That was great seeing the process you went through to get the finished result. As you highlighted in the video I’m over the moon with the finish and can’t thank you enough. It still hasn’t landed on the rails but will do in the coming weeks. Thank you once again mate. Paul
Fantastic and really enjoyed the voice over. You really did sound like you were enjoying what you were doing and is that, what the hobbie is all about. Glad I came along for the ride. Kind regards Robert.
That was fantastic. As you dong it everything seemed so OTT, but in the end the way everything blended together was like magic. Thank you for the video.
Tony Hancock hi Tony I will admit that I question myself that I work at it too much, but it turns out as I hoped so I guess it’s proportional . Cheers Paul
Paul, I am most impressed. This was sent to me by a friend and I just cannot decide which part I like best - try the water! I am now waiting for some more ideas. Thank you. Mike.
Superb vide. What a transformation. A work of art t be admired for many years. Thanks for sharing. Would be great to see a tutorial on weathering a diesel, maybe a class 47? Keep them coming.
Excellent video, and enjoyed your enthusiastic commentary too. I think you meant Tim Shackleton, and it is Klear floor polish rather than Kraft. The new stuff actually works well for wet effects.
Brilliant result Paul and the narrating is very good as explains the process nice and clearly. I have had a go at weathering coal wagons ( I have not plucked up courage to try out a loco ) I would like to see how you would weather a wagon maybe a box van and an open wagon……………………………..Cheers Kev
Thank you for commenting through that i have found your channel and subed...like what have done to Paul jubilee class. no wonder he is pleased fab job. loco looks like its coming to the end of life and probably will end up in barry's yard....great talent...........Tony
What a superb job you made on the Jubilee class locomotive, as good if not better finish than some professionals turn out, but I suppose when you are an artist like yourself it helps. None the less fantastic job.
absolutely killer job! I've been looking into weathering a couple of BR era locos myself (14xx and a Hymek specifically), so this was a very good "tutorial" on where to primarily weather steam locos. I hope my attempt will be at least half as good as this
Lovely looking weathering I'm still finding it hard to destroy that pristine look, I know it looks realistic but it does tear at my heart strings. That's only me Keep up the good work Paul, Eddy xx
I guess it's because I stopped using them 30+ years ago, but I'm still a little surprised when someone says they are using Humbrol Enamels. Anyway, nicely done! For water effects I prefer the multitude of Acrylic mediums that are available. Liquitex, and Golden have a good selection. They are non toxic and non smelly, lol Golden GAC500 is good for still or slow water, good for drips maybe too, can always be thinned with water. I guess you already know that if you are painting on canvas as well
Nice weathering Paul, your converting me to use powders on top of an air brush base coat, not that i have done any weathering yet but may make a start once my track work is completed & wired for DCC. Tim Shackleton is the name of the guy who advocates there use of Craft something or other to simulate water spills. I agree with you limiting the colour pallet gives unity, I remember from my Art studies that any colour can be derived from the primary colours including black not that i have lifted a brush for 40 years. I do enjoy your vids.........Andy
Wow! That is awesome my friend. What a grand effect you've made! Well done :-) I was glued to this throughout. What a difference compared to a 'New' look paint job. Cheers for this! Iain
Give buff-able paints for metal work. I'm partial to Gunze but there are others. Also maybe look into pin washes. I uses oils to do them, but you don't have to. I like oils you know art school days. The floor wax or at least what we uses in the U.S. is Future. It's really just a clear acrylic you can brush it or spray it. I do love your finale finish on this engine.
Nice looking weathering job there Paul I have some American F units that need to be re numbered several of the A unit and I think 2 B units. I need to get together with my local club and see if anyone can help me out with it that way I use the proper numbers.
I really enjoyed the video! I saw some open wagons in the background at the end, and I really like the finish on them! Do you think you would ever do a video on how you got that look specifically? I'd love to be able to replicate it at some point!
Hi... great job!! Question: Dont you need to rotate the drivers, and , why does the paint not cause the driving rods to stick or not move smoothly? thanks!
