Firecrown 12847 Model Railroader's Guide to Weathering Models

by Jeff Wilson

Weathering includes blending subtle and heavy effects - grime, rust, soot, dirt - and doing it in a way that matches how prototype locomotives, freight cars, and other details acquire their aged appearance.

Weathering Models from Jeff Wilson will show you several techniques for capturing these effects.

FEATURES:

• Identify how and why prototype rolling stock, locomotives, vehicles, and structures acquire specific types of weathering
• Create specific rust, grime and wear effects with paint washes, drybrushing, oversprays, chalks, and stains
• Realistically weather both simulated (plastic) wood and real wood
• Blend various weathering effects to create prototypical results
• Weather and paint specific prototype components and details such as wheels and trucks
