Rocking Out A Rock Island Hopper! Part 1 of 2.

[@barryfitz4692]

Great work 👍 Thanks very much for sharing your modelling journey. I appreciate how much work goes into producing video’s . The weathering tutorials are invaluable to the hobby and give us all courage to have a go. I hope you understand how much you and others influence the hobby as a whole . Thanks from New Zealand 🇳🇿

Dan ! So happy. Another weathering addition. Slowly learning your methods. God bless.

I use an in line water separator to prevent the problem you are having. They are not to expensive, but well worth the money spent!

[@NicholassTrainChannel]

Brilliant video Dan. I need to get some of those oil paints to do my weathering. They create a nice effect. Look forward to part 2.- Nicholas.

[@Amtrax_BrianB_001]

Been watching some of your older videos today. Nice...

[@jaxonl19]

Hey Dan can I have the hopper you made in this video please

[@DMVrailfan99]

Are you just using water on the q-tip to clean off the reporting marks? Great video. Thanks!

[@DansRailroad2011]

Correct! I just use a little bit of water and dab most of it off to avoid any water running out of the Q tip.

[@apiaristicone9585]

hey Dan, love you videos 8) I am in the uk and am trying to save some second hand model wagons (US) that someone has tried to weather (not very successfully) What is a good make of waterslide decals for ho scale US wagons please?

[@DansRailroad2011]

Look up Microscale Decals, or Smokebox Graphics. They have some great selections for tons of different roads.

[@apiaristicone9585]

@@DansRailroad2011 thankyou very much!

[@beeble2003]

@@apiaristicone9585 Alas, Smokebox don't ship to the UK since our idiotic decision a few years ago to make shippers responsible for import duty.

Best to place a water trap in the air line.

[@AbelG8781]
