Ive been spending a little bit of time bent of the workbench with a paintbrush, airbrush, toothpick, microbrush, .... in hand working on weathering some rolling stock and locomotives. Here are some pictures of a couple of the rolling stock completed.
This first set of four pictures is the finished product from a earlier post. It is a Koppers Plastics covered hopper by Bachmann. I attempted to make it a very rust riddled car with most of the hatches having been replaced at some point in its duty. Most of the weathering was done with oil paints and chalk.
These three pictures are of a Micro-Trains Grand Trunk Covered hopper in which I have attempted to create the look of rust forming where the hopper has been badly scratched by something and not repainted, allowing rust to form on the bare metal. A couple of the roof hatches have also been modeled to represent being replaced. On this model I used a mix of acrylic paints, oil paints and chalk.
