Model Making Quick Tip: Realistic Pine Logs

 

Welcome to the first in a new series of model making “quick tips.” In these shorter videos, I can go into a lot more detail about some of my preferred tools, materials, and techniques. In this first one, I give a step-by-step tutorial on one of my favorite methods for modeling pine logs with realistic bark. This technique was essential for builds like my Big Thunder Saloon and the log cabin at Circle D Ranch. It’s also a good start for making foreground trees!

Thanks for watching, amigos!
