Dean-I recently posted a question about weathering with acrylics and got a lot of really good tips.Many of the replies also mentioned using washes(either thinned acrylics or india ink which could be used for plastic or wood)drybrushing,chalks etc. I found them to be very helpful. I have also gotten some useful information from Model Railroader. They ran an article in the June 2002 issue on painting with a brush,washes and drybrushing. I found it helpful. I am at the stage with my layout where the buildings are done and weathered and am now ready to do my loco and rolling stock and like you I am going to experiment on an old boxcar and see what works best befor getting to the good stuff. <br />Hope this helped a little. Good luck-Bob
