Weathering National Rail 8117 (SDS Models)

Today we're weathering 8117 in National Rail livery from SDS Models. The National Rail livery is one of the more short lived liveries that some 81s were in during their stint with NR before joining PN in 2003 and I find it weather's up rather uniquely compared to Freight Rail blue or PN Blue.
The SDS 81 class is the pinnacle of 81 class models to date and I'm allowed to say that I own 14 of them so look out for more 81 class weathering videos!
Weathered based off of a photo of 8117 in the hunter valley circa 2003.
