Beginner Guide: Weathering an HO Scale Flat Car (Multiple Techniques)

How to Weather HO Scale Flat Cars | Weathering with Brush and Acrylic | Weathering Model Trains | Basics of Airbrush Weathering

Continuing from there, in this episode I am going to show how to paint various details and do a variety of weathering on these flat wagons. I also explain my methods of studying the prototype to plan for various types of weathering effects that depends not only on the type of rolling stock, but also the material, locale and typical cargo they carry.
