How To Weather WITHOUT an Airbrush - Modern BNSF Dash 9 

I don’t get how people are already commenting before they have watched the entire thing. Nice job as usual

I love the work Josh and his father do. I actually met them and had lunch at Subway at the NMRA Show in my hometown Sacramento back in like 2012 or so.

Nice video, this is the weathering process I use the most. One detail I think you shouldve included is weathering the wheel faces. Its a small step but makes a huge difference when the model is moving

I don’t have an airbrush this was super helpful thanks!

This tutorial is very inspiring, I might just have to try this for myself. Amazing work Josh 👏

Beautiful dash 9

Yes, liked it. Turned out superior

Thanks, Josh, for this detailed weathering tutorial. It was at just the right pace to follow easily. Cheers from Wisconsin!

Outstanding work!

Welcome back. Great video for weathering. I will use it.

Apple Barrel paints can be had at Walmart too I've had good luck with extreme weathering for overly grimy or derelict equipment by layering washes of all sorts of colours

Awesome job thanks for the helpful tips

The tutorial worked great thanks for explaining it so well

Great to get a new video from you. I enjoyed this one

Omg he uploaded this is a holiday! Awesome video as always!

This is almost the same thing I do for Brass, but just without the AIM weathering powder and using oil paints instead as they are easier to work and do a removal process instead.

Finally a brand new video :D

just another amazing video👍👍

Great Job on that Loco!

Josh get a set of dental tools Duluth has them saves the cuts on the fingers those "dull" knives still hurt. Thanks for the video!

Hey Josh. Great video as always. I have a question for you. With all the changes that have happened in the NS Asheville area are you going to keep your layout the same or make changes?

Thank you !

great job👍

Very nice

Can you do a Union Pacific next?

feel like weathering the trucks and fuel tank with the wash was only doable as the BNSF units are silver. Would be a lot tricker to have a desirable effect with most roads having black trucks + fuel tanks

Nice to see a new video after such a long time. How are your studies going?

Josh...Hmmm...,Love that technique....I weathered my trains by air brush.....I have to try this when I get another loco ...Thanks.....NS....RULES.....

Cool

Can you make a video tutorial of how to install walk way lights on that Foamer SOU high hood?

Hey Josh, thanks for showing this with paint brushing. You went right over a lot of the labels and warning decals. Usually those are reapplied if they cant be read anymore? Do you just wipe them while the paint is still wet or wait until its dry. As you said , it is hard to keep straight lines, would you recommend taping them or will that peel the other paint. Finally I feel it looks chunky and heavy overall. Could you do an engine with airbrushed weathering the same way and show the comparison? I've got an airbrush but still have to learn how to use it. I am just starting into weathering and will try by brushing but I don't want them to be too heavy. Earl

Great work as usual Josh. Any tips on getting the shell off? I can’t seem to get one off of my 25th Anniversary unit

I have thought of doing some light weathering on some of my bnsf locomotives. But I don't have much experience to know what to do.

lets go

Why do essentially a full brush repaint with acyrlics when you could get better results and not loose small labels and things by filtering with oil paints?

Lindo demais 😍😍👏👏👏

the warning stickers just get painted over?

Hey on your railraod crossing video tutorial I don’t know where to get the bell for it, could you tell me a name to look up so I can buy the bell speaker for it?

how do you make the interior monitors? Is it a SMD LED?

Since dis is a dash-9, it could have been a repainted warbonnet

Well that was cool, so question on the paint, are you actually use full strength paint or is it diluted a bit closer to wash? Asking because my brush paint technique is not that great.

What's the next layout update

Hey Josh- would you be interested in quoting detail work on a ES44DC BNSF locomotive for me replicating the damaged locomotive I was in during a Boulder strike? I'm not sure how to contact anyone via private message here.

If you set the shell out in the sun for several days, turning each side towards the sun, wouldn't that fade the paint similarly. Anybody out there, tried that?

So, are you moving away from NS now since the bad ways they have handled their disasters? Or are you just trying to change it up.

Looks great!
