Trains all year long for me. Mix in a day to the beach or out on a boat.. Graffiti is looking great. I love a good foreshadow.

Howdy from the other side of the bridge (Michigan's Thumb) where we have all 3 seasons. Winter July and August. Just found your channel and watched a couple of your videos so far. Interesting stuff.

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

Haha thanks Dwayne! I know, graffiti is an acquired taste. But sometimes you just gotta have it for the realism Thanks for watching!

[@TheyCallHimDietSeth]

Thanks for the tutorial! Found your video on reddit and really enjoyed watching it. I'm also an N scaler and am just starting to learn how to weather/graffiti some of my cars. I love seeing all of the different techniques used by different modelers as I browse the various videos- there really is no right or wrong way of doing it (aside from the techniques that you've tried and won't talk about again, of course)! Keep the videos coming. +1 Sub

[@TheyCallHimDietSeth]

Also, have to say that I'd never realized there was an American/Canadian side of the CN box cars - and I see those all the time. Fascinating!

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

Thank you so much!! Glad to have you here!!

[@TheyCallHimDietSeth]

@@TheyMakeItLikeThat I'm glad to be here! And am definitely looking forward to more content! I'd be interested in the RC truck stuff, too, so feel free to share as much of that as you'd like!

Nice job Tim, and I too periodically have to go through my colors 2-3 times to decide on a background color to collaborate with what I've already used. The arrow you used b4 the word GO worked perfect with it! Certainly enjoying your videos and appreciate your time and effort to make great videos! Cheers from Delmar, Delaware!

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

Thanks buddy! I’m glad you appreciate the little touches

[@Ferrocarril_Chicago]

This past year I've gotten into doing graffiti on my trains too, and I've had a lot of fun with it! The techniques I use are brush painting and paint pens. I've never tried markers though. Your work is super awesome too. Very realistic looking. Do you base your graffiti off of existing designs or do you create your own designs? I like to create my own designs for the most part, but I've done one or two based on existing designs.

[@TheyMakeItLikeThat]

Thanks friend! I mostly do my own thing. I’m pretty much always making it up as I go 😜

[@yeenus3691]

when u said you only had 359 subs i was stunned. the quality of the vido looks like smb with over 100k
