Just finished this one. It's an old Balboa Mk-5 that I added some details to, and swapped the tender out for a larger one. Needs debugged a little but the heavy work is all done

Please post pictures when you do. I have a Big Boy that needs weathering and I've never done a steam engine. Thanks Alan
Jerome, do you ever watch Trainmasters TV? Check them out. Sometimes they have 99 cents sales and you can binge watch for a day. I did a three show segment on weathering steam, one of those is this Challenger. I do the job in real time on the show. This was done from a photo. It took about 30-45 minutes.
