WEATHERING a DJ Models 1361- mainline loco to NCB Project

[@ewanfawkes2708]

Nice little loco there. Maybe at some point you should do a collection video to show how many locos you've gotten over the years?

Thanks! Oooooo love the idea- maybe when I hit 300 subscribers I could do it! Much appreciated man! Olly

Slice the NEM pocket off.... do it, you know you want to go past the point of no return where you can only do 3 link. Theres also the swindonised fox walker 0-6-0 in "preservation". Absorbed by the GWR before grouping swindonised, lasted past grouping, sold into industry and still around today.

I was tempted but currently I use Kadees- but 3 links are tempting! Was given a packet a while back. Maybe! Wow I’d never seen that before! Looks great- I’ve also just seen someone convert one from a 1361. Maybe if one comes up cheap! Thanks! Oliver

Hi oliver Hope you are well my friend Yes am unsure on this class by both manufacturers. But you done some fantastic work on her. Love the history too. Maybe you should take up a cr pug or a railroad 0-6-0 or 0-4-0 locos it be interesting to see how you improve them Fantastic work Keep safe arp

[@heaptoncollierymodelrailwa6011]

Hi Adi, Hope your well! From what I understand both have flaws (for example this has splashers when it should not) which is disappointing considering the RRPs! Ooo! Now I do have 2 spare CR pugs in my care- what this space! Cheers Oliver

Nice work, but I think the cab should be touched up when you add the crew! Also- how did you remove the branding from the tanks?

[@heaptoncollierymodelrailwa6011]

I agree- now you mention it it does look oddly clean! I used an etched pen- worked wonders!

[@lukenoble3319]

Daaaaam that's a looker init. Recognise the music over your insta account, but can't place it? The weathering is absolutely mint though, come together so nicely and the editing/format/narration/photos just creates a video that flows so well.

[@heaptoncollierymodelrailwa6011]

The class is really well proportioned for an early 20th century tank. Dunno I just googled music most people know. Thanks man I’m pleased with how it came out! Yeah I’m sitting comfy with it now! Got a few in the pipeline as we speak Cheers Ol

[@mattseymour8637]

Very nice weathering! What paints and techniques did you use?

[@heaptoncollierymodelrailwa6011]

I used a mix- railmatch and standard acrylics! There’s a video out in a few weeks about my Kerr Stuart Victory where I chat about what I use!

[@mattseymour8637]

​@@heaptoncollierymodelrailwa6011Arh yes I like to use the Railmatch frame dirt for around the frames and for the soot and general muck I like using a mix of pigments for a dusty look.

[@heaptoncollierymodelrailwa6011]

It helps bring it all together! The Victory video is here kzbin.info/www/bejne/enaYXqGpgN-Bn6csi=UrJNSpd3BdTJuYND
