Well i got the first two new hopper cars in today. more coming. been working on the FP7a getting it to C&O markings. joy at best. lots of no joy. I am having the worst time with the silver paint. It creaps..everywhere!! it will find a rivit pattern and it will follow it. Its what i get for trying a Deco Art Gloss Enamels Silver Multi-surface acrylic paint. it comes out kinda thick so you think it needs to be thinned. bad idea. Anyway, i got one side done and drying. I don't like the look but maybe it will be ok Will see tomorrow. I have a shot of the hoppers I will show a shot of the FP7a but it looks worse than when i just look at it. Not sure what i am going to do with it. I hate to try testers. i will let it dry hard overnight and see how it looks in the morning. Shots below, Smoke
