    I am really trying to reduce the number of cars I pick up as I have more than enough to keep me busy weathering… Though I did pick up this Walthers covered hopper.. I think the trucks should be yellow..

    First Graffiti attempt.

I believe the decal should have gone down on a white background…or had white backing I had a transparent decal the only time I did graffiti I used the decal paper cutout...
