months ago I found some pics of a weathered model of a covered hopper.
I have the same Life Like P2K model and i had the wish to weather my model the same way.
The basis model:

two weeks ago I started the weathering wit sep 1 - painting rust with oil color:

today the oil paint was dry enough to do step 2:

Next step will be a light white/grayish wash to break the luminosity of the colors.
