Sh*t Habbiins

Following on from the last post, a little weathering was applied to the Habbiins wagons in the hope of hiding any of the original artwork still showing through the dodgy airbrush work.

I don't have many proper model paints in sensible shades at the moment, so mixed up a variety of browny shades on a scrap of foamboard from some cheapie dollar-shop art paints, mixing various dollops of red, blue, yellow - with black and white seasoning to taste. The resulting mess was washed with some thinner and then drybrushed as appropriate.

I'm a bit out of practice, but the end result looks reasonable from the mandated minimum public viewing distance, which in Z scale must be about 2 metres.

I might yet break down and add a Transwaggon logo to the cleaner one at some stage.

Nice to have a couple of weathered wagons on the layout.
