Scalemodelmedic, better known as Jon Hayward, has finally released the second video in his series on how to weather model trains. Jon has really gone to town on this boxcar and the graffiti is really looking good. A third video is in the making and will be highly anticipated here.

The rust was done using Oil paints and odorless petroleum.
This is a project for a YouTube friend and it's my first fully painted model railroad construction. Unfortunately the kit isn't really that well detailed and adding that to the model is to big a task, so I'm leaving the inside as is. It will be painted but I'm not doing any gap filling or detailing. This project is actually all about weathering and graffiti. I want to try airbrushing the graffiti on the walls but I struggle to get my airbrush to function proper.
The rust on the doors was/is a nightmare. I left them in direct sunlight in the window for over a week and the oil-paint hasn't dried completely yet. This has prevented me from working on the inside of the doors and I have only done the outside. If I have to wait another week for the second layer to dry too I will properly run AMOK in the streets of Kopenhagen.
Hopefully I will get some work done on this project over the weekend.
I only want 3 regular gables so I had to scratch build one.
I have to blend the 2 colours together but base cote done.
It took over a week in direct sun-light to dry.
I have to be really careful not to damage my work.
Better late than lever. That seems to be my life in a nutshell. I just set up the layout in our cellar and got the brilliant idea to make an Advents calender. A tad late, but what ever. From now on and until the 25th December, I will be posting a new short clip from my cellar layout every day. The 25th December I will release the full length video named "Kellerbahn".
Jeg har igennem de sidste par år arbejdet en del med at lave en god sporplan til mit layout. Det har sgu været svært men jeg tror jeg er ved at have fundet ud af det. Tre niveauer. En skyggebanegård nederst, et mellem niveau til op og ned stigning og en station på det øverste. jeg starter med at bygge skyggebanegården og bare forbinde enderne. Jeg har nemlig SLET ikke alle de skinner jeg skal bruge. Jeg regner men at det vil tage mig et års tid at samle skinner til det øverste niveau, så jeg har god tid til at finde ud af hvordan det skal se ud.
