Glenderg Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Love them all, but the British Columbia is a winner for me. What technique are you using - it's subtle and effective. Richie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murrayec Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Hi NIRCLASS80 Excellent work going on here, the weathering is great, which gives the models real scale!

NIRCLASS80 Posted October 29, 2013 Author Share Posted October 29, 2013 It was a bit of a home made idea. Painted on some Pollyscale Grimy Black Acrylic paint and then quickly rubbed the wagon with computer cleaning wipes (70% IPA)until I was happy with the effect. Then added rust with brown artist oil paint and just added dots here and there and then just rubbed them downwards to get streaks. The bogies were painted grimy black and then a small amount of brown acrylic dabbed on to represent rust. I see I forgot to do the wheels on the BC Rail wagon!!
