Product Review - Troels Kirk DVD - Realistic color for Model Railroading

Greetings,
I just received Troels Kirk's new DVD on realistic color for Model Railroading.

I really enjoyed this video because it takes a different approach towards modeling in that Troels uses broad area painting techniques and an artist approach, which includes the use of basic colors to mimic weathering and realistic modeling. These techniques produce fantastic results.

For those who do not know Troels, he is a danish artist painter, living in southern Sweden. in my opinion, Troels has one of the finest model Railroads on the planet. To view this spectacular work of art go here...

If you want To view the trailer for his DVD....






You can order this DVD from his website.

For the quality of the DVD, his techniques, and overall fresh approach towards modeling I give this product 5 lanterns, great job Troels!
