Scratch-Building & Painting - The Fine Scale Honker Skiff | Boomer Diorama ~ Vlog # 192
Vložit
- čas přidán 26. 08. 2023
- Scratch - building can be cheaper than buying expensive model kits (and photo-etch sets), and we end up with a unique model as well. The Airbrush demo begins here @16:31. This is a special feature tutorial. This model Skiff finishes the railroad scene by the river and is "proof of concept" for building an additional life raft on the 1/87 Scale Tug build.
Initially, I was going to build the skiff and not cover it. On the other hand, there are good lessons in a small palm size model like this for any scratch-built subject. Furthermore, I thought it better to include both parts into one episode for those who requested a longer video. Please Enjoy. Cheers.

The water in the lid idea put me over the edge. But anyway it was time to finally thank you a bit for all your great advises..
Wow! You are awesome! Thank you so much for supporting the channel! Cheers ~ Boomer.😁👍
Now I know how those bears cross the river.
Lol . . . 😁
Man, you are my Master, my Professor and some how a inspiration for future projectos... thanks for your sharing of knowledge 🙏🏻
My pleasure!
Scratch-Building, no, this is Artisan-Building. You're brilliant.
Lol . . . I hope it inspires many to try! Cheers ~ Boomer.
Thanks boomer , great build , an building our technique all in one... Cheers , Hi to Dusty...
Will do to Dusty. Cheers.👍
Dude!!! Superb modelling.....very inspiring.
During the intro montage I saw the outboard and thought "ah, he's scratchbuilt this beautiful boat and found a suitable resin/injection moulded engine to match". Nope! The outboard model is next level mate, especially at this scale 👌
The video work is a huge undertaking in itself - just wanted to say thanks, your channel is an amazingly valuable resource and the techniques and materials you're using are eye opening. Your channel is many, many books worth of material that would take pride of place on any modeller's bookshelf as classics.
Thank you for the graceful compliment. I am glad to hear you enjoyed the content. Cheers ~ Boomer. 👍
great little model. always enjoy and learn from your painting tutorials.
Thank you. It was a fun little build, but also very challenging to my dexterity. 😁
Thank you, such a small boat, but so much to see and to learn, wonderful.
Glad you enjoyed it! Cheers!
Fantastic job, great information as always Not really a boat person but maybe someday I would the larger scale. You are so gifted always a good time watching, give Dusty a pat on the head......
Thank you very much! . . . will do!
That was so much fun to watch! Just a little detail scene, but so much more satisfying than plopping a Woodland Scenics piece down on the beach. Love the wet-on-wet detail weathering, subtle, yet effective. - Paul
It was fun to build and paint for sure. Thank you Paul. Cheers.😁
Great instructions, Love watching your sratch builds.
😁Thank you!
Wow!!!! That little thing looks amazing!!!
It does!
Sorry in German: Dioramas geil, Technik geil, Videos geil und die Katze ist auch süss :-) Bitte weiter so! Bist ein gutes Vorbild im Modellbau! Grüsse aus Hamburg, Grüsse aus Hansyland 🙂
Thank You!
Of all things........ a dad-blamed Mercury!
Welp, aside from that, it is some beautiful modeling you've done there, Boomer. Thank you for sharing. I like that cat. Bet when you talk to him in a high-pitch voice he lets out a meow and flops over on his side with his tail flipping around. I love a good cat..........
Yeah. Dusty . . . She can be lot's of fun at times.😁
Evergreen really should sponsor you.
Fat chance they would when they get it for free. ;-)
Another excellent video!
Such a wonderful detail. Now I want to build the one with the cab! 🙂
It is funny how the little things, tell such great stories.
Yes. The one with the cab is cool as well. Endless options on a hull like this.
Professor, another master class in scale modeling! Thank you for sharing your skill!
So nice of you . . . my pleasure! Cheers ~ Boomer.
that was a fun and helpful video. You're a good teacher
Glad it was helpful!
A brilliant miniature in its own right. Love the weathering on the hull. Cheers
Thanks!😁
Absolutely spectacular!
Many thanks!
Sweet rig. Ive owned 3 tiller boats before i bought my bass boat. My grandpa had a closed bow like that ...great for storage
Thanks. This one also had a sealed well. Not sure if it was effective for floatation though.😉
Brilliant as always
Fun stuff. Thanks!
Thank you for sharing. I always learn something from your videos. And they always work in N scale as well. Thanks again. You should add a rope tying the skiff off to the driftwood like when I was a kid. Just amazing work.
Thanks for watching!
