A trio of Sunshine Models T&NO stock cars.
As always with resin stock cars, much time was spent sanding, sanding and then more sanding. Those slats won't clear themselves! But the effort is well rewarded.
The weathering was something a little different.
An oil colour wash of medium grey was first applied, only on the slats, followed up by a wash of dark brown. Then the whole car was dusted with road dust from the air brush.
The look was inspired by a number of colour photos I looked at in ATSF Livestock Operations book I have.
The cars were kept fairly cleaning and the frequent washing caused additional wear on the wooden slats.
I'm very pleased with the results.
Wait till you see what is next!
