O, I wish you sold these displays and I wish I was wealthy enough to afford them if you did. I could look at them for hours and hours. Keep it up.

Great job, i will try it for my little sea port !,.......thank you for the inspiration !

Hi Dave, I'm glad you made a youtube channel , this is the video I was talking about on Facebook. This is the most realistic looking water scene I've seen ,and will try your technique on my Milwaukee Road layout hear in the near future. Thank you very much for uploading this video. Dave.

Excellent. Looks so realistic too. Well done.

You are a inspiration to me, and such a talented spirit. I made a diorama for my Christmas village, now I am going to attempt to paint it. I have a train bridge over water, I am going to try and follow your video as I paint my project. Thank you so much could not do this with out you!

That is beautiful. Many thanks for sharing.

absolutely fabulous dave! I'm going to try on my harbor scene!!

Thank you, much appreciated.

Awesome. Gonna try it.

Very nice, thanks for sharing your tricks up your sleave.

Damn brother you are truly talented

excellent done by dave thanks for giving me such brilliant idea😍😍😍😍😍😍😘😗😘😘😘😍😍👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👍👍👍✌✌💐💐💐💐

Thank you!

It had become an automatic to use oil based varnish or two part epoxy for model railroad water. Then came this idea. Good old Hodge Podge does a lot of the same, cheaper without, the fumes. The water based Revolution that Dave was very much a part of. Ahead of his time.

Great

Where can I find the acrylic furniture varnish or a good brand name. Ty

I really like this method but I have to ask how you get the rippled effect. I have applied only two coats so far but don't see any ripples even though I am using the brush to create what I think are little ripples. It seems to dry flat without any ripple texture. Possibly that will come with successive coats but maybe there is something I'm missing.

What happened to your Pennsylvania Railroad layout HO scale?

Hello Dave! I have about four years admiring your work as The Trackside Modeller and be updated with your videos! Your Model Railroad Scenery, which I have, is a indespensible guide for my modest model railroading projects! Since I am a rookie in the hobby, but very interested to learn, I would pleasantly welcome an advice from You in modelling small town with a "port", like the one you do have! But my question really is how did you shape the wooden dowels, in order to look so realistic in your seaport water video and also what kind of materials You used for the docks and retaining walls? Looking forward for Your Resoonse! Robert--

Dave, Your the Man. Looks Incredible. I am getting back into my layout after years of raising 3 Sons. Just curious why you didn’t use resin and what are your thoughts on using Resin for Water instead of 10 coats of mod-podge. Huge Fan !! Thank You.

All it takes is straight modge podge? How frustrating to have bought all those other water specific products. However, now I know. This looks fantastic.

Hello Dave! A couple of weeks ago I posted a comment about track planning software and to find out if You have ever built a "subway station" diorama or maybe a subway layout! When You have a chance, would You post some comment about it?

Wonderful work. One question-what’s the approximate total depth of 10 coats of Mod -Podge? I’m building a float and need to account for this in order for the float to look like it’s really floating.

Hi Dave this Robert again! Hoping to hear from You about my last week request related to weathering built-up structures! And if I can send You a picture of the ones I want to weather! Take Care! Robert

I've tried several of the track planning software packages and hated them all. I find it easier to lay out a track plan full size on large sheets of paper. I've never built a subway - why build a layout that you can't see?

Which acrylic furniture varnish did you use? Thanks!

hi, you mentioned that styrofoam does not play with mod podge well, can I use cardboard instead?

Dave, you don't reply very often, but I'll give it a shot. What can be used if I can't find Gatorboard?

How many mod podge did you need for this

Where can I buy the board?
