- I've taken a brief break from the scenery and started to focus on some of the models on the layout. It's been ages since I got the airbrush out on the channel and I really enjoyed doing some weathering again.

soon as I saw this I made a cup of tea and a sandwich and settled down for an hour of great viewing!
Liking the humorous interludes you're introducing, ie: the 'Oh my God!' guy at the beginning.
Not a modeller at all or even a crank these days, but enjoying watching what you're achieving here - keep it up!
Humour adds to the enjoyment for me too. Shameless plug here, but let me know what you think of my layout? Not got Richards bravery of weathering locos, but see what you think.
Check out Simon's Brief Encounters comment Dave. I hope not LOL
That was very well done. You are they master as far as I am concerned. Thank you for the wonderful videos you out out.
Excellent as usual everard junction
i admire the attention to detail with this, top job!
Fabulous video Richard, it’s always interesting watching your videos and you explain everything well. Thank you for making these videos. Regards Gary.
Amazing and excellent work as always. A wonderful near hour spent watching.
Im a simple man, i see Everard Junction has uploaded, i drop what im doing and I watch it.
she wasnt so impressed, shes on the floor now.
Thank you for sharing your craft. I think you are doing an amazing job on your layout and watching you videos for a few yrs now I see how you continue to perfect yourself. I wish I had the room to build and even a bit of your skill in making it look amazing .. thanks again.
Another great video Richard. Some great info and tips there.
Another fantastic video Richard very informative and fits in nicely with the video you have done for us as well, many thanks and good luck to all those entering
Great video Richard. Some nice touches to each model. I'll be doing a how too GUV weathering video soon with the faded / chipped and that generally un-loved look. You captured the roof well on yours. Its so easy to over weather a model,, I've stood back and looked at 2 of my 50s and thought I've over done them! That said they're replicated on real images in the last moments of service..
Light weathering could easily be my weakness lol.
Excellent tutorial. I'd never thought of doing the door shut lines...
It's amazing what a bit of decent weathering can do to a model, from toylike to realistic. It really is a skill that's worth mastering.
I am close to weathering 400 plus N gauge wagons. This video was excellent and has given me lots of tips and thoughts. Thanks for sharing Richard. Cheers, Bob
Richard you are a bloody artist....both on your weathering, layout and your car! All the best from Oz!😎🇦🇺👍
Great tutorial Richard
Thanks for the inspiration. It is appreciated
Hi Richard, ... really admire your passion and attention to detail. I would never have the patience you demonstrate in each video. The presentation is also excellent and even though I am not a modeller myself, the end results show this to great effect so well.Thank you very much.
Absolutely Brilliant,so true to life
Excellent work. Attention to every detail pays off. Very instructive and easy to follow along. I am not a weathering person, but enjoy the skill on display.
Thanks for sharing, I really enjoy these videos. The GUV is my favourite.
Thanks for leaving the sound on the time lapse. I love hearing the shuffle shuffle sounds!! :-)
Richard great weathering techniques. I love the look of the used an older used wagons both passenger and freight.
Carry on mate
another wonderful video love your work
i have been waiting for a video like this Richard i will certainly give these weathering ideas a go on my own stock great video and cant wait for the next one.
Hugely informative and very useful information; thanks for posting your hard work.....great results!
Excellent video Richard and very informative, I liked the mk1nicely weathered without going too far Andy
This is an excellent video. It gives beginners like me the what, where, and why of weathering.
Great video that weathering is looking really great
Very well done. I have a VDA van in an alternate RfD livery (possibly earlier version), but with more subtle weathering, as these were quite new to Scotland in the late-80s era i am modelling.
Maskol fluid is a must have, really useful material
Your skill is admirable!
Great Video Richard, I will have a go at weathering some of my stock using your techniques, Cheers
Thanks for the inspiration. Your models look great.
Very helpful and does make a huge difference. Must take weeks with so many large trains you have. Glad you didn't make it too uniform and there's some more natural and uneven grime. Great job!
Brilliant work, Richard. Weathering makes all the difference. I enjoy your videos. I am building an n gauge layout.
