How-To Model Realistic Weathering - Covered Hopper - Budget Supplies

[@boriskucke7053]

Great Job. Its good to see you back at the benchwork. Thanks for sharing

[@shawnpowell5876]

Man that 2Bay hopper car turned out awesome! I like your method of weathering especially using Artist Chalks! When you were adding the Chalk mixture to the Hatches etc, they probably thought omg that car is ruined lol. I knew it wasn't but definitely wanted to see the steps you took to bring it all together! Nice job Joey and appreciate your time and effort! Cheers from Delmar, Delaware!

[@williambryant5946]

You mentioned using a blender to get the weathering chalk finer. That works for all types of things in modeling. Like grinding tree leaves for forest scenery. But for smaller scales when you need super fine stuff a coffee bean grinder is the best. It will powder just about anything that is dry. Not rocks but most everything else.

Always good to hear from you Joey

[@jolliemark6294]

As always you inspire, like all weathering vidios everyone has a little different approach and your looks a lot simpler than most.....thanks for sharing Jack 👍👍👍

"Your train of thought left the Station" LOL. Great video as always, you just need more of them. Thanks, Russ from Oregon

Nice Joey - I’m gonna try this on a gondola I want to look very beat up. Thanks for sharing!

[@DeathByFishing]

Going to try this on a couple of my N scale cars.. Thanks, great video.

[@gapadad2]

You use just about the same methods I did years ago. The only thing different is I would lightly mist the entire surface with aqua net hair spray when I got it finished. Nice job....

[@mysticrailroad]

excellent demonstration. thank you.

[@uptownphotography]

Well done. Looks great. Philip

[@yrunaked4]

Great to see another video from you Joey, Classy work as usual and so cool that its pretty much the same technique as the track weathering video. No need to reinvent the wheel. Stick with what works well. Cheers Rob

[@TheJpec361]

I wondered where you ran off to...the trip looked like it was a lot of fun.

[@JohnMullerJDGCTRy]

Great post thanks so much. You have a new fan.

[@markjolyn94]

Love it! You did an amazing job.I have been using chalks for years on my train stuff,and my model cars. And like you I always get asked how it is sealed.

[@spencerbass7142]

Looks great.

[@caseyvillemodelrailroad3877]

Very cool... Try some black coffee wash, when dry it leaves that oily black rust sheen you see in the wrecking yard... allways great vidio s...

[@154Colin]

What of the smell?

[@caseyvillemodelrailroad3877]

@@154Colin no smell as its cold dry coffee and seem s to stand up to some handling, ...

[@williambryant5946]

Awesome job.

[@robertblack3452]

Great job Joey, really enjoy your videos and techniques. I have the same weaver hopper, well mine is undecorated to be done in the interchange on my On30 railroad. I’ll be looking for more great ideas from Trackside Scenery

[@michaelmcdougall4527]

👍🏻👍🏻🚂 Great Stuff

[@jrf8221]

Good work!!!

[@Phoenixknight79]

that is amazing, and I love the way you did it all makes me want to try to do it....

[@154Colin]

Great!

[@rjl110919581]

thankyou for great detail video lie way do your weather from Australia

[@GabeandGarrett]

Love the technique but my wife and I couldn't watch the video due to speeding up the video while the camera is moving, literally unwatchable and made us have to step away. As a videographer, if you do fast motion keep the camera still on a tripod and even then use it very sparingly. It's better to just show real time and then cut to the future area real time again rather than shaky fast motion for that long, it's smoother, easier to watch and we know it's a cut to a later time. I say this with all the best of intentions, as for your teaching and methods, top notch and I subscribed and look forward to more videos.

[@Kevin-ev7hw]

Hey Joey, why dont you use some Latex rubber gloves that you can pick up at Wally World??????

[@louislankford8614]

Awesome video! I love how you do your weathering. I am having trouble finding artist powered chalk. Could you tell me where you got yours from?

[@nemmrrc]

I can't find that Color Place flat cheap spray paint at my Walmart anymore. Where are you finding it ? Thanks for the cool video.

[@tracksidescenery]

I noticed that the mart stopped carrying it a while ago. Lowes had some last time I was there. Might not be that $buck a can, but close enough.

[@TheJpec361]

Lowe's has a no-name flat black that's 99 cents a can...they bury it along the floor so they can sell you those $7 cans at eye level...

[@nemmrrc]

Jeff P I've tried the Lowes and Home Depot down on the floor cheap rattle cans and they work great. But I can't find any other color but but flat black 🤷‍♂️

[@ant-1382]

So many of these modal railroad video's are great with there scenery. But the trains are so plastic looking. A bit of weathering on the trains and cars makes the whole thing pop!
