Rapido Covered Hopper

This is the heavier weathered side although the overall weathering is very light.

I recently applied a little weathering to my CN covered hopper. The car looks really good right out of the box but on one side there was a couple of paint flaws. These I hid with a rust spot and rust scratch along the side. Some light PanPastels applied and all is well. The second side is left with less weathering. I began this project with two coats of Rapido flat haze to tone down the overall appearance...George Dutka

I did add a bit of roof top spillage.

The dirtiest area of the car was the trucks and wheels. MIG powders from my friend Gary Pembleton are what I used.