Brilliant informative video.
Brilliant, you have given me the confidence to give it ago on a VGA. I made the mistake of using a small brush to start off with for the wash
Great work as always fella. Looking at the carriage I almost found myself scratching my arms from all the fleas on board!
Richard a great insight and will be so helpful in my own efforts, best wishes Paul at Sandling Junction
So good! Keep up the good work!
Thanks Richard for this educational video!!! I saved it for later use! Cheers Onno.
Extremely good video gives me some ideas cheers mate great work.
Nice assortment of techniques, and a good result.
I tend toward only using washed s and dry brushing. I'll have to give airbrush weathering a go one of these days. It really adds to the effect.
Wonderful video, very interesting and informative indeed.
GUV LOOKS AMAZING!!
Excellent video again Richard, always daunting weathering £200 plus of stock
Cool new video thanks Richard
Nice one!.....all part of modelling!....Great to see a bit of background on were you started. I'm rained off today so working on my n gauge up I loft 👍
Excellent tips, I've just got myself an airbrush to spray some diecast models but I'll definitely be trying some weathering too. I've got the GUV in N and I think that will be getting the same treatment.
I must say I really do like your weathering.
Its quite refreshing to see realistic looking weathered trains. More often than not people go over the top with it.
The only time I remember the trains looking really run down was at the end of the winter months (which your layout doesnt support, and neither does most others) and at the point when BR started to change over the private hands like Virgin Trains on the WCML.
Brilliant tutorial Richard. Cheers Greg
The weathering on the coaches really is, just right! :-)
Cracking video as usual Richard and great to meet-up today at the Hattons stand at Ally Pally. Regards Charlie
Great video as always. 🚂👍
Thanks very much for keeping up till 1:12am hahaha
Lovely job as always. I'm not a fan of over the top weathering that some seem to like, but your weathering looks just right.
Very good job Richard. I like the look weathered but I can't bring myself to do mine.
14:00 I have a reeeaaalllllly rivet-counter criticism of the VDA there - it has the pre-1960s overhead warning flash, with the large single lightning bolt. For the 80s it should have the version with two red lightning bolts with the word DANGER in between. Looks much better than the current yellow warning triangle!
Was great to meet you today.
Hi Richard. I will be in Ally Pally this WE, I'll do weathering demo/clinic at the MRC stand.
As I'm suffering frob a bad back injury that left me disabled (walking with a cane, and with difficulty due to a multi-staged discal hernia (L2-S1) doubled with discarthrosis (discs slowly degenerating)) I'll be most of the time at my stand.
A friend of mine will be coming with me from Belgium to showcase how to easily create a bloc system with signals usinng easy to find abd affordable components ( as arduinos...).
Hope to have a nice chat on sunday,
Eric.
Great Video
Impressive thanks.
Excellent video. I will use this for making scale aircraft models. I think I could adapt this for aircraft.
I attempted to VGAs.....more practice needed, you make it look so easy😀
Absolutely brilliant, now lets see if I can do that with my N gauge, cheers Richard.
Very helpful and absorbing video - thank you. Not sure I'm going to attempt such detail in N Scale. I have done some work on wagons which went reasonably well, but I will need a huge magnifier :)
The GUV's weathering looks spot on. They never got a wash. I saw lots in my BR days.
Agreed perhaps and I know it’s a small issue the door handles perhaps would show a slight whitening effect as Railmen and post office workers gloves would of worn some of the grime away Otherwise a really fantastic weathering job 👍
Amazing skill level
Aww hell yeah! Another video
Thanks for the excellent video richard, I am not far off trying my hand at some weathering, I am modelling in the mid to late 70's and I want my older 16t wagons to look filthy, working but not in their best condition.
I may try some vallejo paints for this, I have a wargaming store nearby and they stock the entire range.
Your modelling is top notch. But I like my things blingy and shiny :)
On the 47 you also have to remember the kick panels at the bottom of the door allways wore quickly,obviously
What airbrush would you recommend for n gauge locos? needs to be very fine
I see you've finally got 47576
I also got one nearly 2 years ago
Hi thank you for the ecellent video and advice. What mixture would you suggest for a black wash?
