Project 09 - Building a Canal

The Canal
By Rob Tossen

Last updated 04 April 2014
When Rob Tossen contacted be and told me he was embarking on building a Canal in linka, I just could not resist asking him if he would share his work for the website and all our members. Thankfully he accepted, so here are the works of Rob and his great Canal project

What an Amazing piece of work !!!


To the left and below we can See Rob hard at work in his fantastic canal project, if you want to see the tips and tricks please see the Painting Workshop Rob is working on.

Building the Canal

here we can see some of the work that Rob has put into this fantastic project, from creating all the fine detail to painting and weathering the whole model and then right down to creating the water effects. 

Rob has not only created this great model but has also created a whole series of painting workshops for the website as well as produced all the articles on weathering techniques - What an amazing project and what a finish.

here are Robs Links to help you achieve results like these.
