Thats a shame, think we have a couple of other bits in the pipeline to announce in due course. We've got our stand at Telford in a couple of weeks time if you're there. Not sure what we'll have with us yet mind. Al. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted August 10, 2019 Author Share Posted August 10, 2019 Yes, I know, I really MUST get those weathering powders and paints out and make a start. Anyway, I'm sure one of the Rats or a 20 will move this later. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted August 10, 2019 Author Share Posted August 10, 2019 A really good running session this morning, and also I decided to PART UN-WEATHER one of the Rats and the 47. I wanted dirt left where the wash plant wouldn't get to, although the roof of the Rat will need re doing next time I have the kit set up. I need to carefully re do around the numbers as I was afraid of lifting them off. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted August 10, 2019 Author Share Posted August 10, 2019 Plus the Rat (before being Un Weathered) did collect and dispose of the Oil Tank. 11 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnaby Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Andy what is it that you use as ballast "under" the ESSO oil wagon, it looks all dark and most suitable for a work yard. I don't think it was painted after laying down. I haven't read back to your track laying posts I just thought I'd ask. That photo is quite evocative of a working subject, it looks grand. cheers 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly I use Gaugemaster OO and a bit of N Ballast, and add some Woodlands Scenics Fine Ash into a mix. Then I added some more W/S Fine Ash between the Tracks and as required to darken it but not to Black, which the Fine Ash would do if used on it's own. The great thing with the Gaugemaster Ballast is that it's already 2 or 3 colours so it becomes less bland than just the normal one colour Ballast. Hope that helps mate.. 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
