Well thank you for sharing this work of art.this must have taken you a life time to learn and now your teaching us. Your the man.in my mind your ‘the master’...lol....can’t stop got to go on to part three of this tutorial....thank you again...👍
Good tutorial. One question, starting at 3:38: Do you then use water or thinner to finish the rust a bit? So first powder + thinner to apply and then water to detail and refine? Thx!
Bought one of your coaches - really nice finish. Having seen your video today the techniques I use are similar to yours except you have a better brush range which I need to look at
John Longbottom thanks for the comment. It's a very simple but yet effective style. To think it advanced from a huge mistake (tried to wipe off the paint after getting it wrong) so the same style I now stick to - Just with brushes rather than a cloth!
Thanks much appreciated - your style is simple - do you put graffiti on as well - I can't remember seeing one on ebay with it - "Keep off" yes but not graffiti?
Honestly the model looks very good, I'm definitely going to follow this method, do you have to wear a mask when adding the weathering powders?,or just good ventilation I'm just concerned when using powders
No mask needed, the powders are just pastel based and don't give off anything harmful. I'd avoid any ventilation especially if there's a slight breeze as those powders will make a mess if they blow in the wrong direction.
Nope it was trialed that way at first but the effect of heavy rust was dulled down far too much.. that said doing as you mentioned does have it's benefits for lighter weathering in normal grime colours. Also if the paint mix is mixed with thinners and thinned out to much it dries off to quick and makes it hard to agitate it again.
Nice work! Looks awesome. A few questions if you have a sec. Did you thin the mat varnish and powders mix before painting it on? And do you let it dry a little or go straight in and clean off?
On this model the mix was just the varnish and powders to create a more heavy rust finish. I would thin the mixture if I was aiming for a lighter rusty finish as it's less to remove and streak. The same would apply to normal weathering tones.

really looks weathered and worn out, nice job. what a scrap unit. thank you for your ability!
Very informative, and enjoyable. Thanks for posting. These techniques are going to be really useful in my 1/72 HMS Buttercup corvette.
Excellent work, I'm going to be doing a partial model of Bescot Yard, lots of old disused loco's there!
Glad you enjoyed the video! Going to be doing some more over the next couple of weeks, one of them will be another loco.

Is there a reason why you didn't thin the first coat? I would have thought it would be easier than 'washing' off with thinners afterwards
