Yesterday I did a bit of weathering on a new Walthers B&O boxcar.

Nice work Jeff, I like the looks of that weathering.

 

[jeffrey-wimberly]

Thanks. I used AIM weathering powders and Valspar Clear Flat. The powders used were dark rust (110-3105), chalky white (110-3101), medium gray (110-3110), light rust (110-3106), dirty yellow (110-3104). Most of the powder disappears when the Clear Flat or any other sealer (including Dull-Cote) is applied so the application has to be a bit heavy to achieve the desired effect.

I just got a new 7500 cubic ft. Woodchip Hopper. I weathered it, and created the load, made from saw dust.

Nice start..... er..... ah.... End to the week guys!

Grampy... just WOW! Corey, I like, very very nice modeling sir! And all the rest 2 thumbs up to you!

About all I got done this week was a pair of saw horses for the engine house. Just a bunch of old (scale) 2 x 4s cut and glued together.

Thanks, Ray. Man, the detail in that building is amazing. That is great modeling. DJ.

Jay, it looks like those guys are riding in style!

Ray, that amount of detail work is on a whole other level than what I'm trying to do. I'm using the three foot rule. You could use the three inch rule for yours. Nice work.
