Its so relaxing watching Ivana transform these models, I only run diesels but that steam loco was just fab well done.
Yeah another ASMR video from McKinley 🙂 - Seriously, I love watching these videos. Not only do you learn so much form an excellent presenter, Ivana has such a soothing and relaxing voice, watching this is a great way to unwind and chill out after a busy or stressful day.
Couldn’t agree more! Her videos are so relaxing, I often watch them to help me sleep. There’s something about the way she speaks and presents things. Very calm and methodical.
That was very interesting Ivana thankyou. Mr McKinley is lucky to have you...
Super narrative on a quite complex subject. I don't think I would have the courage to weather a new loco mainly because of the cost as it would be a very expensive error if I got it wrong !! Thanks Iwana and also a thanks to Charlie for the excellent filmwork.
Cheers, Bob
Locomotives should not look that dirty and tired, but that is just how I remember them from the last days of steam! Nice job.
Thank you Ivana. New techniques and very effective. I was very interested in your preparations. You are an excellent presenter. :-)
69. Nice! Interesting video. Weathering looks really good!
Wow! Incredible job 👍👀👍 great technique👍
Hi Ivana.
About 8 months ago, when you were filmed weathering a green diesel, I intimated that it would be good to see you weathering a steam loco. Well, my wish has come true, and I have to say what a superb job you have done in this video. You make it look so easy that I am now tempted to have a go at weathering one of my steam locos using your techniques. I like the way you explain the positives and negatives of the various different products that you use, thus making it easier for us viewers to decide on what and what not to use. Those decisions are so important if we are to obtain the kind of finish that we are seeking.
Keep your weathering videos coming Ivana as us modellers need all the help we can get if we are to obtain exactly what we are looking for.
Paul. 👍
Brilliantly executed Ivana. Fascinating to watch.
Preparation of unsightly mould joins is very important, I have to agree Ivana. Good low profile triangular and half-round files to start with, and fibre pen for the stubborn bits. I read about the 'heavy loading' of paint in a magazine article - Hornby Mag, J27 conversions - where you take off almost as much 'gunk' as you put on. I vary my technique according to need, from presentable (recently out-shopped) to almost worked out on mineral engines, varying appearance, as on my three Hornby Q6 0-8-0 mineral and industrial 'heavies'
Well done Ivana, I can remember locomotives looking just like that at the bottom of the Lickey incline based in Bromsgrove shed at the lower end.
That is impressive! I'm going to try these techniques you have presented. Thank you!
At first it looked like it was heavily overdone but at the end the effect is very good, lovely rusty and grimey steam engine.
Always looking out for video's with Ivana.
Nicely done!
Really useful video Ivana simply because I love your manner and delivery.
Also very pleased that you are continuing with your series of weathering videos despite the rather undesirable comment posted to you last year or the year before. You are a very important part of the McKinley team and deserve professional respect.
My era or interest is 1960-1975 so tired and grubby steam locos are very important. I have the same model which you have weathered so your tips are valuable.
Thanks very much Ivana and please keep helping us. Maybe more rolling stock of different kinds ?
Thank you Phil for your supportive comments. Regards David
This video was most helpful thank you. Love to see a similar one on buildings like the Peco range that would turn them from toy like to authentic looking on the lay out. Thanks Stu
Superb job - lots of very useful tips for those of us without airbrushes, and wanting to do the job to the best standard.
Thank you so much for making this video! I don't have an airbrush and have just given your feathering technique a go on an old wagon and it looks great! Well to my eyes anyway! I used acrylic paint and did just a tiny section at a time but can see how enamels would make the process even better.
Thanks again and keep up the good work!
Mike
That was very interesting and very well explained and you accommodated the camera perfectly, well done!!
Just been looking at some photos of a visit that we made to Barry Island in 1982, when you think about it, it would be realistic to have a line of rusty old locos at some point in the cycle.
Good luck from Spain!!
unfortunately barry hasn't many trains there anymore i live not far from the island
Amazing job. Really well done.
Wow, I thought the paint was going on too thick at first but the results are excellent. Well done, another useful, well presented and informative video on weathering. To save scrolling through the video, could you add a list of items used, like Charlie of Chadwick fame does?
Keep up the good work, looking forward to diesel roofs and ends....!!!
Patrick
Great work and very realistic. A must in any railroad layout.
good vid on the channel nice job thanks lee
WOW! What can I say that hasn't already been said? Young lady, you may be the very best at your craft. I certainly hope that McKinley Railway appreciates what an asset they have in you! Your presentations are so professional, and it is very obvious that you have been at this for awhile. your weathering process is so much better than an airbrush. I am anxious to to try your methods on my locos, but first, I think I'll apply them to some of my rolling stock. I can't tell you how glad I am that I have had the privilege to watch your work. please keep the videos coming. It would be very interesting to see how you would apply your talent to a structure.
Hello David,
We most certainly appreciate Ivana and I can't wait to move Ivana over to the scenic side once we have finished the stock. Everyone in the team are itching to do the scenics.
I think I'm in love ...LOL
Beautiful.
Thank you! Cheers!
Hola Ivana. No creo que pudiese envejecer tanto una locomotora, porque considero que se les debe dar mantenimiento por la empresa de ferrocarriles. La dejaría con un desgaste intermedio y tu video me va a ayudar mucho para lograrlo de la mejor manera.
Gracias y saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱, Sudamérica.
Fantastic result, I would have used an oil paint for the white water run though. Keep up the good work I look forward to these videos. Well done
Thank you very much for another fine video about weathering.
