Happy New Year everyone and thanks for stopping by. First time painting a wood kit and I understand why people really like them. I'm working on an iITLA N scale Olympia tool and die laser cut wood kit and I think this is going to be a lot of fun.

Tonight I'm hanging out with Kris and Mark for GVO After Dark.
We start at 7:55pm. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpkhK...
The holiday season is fast approaching and we're going to chat about what's on our wish list, and wheather we've been naughty or nice.

Just wrapped up the latest episode of A Modeler’s Life featuring my friend Wayman (aka Pro Scale Models). Such a fun listen, and really cool to hear the backstory you never see on camera. Highly recommend checking it out! ‪@ProScaleModels‬

Thanks for joining me on the live stream tonight! I messed around with a pair of trash gondolas and weathered them with reckless abandoned 🙂

There were so many good comments in the chat and it was a ton of fun to make a bunch of mistakes together. Happy Friday everybody!

Thanks for stopping by the live stream tonight. This evening we painted, weathered, and added graffiti to 3 ft of the retaining wall on the layout. Only 25 ft to go!

Thanks to everyone who tuned in tonight! My first time using paper mache, Celluclay, for scenery work - I think it's great.

I still need to learn about its drying time and how it behaves once it's cured, but in the meantime it was definitely a step up from the old plaster.

A beautifully articulated, non-confrontational video that gently reminds us to be more mindful in how we engage with the hobby. Sharing any modeling effort takes courage, and as an audience we should remember to celebrate the effort just as much as the outcome.

Hey folks! Life’s a little wild and the clocks aren’t giving us any extra hours, so Kris over at ‪@GoViaorgohome‬ and I decided to shake things up. We’re pulling a full-on Third-Rail-Thursday switcheroo!

This Thursday, September 4th, Kris will be broadcasting live from the legendary GVO dungeon.
Then next Thursday, September 11th, I’ll be streaming straight out of my cozy basement bunker.

Mark your calendars, grab your snacks, and come hang out! We promise this switcheroo will be worth it!

My friend Kris has been rebuilding his layout after moving, and in less than a year he’s already making huge progress. What I love is how he shows the real process — sometimes changing plans and starting over. If you want to see how to squeeze a full layout into a tricky space (and build it fast), check out this video and his past ones for inspiration.
