Pancake ready, base underway
Added 2024-04-26 07:52:51 +0000 UTCMy friends, the loco is finished using the same methods as the cabin.
After the wash I proceeded with natural scatter in the corners fixed with Balladt Freeze, then some airbrushed dust with Buff, dry-brusing with a dark rusty color on every edge, some moss deposits on the undercarriage (enamel Slimy Grime) and finally, rust streaks with oil paints.
I started painting the base without the obligatory dark primer, starting with the concrete wall and then the foliage. The rails need to be painted appropriately and then itβll need some fine treatment with brushes!

2024-04-30 09:36:35 +0000 UTCI was influenced by an old railroad track that runs around my town, and I wanted to shoot an intro to this video there... in the meantime, they started disassembling it as there will be a bike line instead :D
