appreciate the shout out, thank you! I love the fact you've added textures in there by doing some of the powders before adding the airbrush, it certainly makes a big difference to the overall appearance! Not that its essential as you did a good job with it anyway, cocktail sticks are great for getting rid of the maskol/hobby mask once you pull the first corner bit up, you can roll the stick and the rubber/latex will peel off with it, from experience, one slip with a hobby knife doing this can leave a very horrible mark on the windows! Looks top notch!
Thank you Sam, I am really totally green when it comes to this. Your work is just jaw dropping man. That’s a really good point you make about removing the maskol, I could see one slip going totally awry 😅 I’ll do that going forward.
Fair play, Hylton. Weathering is something I personally wouldn't do as I wouldn't want to spoil a locomotive due to my lack of confidence. That said, I think your result is authentic and a credit to you.
You have made a great first weathering job on the loco. What I find is that everyone does it differently so I pick what works for me and what I think it should look like. There are some great products available now too. Something I did once see and have done to replicate buffer grease is to use a dark HB pencil on the buffer heads once you have finished with the paint! Looking forward to seeing what's next.
That looks absolutely filthy Hylt, very good job! It'll look great in the siding near the shed. Might even be worth adding a tarp over the fans on the roof to stop some weather ingress. Over all, mate, looks absolutely fab 👌
The addition of tarpaulin is a good idea, assuming the desired look is a loco that's waiting for a decision on whether it will be repaired or scrapped.
I like that matey, really good 👍 I’ve not used those tamiya powders but they do look decent. I use Humbrol and WWS which are more like a pot full of loose powder. The tamiya seemed to adhere a little better to a none varnished surface. I like that white light up turntable thing what is that? I do like the old diesels they look 👌 Nice hoody too Old Proper Chuffed rocking out the merch 😎😎😎👌
Thanks Dave, I’m happy with where it’s going, I’ve never actually tried weathering powders 🤔 I am trying to source some and hope to give it a go soon! 🤣 thanks mate, I’m quite pleased with how the hoodie came out. See ya soon!
So, does this mean that you will have a breakers yard on the new layout? It looked like fun, and you seem to have the tools you need to achieve the end result. This is something I have never attempted before so muck on, lol. Great video, Jersey Bill
We may need to consider it 🤔 I’m not entirely sure sure I’ll have the space for one, but perhaps its own small diorama at some point? 👌 thanks for watching JB, keep well man
Good weathering. The Warships had a fairly short service life and ended up in quite a grotty condition. I will make a GWR video soon which might help you choose. Thanks for showing. Regards Paul.
Hi Hylton. Contributing to the knowledge base of railway modelling weathering by using the skills learned from detailing model aircraft is most welcome. It also encourages newbie weatherers to have a go! A Warship is without doubt a BR(W) loco. But which GWR steam loco have you decided to buy??
Thank you Stephen, I certainly am rather pleased with the final result, and as you say, just to hopefully get someone else to consider doing so is good enough for me 😊 I am still debating, I’m hoping something at TMC will sway me, otherwise I’m leaning into the idea of a Night Owl or maybe Accurascale Manor?
@@Proper_Chuffed The Accurascale Manor would be a great choice, and safer - if less avant garde - than acquiring a Heljan Night Owl (which I will almost certainly do if the model is ever re-released by Heljan or AN Other manufacturer).
When weathering you really should work from pictures of a loco in real life to give a proper idea of what they looked like. Though to be fair, it didn't come out too bad!
You've got some proper grot there, mate!
That’s the idea! Glad you think so, I feel like I could have gone heavier 😂
Very good tutorial, thanks for sharing.
Ah cheers mate, I really appreciate you saying so! 😊
Love the detail man.... Good Job
Thanks man
Tremendous stuff - a real weathering masterclass. Thank you for this informative video, which was also, therapeutic and relaxing go watch! 👍🚂
Thank you so much!

Powders before Airbrush? Now that’s something I’m gonna have to try 😊 great job!
Thank you so very much. I suppose no cut and dry method. 😂
Love that you’re trying more things cuz, looks great. Well done e!
Thank you cuz, something a bit different for a bit 💁♂️

Thank you so much my friend! I guess it’s a very scary thing so I totally get why most people choose to have it done professionally or not at all 💁♂️

Top tip Lyden, thank you for that, I think I’ll try it out in my next weathering video. Indeed so many ways to achieve this kind effect 😊

Thanks Rob, that means a lot coming from you bro. I think that’s a marvelous idea! I’ll definitely explore it 😊
Lovely idea Stephen 😊

👍👍 Good tutorial / nice results . My desktop background is a Class 42 , she has nice lines I think . Look forward to more .
Thanks Steve, glad you liked it, rather unique looking things aren’t they? Keep well

Thanks for that Paul, I look forward to seeing that video! Keep well sir!
Adding the bufferskirts and weather those makes a big difference with the Warship. At least at 1 end. Looks very prototypical otherwise..
Noted, thank you so much, sadly I have no detail parts for this as I bought it second hand 🙃

But that’s exactly what I tried to do? 😅
