HO SCALE Covered Hopper Paint & Weathering Tutorial (basic rust, patches, graffiti)

[@Panzermeister36]

Another of my videos on weathering HO scale covered hoppers can be found here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jomyq2WKmNaYeKM

[@russrote6344]

Love the weathering and the Panzers. I'm planning a WWII era train layout with both German era trains and tanks and other vehicles. I was hoping to do it in O Gauge common in the US...but apparently not in Germany. Any recommendations on scale (G1 too expensive for me) and locomotives and flat cars to load tigers onto. I love the DB Class 52s, though pricey. Anything similar? Thank you in advance.

[@geraldbrooks2763]

More trains please. Would love to see a really filthy locomotive 🚂

[@Panzermeister36]

I have a GP38-2 I am working on :)

[@TrainsandDioramas]

It's great to see how military modeling techniques and materials can be used so effectively in model railroading world. Loved it!

[@SouthDown]

Yes, more trains please. Insane skills and jaw dropping results.

[@stephenbridges2791]

Nice job. Those weathering techniques are really applicable to just about any genre of modeling. I have an interest in 1950's & 60's railroads.

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you!

[@district2productions]

Same I love Santa Fe and southern pacific

[@splitrock323]

Well done, thank you. More model RR stuff is always welcome with me. I learn so much from you and other military modelers about the nuances of weathering.

[@russell7995]

Love the model railroad stuff! Oils for the rust seems to be spot on. Thanks for sharing.

[@davidmarlow7936]

Please do more trains or start up another channel specifically for trains. You are so talented,I'm getting back into model railroading after 30yrs . Keep up the great videos!!

[@Panzermeister36]

I will keep positing model railroad content here occasionally :) I have another covered hopper weathering video to release in a few weeks

[@davidmarlow7936]

@@Panzermeister36 Glad to hear that, I look forward to your videos. Take Care.

[@nothanks1627]

You sir are a master at this. I absolutely love weathered and graffitied train cars and locos. Your creations are breath taking🙏🏻👌🏼👍🏻

[@kevinb9327]

I really appreciate your RR videos. Thank you. 🚂

[@kevinb9327]

Don't get me wrong. Some of my best friends like armored vehicles! 😁

[@mattw9667]

Yes please, do more. Great techniques and the models look real when you finish.

[@mike_burke]

Hi Evan, many thanks!! - and more railroad related stuff please (I am a little jaded with tanks) :-). All the best.....

[@Panzermeister36]

Certainly :) I have a couple more projects in the background

[@jonfoisy1237]

Freight cars are a great place to showcase weathering techniques because you can't over do it. It is impossible to over weather a freight car. You can beat them up as much as you like. In reality there are some real rolling wrecks on the rails. Great weathering subjects!

[@jeffmurphree2937]

Very nice video, even better model! Yes, please add more videos for us model train builders! I model O scale, 1:48 not the erroneous 1:43. Thank you!

[@jerryvolpini7987]

Excellent work👍 Really, this is where the techniques that we use on armour models come from - model railroad builders!

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you very much! I agree :)

[@stevetheengineer]

I like the trains / Railroad stuff as well as the AFVs

[@ericsainte290]

Amazing result on that hopper. I know well of the MiG brand as I'm using their products to paint and weather buildings and railway equipment too (I model British Railways in OO scale - may-july 1944 period GWR - and in N scale - 1980-1985 British Rail era, focusing on 1982 and the Falklands conflict period) and your techniques will definitely be of help. An other advantage of the Oil Brushers on the artist's oils is the near absence of linseed oil in it, which causes cracking as the paint dries. that's why when I used artists oils I had always to "remove" the oil first by depositing the paint on a paper towel and later on transfering it on the palette. Here I have the paint all ready and pre-diluted and I also can use just what I need and won't have that much waste like with artists paints. Can't wait to see more of your "railway weathering" videos.

[@garypyke1576]

Excellent job. I would love to see more of your work on freight cars and locomotives.

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you! I will do more of these :)

[@max_scalemodeling6845]

Please do more Railroad weathering your hopper and boxcars look amazing 😍

[@Grainexpress]

Yes! Please do more! Love your videos!

[@Panzermeister36]

I will feature some more model railroad subjects soon :)

[@locomotives9217]

Very well done. I like the train weathering projects.

[@railscanner]

You have my vote for more railroad subjects please. Lots of good take aways here. Well done. Well illustrated.

[@foreverplastickits138]

*Very good step by step, good choice of the vehicule (at the base it's a big rectangular box), 👏👏*

[@Mdolezal65]

Awesome job. Please do more videos like this

[@aj3751]

Please please please make more train videos! Of everyone I've seen so far, yours come out THE BEST

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you, I appreciate it. I will do some more soon, over the holidays when I have more free time.

[@max_scalemodeling6845]

Thanks for sharing your weathering technics with us. Your hopper looks amazing. Perfect to start my US railway weathering.

[@mattjtouma]

Dude this is the best weathering tutorial I've ever seen. It always seemed intimidating, but you make it look so easy and straightforward. Please keep doing more model railroad videos!

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it

[@salbrunetto9043]

More railroad equipment please! I can’t believe you hand painted the graffiti! In the preview, I thought for sure those would be aftermarket decals. Incredible skill.

[@Panzermeister36]

More to come!

[@panzer-meister]

Hi friend, I'm glad that I could watched your new video. I love the rusty effect on bogie especially. Anyway, you might be busy, so could you please take care of yourself. Greetings, NOB

[@JLSCALEHOBBY1]

Great stuff man! You nailed it .. I was waiting for the next video in our tank build, but this was awesome, I am not really a huge train guy but you made it look so so great i would not mind checking out another one... mabey make another channel dedicated to Ho scale stuff.. dunno just a thought.. but amazing!

