craigjm Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Dear RMWebbers,I am a newcomer to Railway Modelling, and so I am practicing techniques. This was originally a green Lima D2785 Diesel Shunter, I wanted to try my hand at giving it a metallic / rust 'look'.I have also added some practice transfers onto the loco, but I did not have an 'R' available in order to complete the GWR logo! I am seeking advice on how to further add rust / which area it is most needed on. I am using the Tamiya weathering powders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Mick Bonwick Posted August 5, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 5, 2015 The best way to find out where to put rust effects, and any other effects if it comes to that, is to refer to a colour photograph of something the same as (or similar to) your subject. Guessing will result in something that looks as if you just guessed where it should go! :-) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
