Easy Sharpening Up of your Passenger Car Interiors.

Its no problem sharing what I know. Finding interior colors is a VERY hard thing to do and if I can share what I have, I will. I wish someone would just make a section on their website with interior colors for everything so research would be much easier. <br /> <br />Plus, I don't want to leech off information especially when I know I have something that can be of use. I should be home by Thursday and will have the Powhattan Arrow colors around then. <br /> <br />I model O-gauge and have already painted NYC, SOU, and N&W passenger car interiors. I want to make sure what I've done is right, but my current projects are another set of NYC cars and two Nickle Plate Heavyweights that I want to make into Pullman's, thus I need some time of color scheme for these. <br /> <br />Passenger figures in O-gauge are possibly to buy like 120unpainted for $22 and I do a decent paint job. One pack can go a long way...maybe not entire FULL train, but pretty far. Not to mention that companies are starting to put prototype colored interiors in their cars WITH people...saves some trouble. <br /> <br />Here are the Pullman Sleeper colors given by someone else:(possibly prototype) <br />Since the scale distance is so grand between viewer and object I use pale cream for walls, and pale green or tan for seats. If you model PULLMAN sleepers, you can try pale green walls with pale red-tan seats. Most cars had a real scheme. Made up of contrasting colors. Red and green are color opposites, blue and orange, and violet and yellow. <br /> <br />[url]http://gardenrailways.com/community/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=21650[/url] <br /> <br />That was from another post that originally brought me to this forum. Very Informative since my father wants to get SCL coaches, but I have no information on SCL interiors.
