This workshop covers many aspects of using an airbrush for weathering model railways, from choosing appropriate equipment to applying the correct materials with relevant techniques. If you don’t already have an airbrush, we can loan you an Iwata (with compressor and spray booth) to use while you’re with us. The workshop provides a useful opportunity to try airbrushing before making a purchase.

This workshop concentrates on hand-finishing techniques that can be employed to complement airbrush work or to use as stand-alone weathering treatments. It is an opportunity to try out and compare several tools and materials, all supplied for your use, although you can bring your own if you have already chosen some.
