"How-To" Videos

I suppose that I were to stop all that I am doing I could put together a few videos of how to do this and how to do that. But, why reinvent the wheel. Besides, I know that it is important to know and understand and use other modeler's techniques in order to become a really good modeler myself. Which is why we now offer to you what I feel are some of the best constructed & well thought out videos on the market. I highly recommend that you consider each of these videos from Darryl Huffman & Scott Mason for a diversified breadth of knowledge that is very easy to follow and understand. I expect that you will watch each video over and over again. Just be sure to get yourself a notepad with plenty of paper because you will be taking a plethora of notes! Doctor Ben's gives these videos "5 Rusty Cans" (we don't do stars).

Easy Backdrop Painting - Mountains and Valleys by Darryl Huffman
This new, easy to follow 90 minute video, is designed to help the beginner and experienced painter as well. This video was produced in response to the countless questions about how the backdrops were painted on Darryl's layouts. This full color video features step-by-step instructions and demonstrations of two types of backdrop scenes---mountains and valleys.
The video discusses specific paints to use, the types of brushes needed, ideas about how to use perspective, and, of course, the actual backdrop paintings themselves.

Mountains

The first half of the new video is devoted to painting this range of mountains. Additionally, the video was planned to show how to incorporate a new section of backdrop paintings into earlier paintings. This is very valuable for anyone who is expanding their layout. How to blend sky colors, provide a feeling of distance in a backdrop, size and composition of mountain scenes, as well as providing highlights to the mountains are all covered.

& Valleys

Beginning with a simple sky color, you follow along as the distant mountains are developed. See how additional hills on the sides of the valley are painted to provide a feeling of depth in the scene. Finally, easy directions on how to paint three types of trees.

The scene at the right is from the video. It is explained and demonstrated in approximately 45 minutes--the actual time spent painting this valley scene.
