RMweb Gold Enterprisingwestern Posted December 13, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted December 13, 2013 Not wishing to be hypercritical, but, that coal is far too lumpy for power station coal, needs to more like dust. Mike. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

class"66" Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 Hi Neil The Weathereing look quality mate, what colours or how many colours where used to acheive that look... Keep up with the excellent work. Jamie I used two types of Modelmates rust effects,using cotten bud. Once dry i lightly airbrushed some Humbrol matt 29 light brown over the sides of the wagon.. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdw7300 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Looking really good. Often heavily weathered stock looks a bit naff/unrealistic, but these look spot on. Well done! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob D2 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Nice rust on those, I'd suggest popping the wheels out and painting the sides rust or brown as they look a bit shiny compared with the rest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

daz3359 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hi my friend You do some stunning weathering on all your wagons, a lot of time and effort you have put into those must mount up to several weeks, depending on how many you must do.

daz3359 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hi again my friend Do you sell any of the work you carry out, on the weathering wagons, do you do locos to. DS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz3359 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hi again I was just looking at the many modern liveries there are on your layout, you seem to like your class 37s, Your EWS look super as do your DRS, are those the limited edition Bachmann DRS locomotives from a few years back... I wish I never got rid of mine now, seeing your on here, DS Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
7APT7 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 Hi Neil I agree totally, the DRS are as good as the LTD versions Jamie 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
