Nice weathering  - it looks well on the Hunslet but I'm really drawn to the containers and flats!

Same. The flats and the containers are my favourites.

Popeye, your Hunslet is a lesson in livery and weathering artistry of realism!

IRM H VAN

I got a set of IRM H vans and wanted to have a go at weathering them.

The upper body was done only with weathering powders and the underframe

was done with enamel paint.

Subtle weathering but convincingly grubby. Those are perfect Patrick.

New Projects.

Some items that I have been weathering.

3 containers  1 x Dapol Cosco, 1 x Evergreen hand painted and 1 x Bachmann Consent.

Hornby 75 Ton crane, the chains have been replaced with string since.

Hornby TTA oil wagons, repainted, new transfers and weathered.

Excellent. It's amazing how the weathering on the tankers has transformed them from a toy to a convincing model.

Its like chalk and cheese .. that last picture really does look like two different models. Lovely weathering!

Inspirational! Excellent weathering, as always.

Hornby Hand Crane.

These are old with black base and red or yellow crane.

I have painted the whole thing grey and then weathered it.

Removed the oversized chains and replaced with 0.5mm string.

Little metal hand cranks have also been added.
