So, I’ve not weathered a car in g scale…ever. I did a horrible job weathering ho scale, back in the 80’s. Really, really bad.
So, today after a couple tumbler’s of whiskey, I figured what the heck. I decided I would give it a try. I found some pics online that I liked and thought I would try and model them.
I did a heavy side and a light side to an AML CSX Bethgon coal porter. I did it on the same car, just in case I hate one side and have to run it the same direction all the time. Which, I think I will. Whiskey played no part…lack of knowing what I was doing did.
Soooooo. Here’s the pics.
This is the light side.
AND, here is the heavy side. I like the tub on this one, I just wish I would have done the panels and ribs like the other side. Oh well.
I still have to do the coal load, the trucks, the wheels, and the couplers. I know the lighting sucks for these pictures, but it’s 20 degrees outside and the wind is howling…so no outside pics. lol.
