Great presentation !!! I’ll be following your channel !

Thank you so much! Glad to have you here!

Tim,your graffiti artwork is great on HO trains. Since I have N scale, l have to draw mine first with fine ink markers and soft colored pens ,mixed. I redraw quite a few from photos of graffiti trains and I make up my own. It would be very difficult in fact hard for me to draw on n scale models. Not with my eyes of 74 years. So I resize my drawings to accommodate my n scale models by using the HP machine. 🙂 It's very helpful to make decals this way. Maybe l'm cheating to do it this way but man it's easier than trying to squeeze the words into a small amount of space. It may seem that it takes time to do it but l throughly enjoy drawing. And I appreciate what you're doing as a young man and putting to use some of your talents and helping others .thank you for reading my comment. A friend, Mike

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

Thanks mike! That sounds like a cool way of doing it to be honest. Depending on what I’m doing on N Scale, sometimes I use a pair of reading glasses as magnifiers

[@GoViaorgohome]

Looks great. It inspires me to do more. We will need to do a “weathering Sunday” some week. Or a day where we come up with tags. I should really invest in better markers though…

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

For sure! That would be fun!

[@TheLocutus70]

I want to graffiti one of my box cars with your little spray can character.

[@Ace-kr6gu]

I came across your channel by chance and I'm glad I did. Awesome work, I've always wanted to do graffiti but really didn't know where to start. Thanks again.

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

No worries brother! H go lad to have you here!

[@frankrigatoni]

some things to note about freight graffiti. most freight pieces are called grounders as opposed to floaters. floaters "float" so you can see the botoms of the letters like your almost piece. but typically on freights the pieces get cut off at the bottom (no bottoms of the letters will be visible if that makes sense) also, writers usually are very careful about their placement, so a guy wouldn't t place the A from almost right over top of the numbers as the rectangle is going to pretty much delete the entire A leaving you with an LMOST piece. just some food for thought..

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

Thanks brother! Do you write?

[@btoonful]

Amazing work 👍

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

Thank you! I’m glad you like it

[@middleportjunction]

Wow! Looks amazing ❤

Thanks friend!! This is one of my favourite cars I’ve done. I wish I could keep it 😝

[@the_BRD_sub_byDonHennessy]

Practice with a sketch book is a cool tip, great for starting out and learning before ruining rolling stock. Cheers

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

For sure! I never used to do that. I learned pretty quick how important it is

[@MMRails]

Well… MOST of it stayed on…. Hahahaha.. hahaha… ha… ha.. Great job Tim! The 15 minutes flew by. Thanks for editing out the awkward pauses and all the times you picked your nose. Next time, please put a mic up close to the tape peeling off.

I’m not a mode train guy but just enjoy watching the passion ooze out. I watch it to relax and the end results are always great. And the added bonus of dad joke, I mean, come on it’s perfect. Keep it up. And hope the shows start up soon for you!

Great work Tim. It would be nice to get the younger generations involved in the hobby. My daughter really enjoyed model railroading until her teens, then high school and boys came along lol

[@jaybird111207]

That looks awesome Tim!! Great job and you are very talented. I learned some new techniques when I weather more of my cars. I like turning nice new shiny cars into dirt bombs all grimed up ready for more work on the layout. Oh and btw HO rulz and N scale drools!!🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤣 nah just busting ya. N scale I think you need to have a lot more patience 🤷‍♂️🤣 Thanks for sharing. Have a great day and happy modeling!! -Jason

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

Haha! I get that a lot! But I just tell people look how much I can fit in my tiny basement! 🤣

[@jaybird111207]

@@TheyMakeItLikeThat true story man!! I used to model N scale back in the day then I switched over to HO and it's a perfect fit for me. So much you can do with any scale. Just need that imagination. Happy modeling brother!! 🤘🤙😎

The over spray on the roof is prototypical. Athearn does it on purpose.

Not that it matters but the one on the right is a DUB not a throw up. It would be a throw up if it wasn't coloured in white Got some good weathering ideas for a train I'm doing so nice one.
