Not building but painting

I’m trying some thing new. I’m repainting the LGB log cars. Before

I’m using Folk Art’s paint. Burnt Sienna for rust. Barn Wood for wood . Da. Soft Black for painted metal. I’ll use the Soft Black in a wash on the wood. I’ll also paint over the Soft Black(painted metal) with a wash of Burnt Sienna. What do you think its worth it ? Sean

Great work, Sean!

I can’t wait to see them finished. I really like the soft black. Keep up the great work.

So was it worth it?

What a difference. Well worth it, I’d say.

I think I’ll have to look at those paints. I’m not all that crazy about Floquil anymore…especially for the price.
