Jason. Thanks for your channel and the time it takes. I’m learnIng quite a bit. Is there another video showing how you weathered the concrete walls with cracks and chips? Thanks again and thanks for the blues…
Thank you so much Mark!!! I love the blues! The video right before this one shows me installing and carving the foam.
Great video thank you! Its a shame your towns people don't know how to paint and update their property. btw your an amazing 🎨artist. Lol
LOL, Thank you so much!!! 👍
Great video You're super talented question what do you do for a living
Thank you so much Albert!!! I’m a freelance artist. Thanks for watching!!!
Thanks th video
Love it, where do you get the buildings from? Like the oyster shack etc
Love this video. One note on the drainage pipes wouldn’t you want the inter bottom of pipe to be dark from drainage. Just a thought. Love your work!
Thank you so much Steve!!! Stay tuned for more work to be done.
Great video, congrats on 31k viewers, What are the light weight casting made from?
Thank you so very much John!!! I really appreciate it! Most of the casting are white metal.
You ought to make a drawing and sketching video Jason. Your drawings were really fantastic! 😉
Thank you so much Nick!!! You may want to check out my video called “Combining art work and model railroading”. Thank you so much for watching! 👍
@@JasonJensenTrains I most certainly will… Keep up the great work 🙂
@@JasonJensenTrains Aah, now I see where the artistic skill set comes from. Beautiful work Sir! 👍🏻
Great artwork. Do you draw from ideas or do you use photos. Or do you use a combination of both thoughts and photos. Now I see why your models and color choices are extremely fitting for the scene.
Thank you so much!!! I’m a freelance artist. That’s my day job! Thanks for watching! I really appreciate it!!!