[@Ricks135scalemodels]

Very nice job. You continue to show your diverse talents.

[@richardcolemanjr3749]

Informative video. Weathering freight cars is interesting because every car on a freight train weathers differently. Even if the road numbers are in the same series.

[@edduke8527]

Love to see more MR weathering. I’m a model railroader!!!

[@lawrencereid9375]

Looks like the real McCoy. GREAT job! I'd love to see you do more railroading weathering. Techniques you demonstrate have application to any number of subjects. Thanks..

[@Christiane069]

Yes, Yes, Yes more railroad subjects. Found your site not long ago. I like to watch your military channel for weathering ideas and techniques. I am more of railroad guy.

[@Freebeer773]

Excellent work. At first glance I thought it was a real hopper!

[@panoramix3192]

Amazing work and tutorial. Thanks for inspiring.

[@debbiemilka2251]

I am thankful that you have done these model railroad related entries. I appreciate all of yoyr vids and I've been watching the armour series to see if I can adapt what I see there tomy MR projects. So, yes, please, do some more train weathering and similar.

More to come! Thank you.

[@dlbraly]

Great Job! that looks cool.

[@shawnpowell5876]

Great video of weathering and that hopper car turned out great! The rust effects look like the real thing and I'm totally impressed with your work! Thanks for sharing your videos and I'm viewing them from Delmar, Delaware.

[@OScaleMike]

I would LOVE to see you do a slightly rusted black (steam era, 1940s) truss bridge! I've spent several years scratch building a model of a prototype. I'm hung up on how to weather it. I've taken some prototype photos and played around with scrap pieces, but haven't come up with a pleasing effect yet. I've tried the hairspray and salt without much success, so I'm currently working on a slightly weathered and faded acrylic black base and over spraying a thin rust color over it, and adding oil paint streaks by hand. I enjoy your work, and would love to see more train weathering. Well done!

[@philRminiatures]

Inspired and wonderful job once again, grafftis are perfect...and add a lot to the realism! 👌👌

[@alainaarrhodge5900]

Nailed it! Absolutely love it. Very informative video, thank you so much. As a model railroader this is VERY helpful.

Outstanding work! Please make more instructional videos for the new to the hobby folks (like me!). :)

[@DansRailroad2011]

I really like the work you put into this! I look forward to more trains!

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you Dan! I was just watching your video on the AEX hopper you put up today. I am working on a Peavey hopper that is exactly the same base model you used from Intermountain, so I will find your video very helpful. Your use of oils for much of the weathering rather than acrylics and pigments everywhere is something I agree with too...oils are such a useful tool and I love how easy they are to blend around with a dry brush. My end goal is something like this: www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=4978137

Beautiful, thanks for share with us. Regards from México

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you. I will have another video soon on weathering black-coloured railway equipment.

[@shawnpowell5876]

I've watched your video of this particular episode again to remember the colors you mixed for grime on the sides and undercarriage. Your method with the airbrush is easy to pick up. And I have 12years experience with an airbrush where i use to do car tags and painting R/C bodies. Thanks again Panzermeister for sharing your videos along with your time and effort! This hopper car turned out awesome and the grime color is spot on perfect! The other thing I like is how you airbrushed the entire car even the top!

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you so much :)

[@shawnpowell5876]

@@Panzermeister36 I'm using your method and the results I have are amazing! I'm really enjoying doing weathering work and doing my own rolling stock for my h.o scale layout. Once we get moved into our new home I'll start building my L shaped switching shelf layout that's 10'x10'x24"

[@Panzermeister36]

I'm glad you have found success with my techniques! I always hope my videos are helpful like that. I'm also currently working on a shelf layout that's a similar size. I will show it in some future videos.

I shall take you to some train stations and facilities when you get over the pond one day, our trains are pretty cool i think.

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you Michael! Honestly lately I have not had much time for modelling...this video was something I filmed probably 5 or 6 weeks ago. I've done a little more on the StuG III prototype. In January I will have lots of modelling time again so I look forward to then :)

[@RollingThunderModels]

I don't really care about the subject, the techniques are what count for me! I'll watch tanks, robots, figures, cars or railroad carts if its an interesting video. And your video is a great demonstration of weathering techniques! Keep up the great work my friend!

Cool vid Evan. I'm becoming a bit of a convert to the oulbrushers. Thought they were a gimmick when i first saw them, but they are really useful

[@Panzermeister36]

Thank you Mark :) yes I agree they're a bit odd in how they made the bottle, but the oil paint inside is excellent quality which makes it worthwhile! Hope you're doing well.

[@StevePickett-ze8sj]

Do more trains please! You have a gift! Excellent work!!!!

[@rapcreeperproductions3269]

You should get some model power military action series rolling stock. They have flat cars with m47 pattons on them and more.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

Very nice!!! 👍👍👍

[@whiteknightcat]

Suggestion: wash off some of the acrylic from the COTS LUB panel. Those typically get re-stenciled often enough that they're usually more "fresh" looking than the surrounding paint.

Excellent weathering job. Wished I had the motivation to do this with all my HO rolling stock and motive power. Thanks Panzermeister good video.

I can get the same effect using acrylic paints. There's a medium you can add to acrylic paint to keep it open so you can work the paint. I never paint graffiti on rail cars because I model a period when there was no graffiti on railroad cars. Cheers from eastern TN

Q: What is the Quick Mask product? Who makes that and is it easy to use? Thanks.

It is made my Wilder. Many other companies make masking fluid. Micro Mark makes "micro mask" and humbrol makes "maskol". Those are probably easier to find than the Wilder product I used. It is very easy to apply and remove.
