Who has a major HO scrap yard ? { Photos added }

Thanks for the kind words. As to weathering being art or craft is debatable, I like to think it the former, but regardless it’s certainly a fun flow of creative energy.

The scrap pile and load are comprised of chopped up bits of left over styrene model parts and sprue. Air brush painted with a couple different shades of rust colored paint and weathered with Bragdon powders and some dry brushing with grey paint and colored pencils.

No secrets and very little innovation in my weathering efforts. Just the results of trail and error experimentation with various techniques and materials learned from modeling magazines, videos, internet sites and forums. And I’m always on the lookout for new methods and materials.

Regards, Peter