Hi Paul.......once again a very enjoyable and informative video.....I love the way you do it.One thing I was interested in ,when doing the valve gear and wheels ,do you run the loco at any time to stop ghosting or do you just get in behind with the various brushes you use?Also were the loco's weathered to that extent while in service.I would have thought that a passenger loco would have been maintained perhaps a little better than perhaps a goods loco, as it would have been seen a lot more by the public.......just a thought!Once again thank you for your excellent and informative video,I thoroughly enjoyed watching.Bye for now, and stay healthy in these worrying times.Des from down under.
Hi Des, I make sure all parts are tackled , as for the condition I do agree with you, though research is important and I pour over many photos and always seek reference for more, before I use one, two or more to complete the project . So all my weathering examples are based upon actual locos of the day. Cheers Paul
It’s a nice detailed job...I always find that the Brunswick green is always to Matt tho.... locos got in this state, then they were cleaned poorly by crews, often leaving gloss areas with grime in the nooks and crannies. That would be much more realistic
Too much, in my opinion but great video. I stopped train spotting in 1964 due to the run down and neglect of the steam engine. I do have a collection 20+ model steam locos
This is my personal opinion I absolutely hate weathering like that. I think it's spoil for local and doing that .In those days they would have had people paid to clean the locos
Plenty of photographic evidence exists from the period showing how they could look exactly like this. They were worked hard and not every loco was kept in pristine condition.
That was great seeing the process you went through to get the finished result. As you highlighted in the video I’m over the moon with the finish and can’t thank you enough. It still hasn’t landed on the rails but will do in the coming weeks. Thank you once again mate. Paul
It was a pleasure and great fun to do chum, glad you liked the result, can't wait to see it back on your rails.cheers Paul
Fantastic and really enjoyed the voice over. You really did sound like you were enjoying what you were doing and is that, what the hobbie is all about.
Glad I came along for the ride.

Very Nice weathering work. I like . Thank you for this interstings tuto 👍😊
I am glad that you enjoyed it, if you are subscribed you'll find others I have done and more added in the future. Many thanks Paul
Paul Apps i suscribe to your Channel. It’s realy interestings. Have a nice day😊
I don't even have the words......truely beautiful work. I have saved this video for me to use as reference in the future. Thank you for sharing this.
Larry Harper Hi Larry many thanks for your kind words, I’m glad it will be of use down the road, cheers Paul
Wow! awesome job.
Walter Ritter many thanks for the kind words cheers Paul
This is indeed a wonderful art! :-)
looks great
Great explanation on how you do the weathering and create a 3d painting. From start to finish it was fascinating to watch Paul x
Wendy S I have to admit I do love the process Wendy , cheers Paul x
Really enjoyed watching this very inspirational. The finished model looked excellent.
Great job inspiring Sir
Paul, I am most impressed. This was sent to me by a friend and I just cannot decide which part I like best - try the water!
I am now waiting for some more ideas.
Thank you. Mike.
Superb vide. What a transformation. A work of art t be admired for many years. Thanks for sharing. Would be great to see a tutorial on weathering a diesel, maybe a class 47? Keep them coming.
I have a couple to do class 33 and 24 at some point. These will be older Lima models before I let rip on my main stock, cheers Paul
That looks so good, just as I remember the real thing in the early 60's.
MrDavil43 sadly dad never went near a railway , so I never had childhood memories of any . Cheers Paul
I shall make a poor attempt when it gets a little warmer . Very informative. Thank you
Awesome job Paul!! Paul must be a lucky man! Stay safe. Cheers Onno.
Onno Mulder Well he told me he was delighted with the result so that’s a win for me , cheers Paul
Excellent video, and enjoyed your enthusiastic commentary too. I think you meant Tim Shackleton, and it is Klear floor polish rather than Kraft. The new stuff actually works well for wet effects.