That weathering effect happend because its where the plastic is stressed/molded at the factory, microscopic holes
Some great tips there Richard, the only thing I think you manage to miss was the fact carriage washes miss the area from carriage ends to vestibules, where a bit more grim would be.
Black soot, streaking and staining around that exhaust Richard, also fuel staining and streaking on the tanks. I was a fitter for British Rail for many years, trust me these things got $hit up ;)
Great tutorial video. Though not bad at brush painting, I've not got a spray machine. So may invest in one.
Great job, Richard! :) I like your weathering style! One thing I miss though: some blackish varnish on the "oily" parts (wheels, tubes, bogies, etc.) would lighten up / break the similarity of the paint job. I can't wait your next video :)
by next the end of next year i am going to start my own model railway it's be all new to me i can't wait 😊
Very very nice mate!! Streaking on the loco maybe a tad heavy or uniform maybe? Love what you did to the windows!! Overall brilliant to see! Been watching from the start!
Great video Richard I will certainly use this for reference when I get on to weathering my stock , could you tell me what make of Matt varnish you use thanks.
Another superb instructional and informative video Richard. I noticed you don’t use a rotary paint stand for swapping sides. Love your subtle weathering effects.
great videos, loved watching them!!!!
Daveclass47 will be having a heart attack watching this!
😍😍😍
Love model railways
Awesome stuff. Think this will give me, and others, a lot of confidence to have a go. Thanks.
PS. Do you think using a really pale brown pin wash around the doors of the 47 might work? You’d get the effect but subtle enough for the white?
Not sure where I fall on the roof repairs...I’m not sure whether it’s because I’m used to seeing pristine roofs or not...another quality video though, throughly enjoyed watching as usual!
Love it when you do a weathering video, The wash on the doors really adds some depth. Looking to take my eldest to Ally Pally on the Sunday if he want to go. Will keep an eye out for you if we go.
Excellent detail as always... (Even to the point of the background music, which sounds very late-period-'80s/'90s Indie/Smiths/Cure/ to me!!!) xx SF
The effect on the panels is because you used plain water in the black paint.
The surface tension wont break so it mostly settles in the recesses then just as its drying the tension will draw it up and and coat the whole surface in varying levels of paint.
You should invest in some of the Games Workshop wash paints. Theres a lot to learn there with painting.
You should also look into using a paint thinner. both paint types do much better when thinned down. Its no different to a automotive paint sprayer spraying a car youve restored not thinning his paints.
Very well done, sir! But i have to ask... will you weather the Granada when it´s done? *grinn* Some fake rust, faded paint, different colour panels...
About the Granada, i haven't seen an update in a while. Is the layout taking up all your time? It wouldn't surprise me, as you have done a lot of work on it.
Great video as always, I want to start weathering and not had the guts to do it yet, can I ask some stupid questions please?
1. How much of paint and thinner do u add? As in quantity.
2. What thinner do you use for the stage one and again with quantity
Many thanks in advance
Super video Richard
The GUV is awesome, I'll be trying this in the future.
I assume you clean the loco wheels before use as this always catches me out, its also a bit tricky to do. The other thing I wondered about as Ive tried this but getting the bogie frames of the loco is extremely difficult without snapping anything, is there a knack to this?
Love the new layout
Cheers
Paul
Great vid!! what music it is, that you put on your vids please?
Gosh. Weathering. I am in the early (i.e. pre-baseboard) stages of an N gauge layout set in 1989. Just imagine doing all this to models half the scale! I have at least made some progress with renumbering in this scale.
Oh my god!
I noticed when you apply the wash you're applying the it as if the car were upright (a natural tendency since that's how we see the world). Since grime would fall due to gravity, why not flip the model upside down and apply the wash that way so that any pooling of the wash would be on the top of the detail rather than the bottom. A different color could be applied to parts of the bottom detail to mimic grime being kicked up by the wheels. I surmise that the effect you had of the pooled grime on the bottom detail happened when you sat the wagon on it's wheels and got the same effect. Just a thought, you're work is excellent in any case!