Love it! Superb modeling and instruction, plus the video editing, music and pacing is simply top-notch as well! ✨This one just feels good. Thinking you've really found your stride, Boomer!
Hope you're enjoying the journey as much as we are! 😃
Yes I am! Thank you! I appreciate the encouraging words. Cheers ~ Boomer.😁
Thank you for your all-around quality video production. Like the variety of subjects for your work. Thanks for taking the time and effort to share your passion!
My pleasure!
Hey Boomer! I'm a big fan - I subbed before I finished the first video. Your skills are amazing and your willingness to share the experience and knowledge are first-rate.
One thing I noted in this video: cleaning your airbrush by spraying cleaner through it works well, but you might take a trip to an auto parts store and pick up some absorbent pads called "Pig Mats". They're designed to be used for working on greasy, gassy engines and crap like that. They soak up a great deal of material (think oil change on a Semi truck - lots of spilled oil). Might keep your work surface cleaner and save it from dripping on the floor. I checked one source and the "official" nomenclature is... drum roll please: Spill Control Air Matrix Polypropylene Heavy Weight Maintenance Universal Absorbent Laminated Pad! I'd just ask for "Pig Mats"!
Thanks again for your efforts to educate us heathens - when I make something that turns out good it's usually an accident.
Stay cool, be well, scratch your kitty for me!
That what just a spontaneous demo and not my practice. With video production setting up (and changing) every shot is just too laborious Thanks though. Cheers.
Wow. Always impressed
It was fun! Thank you!😁
You do fantastic work.
Thank you very much!
That was a really informative Vlog!! The outboard build gave me an answer to something I wanted to build, making a silhouette of an object and then add the side bulk, just never thought of that. You had a Vlog on how you cut paint that I watched and learned a great deal on using IPA cut paint and water cut paint and it's application. Thanks Boomer!!
Glad it was helpful!
@@boomerdiorama You can show us fantastic work, but I wonder if you don't practice what you teach. The results will never be the same.
This would be really "exciting" in N scale! 🙃😊
Lol . . . have at her! ;-)
Thanks for the airbrush lecture! That not only explained why you use a higher pressure, but gave me some ideas why some people I know in the model-car hobby prefer lower pressures. Here's my theory of what's going on here -- I'd be curious about your thoughts.
If the main effect of the higher pressure is to atomize the paint into smaller droplets, that has a couple of effects. It's going to mean that you need less paint thickness to get an even coverage, which is especially important for small-scale things, and it also means that you get smoother partial coverage and "fades". But it also means that the paint droplets lose more solvent between the airbrush and the surface, and so I'm guessing that the fact that you use really thin paint and tend to have the airbrush quite close to the model are important in making sure that the paint isn't evaporated to damp dust when it hits the model.
Meanwhile, the model-car folks are trying to get a really even glossy coat on a much larger surface. That means that they have the airbrush much further from the model, and they want to have really good control of how dilute the paint is when it hits the model -- so having larger drops that don't evaporate much is important. That also means that variations in things like distance or in how far the trigger is pulled back don't affect the droplets too much.
I'm guessing that it also matters that your airbrush has a very straight concentric needle, so that even when the orifice is barely open you still have a concentric opening to get even droplets all around. I'd expect that the small openings needed with higher pressures would amplify the effects of bent needles.
The upshot of all that is that it very much is going to be a "try things and figure out what works for you", just because there are so many different factors that affect the results. Which is something I remember you saying a time or two. :)
I rarely ever shoot gloss paint. For car models I simply paint the vehicle flat then clearcoat. Simple really. Super high gloss finish looks out of scale on a small model for me anyway. ;-)
Even your music selection is great. Loving seeing your work Boomer. Appreciate the time you are spending sharing with us. 🙏🏼
My pleasure!

👍😁 Cheers!@@shaunhuckstepp7531
Great informative video as always
Glad you enjoyed it
For anyone looking for a great, quiet contractor's type of oil less diaphragm compressor, check out California Air Tools compressors. I own two of them. A small 1 gallon rig, with a single compressor/piston that's my dedicated airbrushing/paint booth compressor. The other is the 2 gallon dual piston rig that I use in the garage. Both a very quiet (55db and that's a real spec). I can use the airbrushing compressor in the basement at night while everyone is sleeping, without disturbing anyone.
Way quieter than "contractors" pancake compressors or the same in the "hot dog" configuration.
😁
Another video, another session that fills me with awe, wonder, and joy, along with some learning! ;) Thank you.
Awesome! Thank you!
Hi Boomer I was trying to send a message on my phone but it wasn't suppose to come out that way LOL.
