Thanks !!

A bit more work done on the DB boxcar, added more dust and grimes, darkened the roof a bit more with this AK paneliner wash for wintercamouflage. And used AMMO trackwash on the undercarriage with an overall wash, adding AK rust deposit dark and medium to the springs and surrounding area..touched up the riets with rust streaaks and dark brown wash for green vehicles..

GREAT work.
I don't use an airbrush to weather anything as some people make weathering look too even when they use one.
Your cars are very well done and have the 'random' look of real life in them.
I have a soft spot for German rolling stock, too, by the way.

Martin,
I am not surprised to read that.
I love dry-brushing myself and sometimes go a little overboard...

Do have that problem often Lee, to much sometimes I can't stop adding layers..

Well I do have the next victim on the bench. Boy this ones small compared to the German boxcar. But a boxcar again and in this case its a Intermountain produced HO one.
First steps are not that exiting, just masking certain parts, fade lettering with a glass fiber pencil and give the car an overal spray with Vallejo modelcolor white wash in several thin layers to achieve this faded look. Sometimes I do think I go to far in fading and it looks awfull white but I believe the color enhances again with a wash of dark brown..and if not, I tested the paint underneath and can remove the whitewash with allejo airbrush cleaner, it does not attack the original paintjob..

Rethinking the faded effects. Tried another wash on the whitish side. Vallejo modelcolor wash rust, with some brown and white. Also mixed dark rust with brown and white and airbrushed it on to the sides to tone the white fade down but also tried it as a fade on the other side of the car. Original color shows on one piece of the data..

Faded white with a wash of rust/brown /white shows a more orange fade

rust/brown/white on the original color for a more redish fade..
