Another weathered car experiment




I think the bleeding rust spot came out much better on this car. I think this is a keeper too, now all I need to do is replace the trucks and couplers.

First attempt at weathering




My first attempt at weathering. I was inspired after watching the Mike Rose DVD I picked up at Springfield, and then I found Big Al Mayo on YouTube. I also played around with modernizing the thing. Removed the roof walk, and moved the brake wheel down. I have another car that I am experimenting with removing the ladders, etc. We'll see how that turns out.
