CCGWR Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 Hi All, I thought I would start a thread detailing the happenings of my weathering. I have recently started a business known as 'CC Weathering Services,' the website can be checked out by clicking on the tab in my signature bar. The latest project was a HO NSWGR C36 class. A bit challenging to find a reference photograph as they all had a Belpaire firebox and were painted black by the time colour photos of them were around. Before: Front View Before: Side view After: Front View After: Side View After: Top view, note I made sure the coal was diminished slightly. I also did my first Respray recently- a GWR 4575 class as we had two of the same model and as we don't have too many GWR Wartime black locos I thought I would paint it into that colour. As can be expected from a first attempt there are a few rough edges but from a normal layout viewing distance they aren't too noticeable. Before: 5513, the extra was repainted to: After: 5533, I'm not sure if this loco ever appeared in black but on my layout it will. Obviously a few rough edges but it will do for me. Hope you enjoy and there should be more stuff put up in the future. Regards Connor 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazmanjack Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Very nice weathering on the C36 Class. The GWR 4575 came up nice with the repaint. Cheers, Gary. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium St Enodoc Posted April 6, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 6, 2019 You are Connor from South Australia and I claim my $5... Seriously, with regard to the C36 does the preserved 3642 not help with the colours? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did have a look at 3642 and it did help a little, especially the tender with the bunker and so on but they still keep 3642 cleaner than my 3635.

These photos will eventually be included into the website as the background allows a better contrast but I have more locos to do at the moment. Keep your eyes posted on this page for more soon!
