Airbrushing a Class 42 (Warship)

Hi Everyone,
This is my fourth attempt at weathering a loco. If you want to check out my weathering a wagon video, it's on my channel but here is the weathering a loco link.

A nice tutorial, Connor.   :thumbs

I picked up a couple of tips for when (if), I ever get around to doing mine.   :lol:

Do you find that you have to clean the wheel treads afterwards?

Hi Max,

I don't really find that I have to clean the wheel treads after. If you brush paint the wheels you would but that's just easily done with enamel thinners and then they run just as well as they did before. I give the locos a run before weathering anyway.

Good one Connor.

I do all mine with powders and a little pen-and-ink.  But when the next batch of Warships is released there will be a few here you can come and practice on!
