  • Hi Folks,
    I’ve had a go at weathering one of my Accurascale class 37s with weathering powders, this one I wanted to do quite grotty, so I knew powders would be good for this as youve only got to look at weathering powders and your hands get mucky! Hope you enjoy eve if not your cup of tea 😃👍
    PS Need to get in touch with me for any nonsense reason? you can email me at doubleodave@hotmail.com
    As I always say thanks a million to all my subscribers, and thanks to everyone that watches my videos, if you haven’t subscribed please consider doing so, I like my subscribers quite a bit more than my none subscribers I almost love them, not quite love but better than friends😆
    Thanks to the commenters and folk that share these on, they’re intended as light hearted entertainment, some are absolute crackers some a bit more serious. I love the model railways, I love filming them going about their business and I love chatting about them. No one in my house is interested in listening to me chat about them, hence I chat to you guys. Feel free to ask any questions.
    The intention of this channel is to come at a different angle from the usual and do my own thing which may or may not be everyone’s cup of tea.
    It gets me some peace up here in the loft though so I’ll keep it going. I only have a small fleet as they’re all the new sound fitted models and it’s a new hobby so don’t expect a different loco in each video. Hope you like this one, cheers! Dave

      Hey cheers Michael, glad to see you’re still watching 👍 I just think if I make it look shocking bad, I could sell it on the bay and buy another 😆 so far I’ve been happy enough with what I’ve done - with the airbrush too you can do the paint so thin the layers build up nice and steadily 👍👍

    I normally spray a model with Vallejo clear before attempting weathering.
    That way I can rip it all off with some alcohol when I stuff it up.
    Nice job on the madman weathering. btw. I should have had the snip 2 kids ago.🤣

    Thats great. Weathering powders are fantastic .If a mistake is made ,they are easily corrected.Matt varnish is needed to give the surface teeth for the powders to adhere to. Ladies eye shadow can be used as well .The non metallic ones being the best. Dont tell your Mrs though as I still want to live

    Hi Dave, I am with you 100% about getting the wife involved. I first started on youtube 12 years ago. It wasn’t until my daughter told me to focus on one topic.
    Since then I have busted myself doing how to’s, long format, live and shorts in an effort to grow to grow the channel. While doing this I make an effort to communicate with anyone who comments and I am quite happy to comment positively on any enthusiasts channel who make an effort to post their channel.
    I am not a sexist but I wonder if my channel would grow if I had my wife do the intros but not sure if she might think I am trying to take advantage when she doesn’t know steam from diesel
    Great work on the weathering and keep posting

    Another brilliant video Dave. Thanks for the entertainment. Your comments about Dawn cracked me up. You are going to have to do a brief cameo with your missus just to prove a point. I did see that Dawn got angry with someone for suggesting that she went braless to increase her numbers.
    Your idea of the matt spray to begin with was inspired. I must give it a go but probably starting with my 10€ coaches.

      I was going to buy some cheap locos to practice on but even old none working were going for 40-50 on the bay so I’m too tight for that, and I missed the local show to try and drop on some bargain bin broken stuff hence why cracked on with the premium models (like a madman!)
