I experimented with a couple of new mediums this weekend. I tried some Tamiya panel line accenter. I could probably make my own if I experimented enough to get the ratio right, but it's really nice the way their stuff creeps down the panel line. I also tried water color pencils. They are a little tricky, but effective. You can draw on the surface then work the paint in with water, or do what I did, take a very fine brush, wet it, and touch it to the pencil point to pick up color to apply. This one works better for me.
Here's the Tamiya accenter:

This car is an el-cheapo Bachmann. I used to use these in airbrush classes. It's had the coupler and wheel treatment, trucks painted, flat coated, a wash of 20% weathered black, a coat of Paynes Gray extra dark Pan Pastel, and the water color pencil for the rust streaks. Not perfect but the techniques are good ones I think!
