atsf gp 7 weathering please advice
Posted by stefanuccio on Thursday, June 26, 2014 8:49 PM

i all

i am trying to weather my atsf gp7 more or less like this one in the pichttp://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=49145

i am only try to get a generally  light white dusty appearence

 i started with a bit more  dust on the boogies a bit less on the sides and again a bit less on the front/end cabin and body

now i am a bit puzzled by the roof

do you think is there a lot of dust on the roof [from this pic]? or it looks clean enought to leave the model natural appearence since i used a very ligh dust so far to get its general appearence ?

thans for you guidance

do  you think that in cases of very light dusty weathering this model could be prototopical ?
