Pictures need to be posted to a website and then linked to via the URL they have.

Hi some of mine. Not many at our club here in South Africa weather models. How do I go about adding pics?
I just started weathering my models recently and have jumped in with both feet. There is A LOT of good information in this forum and also on other sites out there so I felt good knowing I could learn from others. Then there was also corresponding with a colleague who gave me that extra nudge to get over the fear of messing up... Below are two images, but one can get to more (with clickable larger ones) on my blagh at http://papphausen.blogspot.com/. Everytime I look at them I notice little details to fix, the bolts holding the rods on the steamer for instance, but all in all I'm really happy with the results. I've also started weathering cars, both freight and passenger... Every one is a learning experience, but a real enjoyable one.

Thank you,
and a steamer, my friend Peter weathered:
and this Mike was my work:

Nicely weathered. Not too overly done makes it more authentic.
This is the start of my mill complex. I split the Walthers mill into two buildings by adding a wall, ramp & inside floor to the shed. I'm working on some signs & other details.

That looks very convincing knowing you only used acrylics on it.

Looking good, but it still needs something. The rust drips on the side need some added relief. Perhaps some 'rust' powder of some sort instead of looking like a paint line. I'm also thinking a final dusting on the side as well, maybe using a very light coat utilizing an airbrush. Aggrojones is the expert so hopefully he'll chime in here. Nice overall though.
Your yellow box car is very convincing. I wouldn't change a thing on that model.

I don't know if I listed the Railbox, but here it is. Also heres a picture of what I am working on now. I did a patch job on the numbers due to the numbers didn't match the model car. I still need to work on the skull in the upper corner again.
My latest one:
How did you do that rust? (specifically, the rust spots..)
Chris
Hi,

The fascia of my CNJ Bronx Temrinal portable layout, heavily weathered to look like an industrial relic...

I have not used oils before. I simply used Floquil grimy black and rust. My technique is to apply full strenght paint, then brush over with brush cleaner to manipulate the paint. Would using oils save a step, to achieve similar results?

Question Jer....any oils used on that car?

Bragdon is the powders I have been using. Brown seems to show through dull-cote pretty well. I have tried with the other colors to repeat applyling the powder and dull-cote, which works, but is wasteful. I will try the AIMS products. Thanks!
Drilline, your trailer looks very good, natural.
