Did you use acrylics Mel, damn good job though - you have got that deft touch (and no you can't arrested for it)
No mate, enamels basically because that's what I had to hand, but I do want to give acrylics a go ............ when I've purchased a load more spare jars ...........and maybe a compressor .

Think that one deserves a second pic .
Right, what's next? Accucraft wagons .............. and maybe a loco or 2?
Mmmmmmmmmmm. Me thinks an airbrush will have to go on the want list

Thanks Adrian. Hows this for an interesting mixed train?
Manky loco, freshly outshopped coach ..............
Looks like a typical W&U train to me mel (but without a tram/class 04)
Another typical train on the W&U train which you could recreate with more vans etc and that breakvan would be fruit/fish trains
I like the airbrush weathering mel - expecily on the breakvan if you ever come here...

Let's be having the piccies then mate.
Gotta wait for the paint to dry kid .
OK, the paints dry now .
The Accucraft goods wagons got the airbrush treatment today. Again, they'd already been weathered, but I wanted to do the chassis and running gear - not as easy the LGB ones I did yesterday as you can't just pop out the wheels, so a bit of masking was required.
First, the W&L coal truck.
