  1. Greg,

    Near the top of the page is the grey menu bar. Place your cursor over "Series", and when the drop down appears select "Video Step by Step". You will find the 2nd part there. You may also be interested in David's river scenery work for the Thin Branch, which can be found under "Layouts", and then "Project Railroads".

    Enjoy!

  2. Cody, great scenery construction video, i've got a similar river canyon to work on and your vdeo has been very helpful. BTW, Who painted that backdrop with the very realistic clouds? Very nice.

  3. The video plus series is really a fantastic way to learn how to model scenery in a more professional manner. I've looked at David's 4 part video and found it enlightening and it offers many beneficial recommendations. I've also viewed Cody's "River scenery part 1" but can't seem to find part 2. First and observation & then a couple questions:

    Observation: Dave and Cody both use different coloring techniques for rocks and one must assume that the reason for this it the region they''re modeling.

    Question 1: Is there a good reason for not airbrushing on the diluted India ink solution to get it to flow into deep crevices rather than using a foam brush?

    Question 2: Is there a way the videos can be grouped in sequence on the video plus website rather than being posted in a seemingly random manner? For example, one must search the page to view David's 4 part videos on modeling & scenic work on the Thin Branch Series.
