Weathering for Model Railroads\/Railways is a developing artform. I have been experimenting with techniques off-and-on for a year or so with a range of results…<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Class Details Section” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_color=”#efe9e4″ custom_padding=”90px||60px|” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row admin_label=”Class Details Area” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”27px|0px|60px|0px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Title” _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Poppins|600|||||||” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_font_size=”36px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”||0px|” custom_padding=”|||” animation_style=”fade” global_colors_info=”{}”]

There was quite a psychological barrier to overcome when I first decided to attempt weathering my rolling stock. After some early endeavours which I was less than satisfied with, I took time to research what others were doing and recommending as viable weathering techniques. From that I developed an approach – consistent with others to a large degree – that I’m happy with. I’m now starting to add my own variations too.\u00a0<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.20.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.20.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_toggle title=”Preparation” _builder_version=”4.20.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]
