i have next to little experience painting models using either a brush or airbrush. i guess it's obvious that the body should be removed from the frame and painted. but it's not clear to me what to do with the drivers a coupling rods.
i recently saw a painted brass steam engine on ebay where the coupling rods on the drivers are painted. is this correct, or should it look like this model?
and it looked like the drivers may have been painted except for an edge along the outside edge. is this appropriate?
also, what would be a starting color, grimmy black?
are their any websites describing how to paint a steam locomotive?
