I just finished 3 IM tanker kits and tried out some Bragdon Weathering Powders I picked up at Springfield.  I used an old LL boxcar from the junkbox to experiment on, and it looked so good I put a new roofwalk on and lowered the underframe-looks pretty good. 

Next up are some Undec Altlas GP7 shells to assemble to GP20 mechanisms and paint up for the PRR, and some sharks to decoderize.

Careful, Tom.  When you finish your "To Do" list, you die.

The IHB nw-2 is finished, but I'm writing an article on "how to weather black" and using it as the model.  So no photos until the article (if ever). :)

The MP-15ac will look great with the new radiator (thanks!).  I can't wait to see it myself. ;D
