Three more grain cars in the works. Trucks, underside, and sides weathered. Sides are done in powders and sealed. Next will be some airbrush blending.
Nicely doneSome airbrush burnt umber and desert brown to blend to give it that milage look. View attachment 205738
Those look very convincing to me.Three more grain cars in the works. Trucks, underside, and sides weathered. Sides are done in powders and sealed. Next will be some airbrush blending.View attachment 205735

Thank you.Those look very convincing to me.
I know it’s not much and I rarely show these type of in process pictures. But the roof walks look terribly over weathered considering what David asked for. These will dry out to (90% certain) to what I want before moving on. Experience tells me this will be fine. So figure out your process and trust it! Besides if you or someone else doesn’t like it, you can easily remove it before it’s clear coated

Yes. But, I haven’t been home today until about 1 hour ago. So, I haven’t checked the weathering shelves to see how they turned out.Is there any chance we see any post-drying photos to see the change in appearance you describe?
Interesting as I have never seen a green spring before, good catchSomething different, green replacement springs. I wonder if it's the manufacture or determines the load/tension of the springs.View attachment 207077
The front truck wasn't replaced, not sure what was going on.I kinda wonder about the green springs - that green pretty much matches the green in the tag? And on top of those springs - that framework/bar is also painted; just on the edge. Oh well, still makes it unique though.

Probably never know! I intend to paint up the next personal unit I weather using blue. It’s different and now I have a prototypes picture of it. We will see how many folks catch it at a operating sessionThe front truck wasn't replaced, not sure what was going on.
I’d agree with this.when i look at this picture, i guess the tagger had some little fun there with the spring![]()
