RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted February 9, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 9, 2013 Andy - a reminder.... You've so much on the go that it's not surprising if you forget: when you get chance - if you and George can "throw together" a scenics video - complete with that humour that characterises all your vids! I can't imagine how your band ever managed to play anything - you two would have had everyone in stitches! Btw, you are NOT a bodger. You've produced too many superb layouts to get it right "by chance"! Jeff 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAY NORWOOD Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Andy The signal box detail is very good and the point rodding is fantastic aswell, allbeit slightly over scale but looks the part. Keep the detailing coming. RAY70B Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted February 9, 2013 Author Share Posted February 9, 2013 Hi all, Bill, I have started the video and will finish it by Sunday night or Monday all being well. Jeff, George and I won't be able to get together for a little while so I may do the vid next week if I can. Ray, Thanks for your comments, as for the Point rodding being over scale, well yes it is, but, so are some other bits and it is better to have it rather than have it barren, Andy.

Andrew P Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 O.K. Guys and Galls, Jeff, (Physicsman) and Jason (Sandside) have asked George and I to do a Scenics Tutorial, unfortunately George can't get down at the moment and I can't get up to Stockport so I have had to do one without his input and humour. We hope you enjoy it and it is just MY WAY of doing things, NOT necessarily the right way of doing things. Andy 14 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aberdare Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Cheers Andy Great solo video there and you keep it and make it look so simple, yet it is so effective. I wouldn't dare slap that much glue about but maybe I shouldn't worry so much. Jim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted February 10, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 10, 2013 Right Andy. You promised me a Spielberg special, in your post on KL. I'm sitting comfortably, let the show (and PVA) begin... Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyb_imp Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 (edited) Another great video Andy, just watched it sat with Mags (my wife) you've certainly given her something to think about, she's sorting a shopping list out now for scenics, that will go with her building shopping list, your costing us a fortune Edited February 10, 2013 by billyb_imp 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
emt_911 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Andy Another excellent demo. Maybe I'm being too careful with everything I do. Duncan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted February 10, 2013 Author Share Posted February 10, 2013 Thanks Guys for your favorable comments on the video, I will post some STILLS tomorrow when it has all dried properly. I noticed that on the Video the wall and lower grass at the end came out BLUE, I can assure you it is NOT REALLY BLUE. Cheers Andy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium southern42 Posted February 10, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 10, 2013 Hi Andy, Look out for static grass on Avago after that video of yours though I think, this week, what grass there is will stand up in shock by itself - when it gets taken to exhibition at the National Slate Museum, Llanberis - first day's forecast? Snow.... We have the stuff to get started, but you know how it is - it doesn't always go to plan. A few tests later, still scratching head... We'll get there...maybe we need to BODGEIT....

Mythocentric Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Another quality production from the Master! The technique reminded me of Henry Cooper's old aftershave advert with his 'splash it on all over' and very effective it is too! Brilliant!!! Many thanks! Bill (Would'nt you know it.

georgeT Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Hello Andy. Clean out of 'popcorn' too, so l sat and watched your latest 'Trebudoc' workshop video with a couple of cans of lager, they did go down well as did your video mate well done, just wondrin' who held your 'clapper' board and made the tea ??

George. Yes I needed to talk to you about the tea making, that was why I needed you there, I had NO SKIVVEY, hahaaaa On a serious note though mate you were really missed, it is not easy doing it on your own BETTER RE PHRASE THAT It is not easy making Videos on your own, when you are trying to focus the camera, hold PVA and do the flock. We should do a series of OUTAKE VIDEOS, like the bit I edited out from yesterdays when I was talking and had NOT NOTICED that the sive was upside down, hahahhaaa I also cut out the swearing bit as well. Cheers Mate, Andy. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Jason T Posted February 11, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 11, 2013 Cheers for taking the time to make that video Andy, it's fantastic. Funnily enough, I was chatting with Chris (2ManySpams) about static grass yesterday and we were both of the same opinion that it is just too uniform and can look a bit daft, but your method adds that randomness that you get.

Cheers Jason, Chris only lives a couple of miles from our Club and I wanted to get him to join as someone with his expertise would be a real asset, but he is so involved with the Stafford Club, BCB, Trengolis and other projects that I don't think he has the time, a great shame.

Andrew P Posted February 11, 2013 Author Share Posted February 11, 2013 (edited) O.K. now the grass from the Video has had time to dry properly here are some stills from this morning. One important point that I forgot to menton in the Video was that when the PVA is dry you will need to vacume up the loose grass, I do this with a sock over the nozzel, I then empty this into a container so as to not only save it, but as it is a mix of grasses from all the different projects it is a good mix to re use. The frist one is the top of the field and you can clearly see the clumps I put in by had have blended in with the static grass. The next two are looking across and you can clearly see the difference in colours and texture, and also the bit of paper grass is shown as a diffent colour Next we come around to the area around the buffer stop. I moved the buffer stop back about 3 inches so as to get another wagon in the siding. this ment that the rear of the buffer had no rail to fix to and so I needed to loose this in the undergroth. I hope that these pics help to show how the finnished area has changes, but not in any dramatic way.

emt_911 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Andy You and George need to do a complete 'box set' of these including stills for the after effects. You'd probably make a fortune (well a couple of quid). Can't wait to see the vids when you do the 2mm stuff. Duncan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
