Weathering Model Railway | Weather Wagons Using Only 2 Paints

In this video we weather a model railway wagon from Mainline using only 2 color paints. The paints can be mixed and thinned to achieve various shades and effects.
This technique will give you an effective weathering finish in your rolling stock in a very short time. We shot the entire video in under an hour, and that included stopping for a coffee and stripping down the airbrush when it clogged up.
The products used were:
Vallejo Air 'Hemp' amzn.to/3aGrZzc
Vallejo Model Color German Black Brown amzn.to/3oXUu08
Fibre Glass Pen amzn.to/2Yx6lHV
We currently use a Iwata Neo Airbrush for our weathering

Your expert weathering really brings out all the molded details on this wagon, man. Mainline really made fantastic quality rolling stock for the time which still holds up by today's standards, in my opinion. :)

Mainline wagons are great value. And the original moulds were used for Bachmann wagons too. Wouldn’t be surprised if they still use some of them. Thanks for watching again 👍🏼

Another set of awesome tips for us. Thank you for sharing your technique.

That was exactly just using X2 colours 👍🏻 Have you got a Lima coach weathering video 🤔 Cheers Stevie 😎

Unfortunately, not yet, but it's in the pipeline

@@BuntersYard good morning. Thanks for your reply. I don’t have an airbrush set up as I’m not confident enough to use one lol 😆 But after watching your videos I’m sure I’ll get one and have a go as your tutorials really help. I’m going to my local model shop the Locoshed in Manchester when the lockdown ends as Jim has a scrap bin of old stock that I could practice on. Looking forward to seeing you weather some coaches with the airbrush and without. Take care cheers Stevie 😎

I’m thinking of doing a basic guide to airbrushing. I’m not an expert but I’ve picked up a few tips and tricks along the way

Nice job! What is that rubber type pen called you used to rub off the lettering?

​@@BuntersYardThanks when watching the video I see you got good results with the air brush. I have just bought one and tried using it after thinning down the paint and varnish I used but even spraying lightly I got a bubbly uneven effect.
How do you manage to get a good finish?
