CV Outside Brace Boxcar Kit - Updated

Ready for service. 

I had mentioned this car a few posts back. It is a Steam Shack-F&C kit that was built by Roger Chrysler. I giving the car a good wash as there was a good amount of dust on it. Then I touching up the paint that was knocked off with Floquil boxcar red.  I added a few Northeastern chalk mark decals before a coat of Tamiya flat clear was applied.

I changed out the trucks with Andrews by Tichy. Wheels were painted cinnamon brown and the trucks Vallejo rust texture. The roof got a coat of acrylic dark gray wash followed by some PanPastel powders over the gray. The side walls are done lightly with a very dark gray PanPastel, mainly on the door, lower sides of the cars and the ribs...George Dutka

Some kick-up spray was added to the ends above the wheels. These are the PanPastel colors used on this car.

Chalk marks are added to both sides.

The trucks are changed out to follow the prototype.
