phil gollin Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 . I hope this hasn't been covered in another thread, but does anyone do a service for producing one-off "chalk-marks" transfers/decals to apply to railway vehicles, anything from a destination chalked on a wagon/carriage to a short message ? I would be especially interested in a company/individual who also did weathering. Thanks. . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwealleans Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 I use a white or pale grey crayon sharpened to as fine a point as I can manage. They don't have to be legible when viewed from a distance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRman Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 A white 'gel' pen has served me in the past. If I don't like the result a moist rag will remove it again. When happy with it, a coat of varnish fixes it permanently. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Gwiwer Posted January 10, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 10, 2013 I have also used the white gel pen technique which can then be over-brushed with a weathering powder of choice to produce a nicely aged appearance. These pens can usually be found with quite fine tips allowing something realistic to be done in 00 and larger scales. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubber Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 There is a white crayon that ladies use to do 'French Manicure' [the white colour under the nail tips] that appears to be a very hard oil-pastel pencil. It will do satisfactory 'squiggles' from an ordinary viewing distance, perhaps your domestic goddess has such a thing? Doug Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
