Oh yes! after an evening of scratching out the grooves between the boards on the decks of those flat cars in my self imposed search for greater effect, I'm aching from fingers to everywhere and the eyes feel like they're being sucked out. I tried soaking the factory paint off them to get down to the gray plastic, but found that in fact, the extra thickness of the factory paint was an advantage in achieving what I wanted and left a rougher edge to them.I'm starting to remember why I am reluctant to work on the detail stuff here.