Can we have more, please ?
Perhaps coaches, vans or even track/permanent way ?
I do look forward to see some more on this channel.
Best wishes
Dirk
Check out the McKinley web site for many such videos

Hello, thank you very much for this video. As usual, superb work. Can we also do it with oil brusher, with the same way you've shown on the two others tutorials of weathering locomotives ? Thank you. I hope that one day, you'll do a tutorial of weathering passengers coaches ;-)
It's normal the Vallejo Model Air is thin, as it's formulated specifically for the airbrush. For brush techniques, use rather the Model Color, Panzer Aces or the Game Color ranges from Vallejo as they are more creamy and work very well with a brush as I several times demonstrated at the London MRC stand at the London Festival of Model Railways or in many other exhibitions on the continent (Belgium, Netherlands and France). The main advantage with those compared to the Solvent based paints such as Humbrol, Tamiya etc. is that if the effect is not good, you just "wash" gently with thinner (mix of water and alcohol) and the paint is reactivated and can be removed (why I always recommend to fix the weathering afterwards with an acrylic polyurethane varnish (made by both Vallejo and Ammo by MiG) or an Enamel one applied with the airbrush (a cheap single action airbrush with basic compressor or air can is perfectly sufficient for such a job) or a spray can (Humbrol, Tamiya, etc.)
I hope those informations will be usefull to you and all the viewers. Eric, from Belgium.
You are working very hard on your "W" s.
Great video, i have a fleet of around 20 pristine loco's but i just can't find the courage to potentially deface my loco's if things go wrong .
you do not need sand paper to prepare the surface, just spray lightly with Testor's Dullcote
~36:00 how many of the axles are driven from this model of a Garratt (one or two motors)?
It's the Heljan LMS Garratt.
Fitted with two motors, driving three axles each.
Cheers
Dirk
All that sanding can be avoided with matte varnish.
No mention of cleaning the wheels so you still get power to the motor , or did I miss that bit .
Will we ever see any of these locos running though ?
That’s extremely heavy ‘end of steam’ weathering, and dare I say it, it looks more like a Barry Island loco that’s sat in the scrap sidings for a few years.
She did say at the start it was heavy weathering. She's done lighter weathering in another video. I remember such really filthy locos in 1959, when we visited England and stayed in Tunbridge Wells (digs looked up to water tower for Tunbridge Wells West Station so we say the locos all the time) on leave from Nigeria for uncle's wedding, and from 1961 when we moved to stay in UK. Both 1959 and 1961-62 were cold, lots of snow and lots of frozen hoses and water troughs so maybe not a lot of cleaning done then. Might have been even better to scratch and dent it. You'd only want one or two such ultra-heavy weathered locos based at a dirty yard
@@cuebj ...and the photo at 1min 30secs confirms it too :)
She puts me to sleep...
'promo sm'
Sorry, but I do not know why you used the word 'Lacquer'.
Lacquer thinner can damage plastic and rubber...
I can think of better ways to spend the massive amount of money spent to build this layout.
Im against this because ho would want a train that's been painted when u are gonna sell it.
All depends on whether you ever want to sell the locos , i like the lighter weathering approach myself . Just to take away the new/plastic look
They're not planning to sell it. Maybe you haven't watched any McKinley Railway videos before.
WOW......... that looks really bad and not in a good way . One could achieved a better look and not screwed up a new loco .
Not good at all I hope people do not try this .
@Tud Row.
What rubbish you are spouting. Clearly you know nothing about what Mike is striving to achieve with his layout. It's his money that purchases the locos, so it's up to him how his models are treated. You are insulting the viewers of this video if you think they are stupid enough to weather a brand new loco before giving it some serious thought first. I'd like to see a video of you doing better at weathering. I doubt that will ever happen.
Paul.
On the layout, do you plan to use multiple locos of the same number to show them in different conditions over the period of the “time machine”? Eg. If you have loco numbered 12345 in 1967 in pristine condition, would you have another loco model with the same number but in more weathered condition in 1975?
As the loco addresses are besed on the loco numbers to identical should cause problems,
only if you can be sure not more then one of them is on the layout any given time
or with two same numbered upper bodies sharing the same frame (wheels, motor, decoder, ...) it may works
THE EDITING IS REALLY BAD. YOUR SHOWING HOW TO APPLY CERTAIN PAINTS WITH A SPONGE THEN IT JUMPS SHOWING IT COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM WHAT THE LAST CLIP SHOWED. NOT SURE WHAT PEOPLE ARE TO TAKE FROM THIS WHEN YOUR NOT EXPLAINING THE STEP BY STEP GUIDE TO PAINTING LOCOS PROPERLY. MIGHT AS WELL SAY YOUR GOING TO PAINT THE LOCO AND THERE YOU GO...... FINISHED. JUST SKIP TO THE END FOLKS COZ YOUR NOT GONNA LEARN ANY HINTS OR TIPS
Haven't you moved on yet. Its been while since there was a Mckinley video and your first to comment and first to complain. WHAT A SHOCK
Can you speak up, I can’t hear you! Colonel Ga-Dummy, more like.
Perhaps they are just watching a loco be weathered... without it being a lesson.
Might be more worthwhile to consider the other option of what this video may represent, diplomatically put, something for the dads?
Not many women in a hobby on a public stage, attach to one and in comes the crowd there to drool who can say but no I'm here for the modelling.
Is a nice bit of weathering all contextual and textural concerns of it's presentation aside so that's nice
