TOPIC: What did YOU do this week?

What did YOU do this week? 10 years 8 months ago #1678

RRDavey OFFLINE Engineer Posts: 98 Thank you received: 24	I spilled a bottle of PolyScale Grimy Black paint this week. How's that?!!! I was drybrush weathering some freight car wheels and caught the bottle with my brush. Since the Floquil stuff is no longer made, this was not one of my better moves...I did finish the XMWa boxcar and now am adding decals and weathering to a Bowser RDG F3 and a couple XMy boxcars.

tomjacobs OFFLINE Superintendent Posts: 177 Thank you received: 37	Built, painted and lettered two 40' Branchline boxcars: XMw 114170 XMa 107653 Got the chance to try the Microscale boxcar set - decals are very fragile, and only allow you to letter an XMw or XMwa car. Script inside the diamond is also incorrect. When the Reading Modeler releases a set for the boxcar red speed lettering cars, these and other flaws will be rectified...
