Doing scenery at the moment (...and it's messy ) Cheers Main line to "La Chine Yard" Re: A few pics from my layout - MLW - 12-21-2008 Same location (before I installed the fascia..) Heavily weathered ex-CN 40" Boxcar... I have since applied reporting mark and car # Re: A few pics from my layout - MLW - 12-21-2008 ...and some more weathered cars These cars do have reporting marks and car numbers now... Re: A few pics from my layout - MLW - 12-21-2008 The Brewery in Chambly.. The "west-end" of Chambly Will post more pics during the hollidays Re: A few pics from my layout - tetters - 12-21-2008 Thats some fantatic weathering on those cars. I'd love to see more of your layout plus some ideas on how you achieved the weathering effects. Re: A few pics from my layout - RobL - 12-21-2008 I second that! Weathering is absolutely gorgeous! If you wouldn't mind sharing your secrets, I'd love to learn! Your layout has a very "real" look and feel to it... with the weathering of your rolling stock as well as the backdrop and scenic details, it looks like a picture that was taken roadside in the "real world" versus a model railroad layout... awesome job... I can only hope my work comes out half as good! --Rob. Re: A few pics from my layout - Trucklover - 12-21-2008 with both of them, the weathering is beautifully done You have a nice layout, and i would love to see some more pics Re: A few pics from my layout - Dan85 - 12-21-2008 Nice work, weathering looks awesome! Definitely would like to see more pictures too! - Dan Re: A few pics from my layout - LynnB - 12-21-2008 Great weathering job and may I be the first to nominate you for a car weathering How Too thread topic. Re: A few pics from my layout - MLW - 12-21-2008 Thanks guys :oops: Will post more pics later this week hopefully. I've included a quick tutorial on weathering on my website. I could reproduced it here (cut & paste) if you wish. Thanks again Re: A few pics from my layout - iis612 - 12-22-2008 That is absolutely beautiful work!! Matt Re: A few pics from my layout - Ralph - 12-22-2008 Excellent pics! Thanks!!! I think we'd really appreciate it if you'd cut and paste your weathering tips. Beautiful effects! That last picture of the three white box cars looked so much like a prototype shot i had to look twice. Ralph Re: A few pics from my layout - LynnB - 12-22-2008 Nice bit of weathering how to on your site , your rust effects are great. Re: A few pics from my layout - fsm1000 - 12-23-2008 Ok so I am looking at the pics at first and thinking "Ok nice pics but this is a MODEL RR site not prototype". Then as I scroll down I notice they ARE models. Sheesh guy you can give some of us a complex LOL Thats is great stuff you have there. Re: A few pics from my layout - tetters - 12-23-2008 MLW Wrote:Thanks guys :oops: I followed the link to both of your web pages. Nice work indeed. If you could share how you get the peeling paint rusted effect that would be super cool. I assume you use a cosmetic brush to dab it on. Is it a combination of paints and weathering powders? It is a really nice effect. |
