Hi buddy. Hope your ok 👍🏻 Just come across this and found it really good and interesting. Cheers Stevie 😎🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@BuntersYard]

Hi Steve. Thanks for your comments and thanks for watching. I’ve got lots more of dodgy wagons in the eBay box, so hopefully you’ll find the rest interesting too👍🏼

[@clipperrail8988]

That’s a work of art and has brought a budget wagon to life. A lot of inspiration showing what can be done with cheaper models. Thanks for taking the time to upload. All the best, Colin

[@BuntersYard]

You're very welcome. Glad that you enjoyed it

[@spiralfirst6488]

Unbelievable. Lots of talent, and relaxing video presentation.

[@BuntersYard]

Thank you. Glad you liked it 👍🏼

[@timsully8958]

This is a splendid ‘how to’ video. I have a box of these and wasn’t sure how to approach them. Now I have an idea! 😎

[@BuntersYard]

We have some other ideas coming soon for tank wagons

[@charlie1872]

Excellent tutorial

[@danielwalker2613]

Less is more !! .... I think you've overdone it with the rust powder. ... This wagon now looks like it's been stored on a disused siding for many years, rather than one in active service. ... You forgot to add the hazard placard decals - applied to all fuel tank wagons from the mid '70's. ... A very interesting tutorial Mr Bunter.

The transformation is amazing!

[@BuntersYard]

Thank you

[@Mapplewell_Park]

Hi, transformation is great. Given me a lot of inspiration for my old Hornby stock 👍

[@BuntersYard]

That’s good to hear. Thanks for watching

[@starpawsy]

This is brilliant . ALthough I would add a dark "dribble" of fuel residue from the filler cap.

[@BuntersYard]

I'm always in 2 minds about the oil runs. Can easily be overdone

[@starpawsy]

@@BuntersYard Correct. If you think you've done enough wearthering .. then you have.

[@TERRYBIGGENDEN]

Excellent. Very convincing! :-)

[@BuntersYard]

Thank you. Very kind of you to say so. I appreciate you taking the time to join us today 👍🏼

[@TERRYBIGGENDEN]

@@BuntersYard Thank you. I love seeing model wagons and locos weathered . I don't model myself, but really appreciate watching and the interpretations and methods involved. :)

[@BuntersYard]

That’s great to hear. Thank you

[@tonyroe2299]

I've been looking for a set of ladders for an old TTA Wagon. Did you make them yourself? If so, would you sell them?

[@BuntersYard]

Yes indeed. Message me on Instagram and we can sort some out for you. Link to me Instagram is in the description. Speak soon