Thanks on both points, Apologies to Tim. He is an excellent exponent of the craft of weathering and yes I meant Klear, cheers Paul
Brilliant result Paul and the narrating is very good as explains the process nice and clearly. I have had a go at weathering coal wagons ( I have not plucked up courage to try out a loco ) I would like to see how you would weather a wagon maybe a box van and an open wagon……………………………..Cheers Kev
Hi Kev yes I have done one on Bauxite wagons last year, but will do some others real soon. stay safe, Paul
Paul - You Too and I am also watching you painting channel for some relaxation 😀👍🏾

When it comes to limited editions, or preserved loco models I have the same thoughts, cheers Paul
A brief explanation of cleaning the paint from the contact surfaces of the wheels might be a good idea - it's a tricky job
I guess it's because I stopped using them 30+ years ago, but I'm still a little surprised when someone says they are using Humbrol Enamels. Anyway, nicely done!

Yes Tim, very authoritative and caused me to seek a bottle of KLEAR. cheers Paul
Wow! That is awesome my friend. What a grand effect you've made! Well done :-) I was glued to this throughout. What a difference compared to a 'New' look paint job. Cheers for this! Iain
M M Hi Iain and thanks for the kind comment . Cheers Paul
Johnson's Klear is a floor polish I use to help make paint flow better and helps give a smoother finish.
Give buff-able paints for metal work. I'm partial to Gunze but there are others. Also maybe look into pin washes. I uses oils to do them, but you don't have to. I like oils you know art school days. The floor wax or at least what we uses in the U.S. is Future. It's really just a clear acrylic you can brush it or spray it. I do love your finale finish on this engine.
Nice looking weathering job there Paul I have some American F units that need to be re numbered several of the A unit and I think 2 B units. I need to get together with my local club and see if anyone can help me out with it that way I use the proper numbers.
TheSonofruss Hi there it’s an area that I know little about, though one I do need to tackle myself for other projects, cheers Paul
@@Sandlingjunction my problem is the numbers are metallic why I need the help
If you mix washing up liquid with ordinary water colours you can get a robust finish when it dries so you dont need a spray gun.
so think I have a number off 009 locos and stock..... so when do I drop them off? .... as ever superb work, just like your work in your studio!
David Wimble cheers chum I’m just gearing up for your first shipment lol , cheers Paul
I really enjoyed the video! I saw some open wagons in the background at the end, and I really like the finish on them! Do you think you would ever do a video on how you got that look specifically? I'd love to be able to replicate it at some point!
Elsbridge Productions yes I can recreated those in a future video for sure. Watch this space as they say, cheers Paul
I have an O gauge working model of a Jubilee, which my father built from scratch in the 50's. No 45600.
Hi... great job!! Question: Dont you need to rotate the drivers, and , why does the paint not cause the driving rods to stick or not move smoothly? thanks!

Amazing tutorial, thank you. How do you clean your brushes after using Humbrol Maskol? I ruin a lot of my brushes with this product :(
Fantastic job! Really came together with the powders at the end. What have you used as a final sealing coat?
It’s a nice detailed job...I always find that the Brunswick green is always to Matt tho.... locos got in this state, then they were cleaned poorly by crews, often leaving gloss areas with grime in the nooks and crannies. That would be much more realistic
Great informative video Paul, just one question how and what do you use to seal your work after completing it thanks
Great stuff Paul ,What brand of powders do you use ,Regards David
David Cook Hi David, I used only the Humbrol range on this one, though I also have other brands to hand , cheers Paul
Too much, in my opinion but great video. I stopped train spotting in 1964 due to the run down and neglect of the steam engine. I do have a collection 20+ model steam locos
OMG, this is like a derailment on the cover of Model Railroader Magazine. What is this world coming to???? Regards, Thailand Paul, Agent D&RG Ry.
try starting at the beginning instead of jumping forward at the start!
If you want to checkout another modeler that does weathering on UA-cam see DANS RAILROAD 2011 he is from
here in the US.
25:15 Better re-rail 'er !
haha don' worry about your dialogue ;-)
M M cheers for that lol , always good to know, Paul
This is my personal opinion I absolutely hate weathering like that. I think it's spoil for local and doing that .In those days they would have had people paid to clean the locos
No problem each to their own.
Plenty of photographic evidence exists from the period showing how they could look exactly like this. They were worked hard and not every loco was kept in pristine condition.
