Glad I came across this thread. Very helpful. When I get the confidence, I want to weather some tank cars and a pressure flow hopper.

This was my first attempt at weathering a steamer and my last. I kind of winged it, but did research colour photos I could find of this loco.

I did it with pan pastels, and acrylics and sealed it with dullcote. I did the sand on the wheels with an airbrush while the wheels were in motion.

The sunlight brings out more of the various shades.
