Basic Weathering techniques for n-scale rolling stock! Link to purchase the Hopper Car shop.fiferhobb... shop.fiferhobb... Dans Channel / @dansrailroad2011
California central valley we have lots of silos and every Tuesday there are 1000s of covered hoppers waiting to be filled on both santa fe and up lines. All have been tagged.
Just found your channel, and no doubt your weathering job is second to none, truly amazing work. That said, and I'm sure you will agree, the video tutorial itself could be better, not sure if the camera could be set up on the left so to have a better view of your workings, as well as perhaps better showing of what you are using. For instance you watered down a pan pastel, what's a pan pastel? How much water/how thin did you make it? Can easily be demonstrated by drawing a line on a white piece of printer paper to show how thin the mixture is. I subscribe because you're talent is amazing, and believe over time your filming will improve!
Great video Gavin and great techniques,you use. No wonder your Grandfather spoke so highly of those Locos you did on his layout. You have a great gift and talent. Well done Gavin keep it up. Thankyou. Kevin
Excellent results, but I have to agree with those who state the camera is poorly located. You hands are in the way the vast majority of your working time, and sometimes, the car is out of the frame while you’re working on it.
I like it, great technigue you have you have, Hears a tip I may offer, I used it for years when I was in HO, We only see one side of a car when we run trains. Before weathering change the car number in one side of the some car, then when you can have two tips of weathering
Great job Gavin . You are very talented. My opinion... set camera so it looks down and above you a bit so people can actually see you do what your doing. Keep up with the videos.
I like the result, but like what others have said, the purpose of a tutorial is to show what you’re doing. And here you mostly show your fingers. It does not help much. Sure you’ll improve on your next vids. Keep it up!
