Some weathered freight cars for Sweethome Alabama

[Jon Grant 4472]

Taking some time off from making trees for the layout, I decided to build up the fleet of weathered and graffitied freight cars. The first subject/patient on the treatment table is an Illinois Central A406 excess height boxcar, similar to the example below (RR Picture Archives)




The boxcar was weathered down with brown and grey acrylic washes, and the graffiti added in acrylic, applied with a brush.