Really enjoyed the Vlog , I appreciated the techniques used for air pressures. yea those needles are super delicate only got to blink and you can damage them especially comes time to clean up.
I'm working on an old model I've had since I was a kid it's a Monogram 1950 Ford pickup , learning how to rechrome bumpers and grilles so the airbrush is getting a good run laterly
I also remember when I was a kid having little boats,cars and caravans come in the boxes of Kellogs cornflakes ,needless to say I used to eat a lot of corn flakes they are just the right scale too and I still have them LOL.
Great vlog thanks
I remember those now that you mention them. ;-)
Absolutely amazing what you can do with some pieces of styrene. Thank you for the airbrush refresher, I have a Iwata Neo and was having some issues with spattering. Now I know my pressure may have been to low.
P.S. The motor looks amazing.
Thanks for sharing.
Low pressure and thick paint will under perform in any airbrush.
Wow! What a fantastic build!
Thank you kindly!
good man have your more than deserved like
😅🎉greetings from México bud!!
Wow, thanks!
Thanks
You are awesome Peter! Thank you!
Always a joy to see you and Dusty. Thanks for the video.👍
😁
Interesting discussion on airbrush pressure and paint viscosity. I see the comment about Tamiya XF as a primer. Do you think commercial primer is not required on most models and thinned XF will work in most cases as a primer? If so this opens up a world of colours that can be used to prime models. Thx as always for the great blogs and tutorials. That boat detail is insane!! Growing up in Coastal BC we had one of those wooden Bartender boats with a 50 hp Merc on it. Such fond memories playing "Beachcombers". Thx for the memory rewind
I don't spray primer on my models if I use Acrylic (XF) Tamiya. Especially on small scale models where you can easily obliterate details with extra coats of unnecessary paint. I see no need to primer (over plastic) when Tamiya Acrylic is flat anyway. If the model is metal then primer is a good idea. I see people primer plastic models all the time and I just see it as a waste of paint.
The Bartender (plywood) boats are awesome. Cheers.
Fantastic!
Many thanks Bill!
WOW, some incredible work! VERY talented indeed.
Thank you very much!
Another very cool little detail 😎 I totally agree with your airbrush philosophy 👍
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent work boomer always great to see what your up too. Really bring the diorama to life awesome work. Thanks for sharing Have a great day 🚂👍🏻
Thanks, will do!
Great little boat and very fine details and painting. The wheel jars a little bit since it looks like a small press-stud, and makes it look less realistic ( but that's just my opinion).
Older boats like that were add-hoc . . . ;-)
What a fun little build! I feel these little side scene projects are a must sometimes as a mental break and fun way to try new things. Always enjoy the inspiration! -John
For sure. We need to take breaks and model other subjects as well. Even thought the layout is the long term focus, I like to build other models as well that are not necessarily railroad layout related.😁
Wow - that was a blast Boomer. Was that a transfer/decal you applied to the outboard right at the end?
Yes. It was just some obscure text (to small to discern) from a set of railroad data decals.
I love the old row boat is there any were to find plans to build one like it.
If you can find some back issues of wooden boat. They are full of great plans. Try and google "Flat Bottom" Skiff.
Nice work, but if an airbrush worked with pressure on the same side as the needle would not the paint blow out of the cup when you pressed down on air
No . . . because there is a built in "bleed" hole in the tip that bypasses the orifice until you open the needle. Like I said it's a general description without getting technical. ;-)
@@boomerdiorama their is no air on the paint side of the needle, it works because of the low pressure at the top of the needle siphoning the paint.
Sounds good!@@miker105
Great build, and as always lots of info , many thanks for taking the time to share this info with us …….. would have loved to see the initial steps in building the hull , in bigger scales I would have built it over a former / hull sections but sort of guessing you might have winged it by first doing the bottom panels , adding bow , stern and maybe a midships section ?, then the sides ?
do you like the art of Piet Mondrian? i see his influence in the composition of your scenes...
Yes. He was a brilliant 20th Century impressionist painter who turned minimalist in the end. I try to bring an impressionist style influenced by 20th century painters & photographers like Edward Hopper (Painter) & Ansel Adams (Photographer).
your Hopper "nighthawks" is brilliant...(from a fellow 3d artist)@@boomerdiorama
Thank you!@@davestohl9477
Damn! Now all the Evinrude fanboys will be pissed ! LOL
Lol . . . It just happened to be a Merc ;-)
Hi all I'm from South Africa and just want to find out where is the best pkace to by pcb ties thanks all.

Thanks for the lecture, Boomer. Remember, it's only your loss, our gain.
I don't loose anything . . . lol. I gain an awesome layout for all my hard work. ;-)
