Here's some recent weathering.
I've got more pics to post of this weathering project. Thanks Yoshi.
A friend of mine up the road a ways (20+ miles) brought me a half sheet of decal paper and some sealer yesterday, so I made some real decals. I found that I have to set my printer on fast draft for it to work with this stuff. Normal just makes the ink crack.
Here's a couple of the decals. I also did some for the number boards. I made some for the GP50 also but they cracked up on me.

Here's some more pics of weekend projects
I can't wait to post the rest.
JK, Thats a fine weathering job. Do you have any pictures of the other side? What did you use for the rust?

Just got this one uploaded.
Now who's picking on who? I don,t see JK as a bully. I see him offering sound advice and thats all I see. Advice! The guy shoots some quality pictures and offers help. Whats wrong with that? He did not ruin the WPF. That was somebody else. So we all know this is aimed at jeffery. So Jeffery, Why not give JK,s advice on how to shoot your pictures and present them in next weeks WPF? and if it works and you feel you,ve improved, good for you. The bottom line here is arn,t we all trying to be the best we can?

Some people just need to feel that they can control others and in turn this makes them feel important. This isn't JK's forums...and hence he can't make his own rules and enforce them. One thing that makes this forum worth while is pics of 'works in progress'. I want to see meothods and the like so I can use and abuse said meothods. 'How to's and 'work in progress' pics are far, far more valuable than finished works of art.Jeff....dont let someone like this get to you. He just isnt worth the attention. Just egnore him like the weekend trolls.JK....thanks for ruining a WPF for a second time this weekend! It must leave a great impression to the folks wandering over here for the first time. I just dont understand how the mods can let this type of abuse go on week after week.......David B

David,
You're correct! I can't control others nor enforce the rules, and I haven't tried, unlike others who go go crying and reporting things to Bergie when they don't like what someone says, comments, or suggests. My SUGGESTION to Jeff was to wait until he had completed his weekend project before posting pictures of it. Others have made the same suggestion, not only this weekend, but in previous weekends. Others disagreed with this suggestion and said it would be fine to post in progress pics and that there is basically no restrictions or limits on how much a person could post. Go back and review those comments and remember them. I made not comment or criticism about his modeling, pro or con, the quality of his pictures etc. The only comment was to wait until he was done so the people could get a complete picture of what he had accomplished. Maybe you're reading too much into what was said?
Boy, now I'm feeling bullyed by people and abused. You're trying to limit what I can post and what I can say. There was no personal attack made, but you seem to want to limit what I can say or how I can voice my opinion. Maybe I should report this because you've seem to have a pattern of wanting to bully people and limitng what they can say. ?????
I wonder how making a post suggestion that Jeff wait until the end of his project to post his pics ruined WPF this weekend. Especially, when there were others who agreed with what I said. Did they ruin it too? Will you report them for abuse? Should we report Jeff for abuse because every weekend he said that he's done with posting pics and then the following weekend is back posting again? This is probably the third or fourth that that has occurred. Is that right?
COULD EVERYONE PLEASE STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is getting to be the world's biggest arguement!!!
Jeffrey; I an kind of see where people are coming from, just complaining about all the photos, but I really hate how everyone picks on you, I'm not sure why. Does someone have a grudge and is out to ruin your life? I do have one suggestion, maybe you could post links instead of photos, to help the people stck with dial-up.
JK; I don't see you as a bully either, because you have posted other great pics, and helpful threads, but your sarcastic posts of the boxcars, then the comment about how you can't wait to post the rest, IS NOT APPRECIATED HERE!!!
Yoshi, I hope you decide to post those pics, they would be welcome after all the name calling and arguing this weekend!
And to all people who have posted photos, and stayed out of the arguement; great photos!
