This is the best video I have seen on weathering. They usually start with "take your airbrush"! This gives us a practical way to do without investing in an airbrush. Thank you.
Hi Don, this is Ivana, yes I agree, not everyone has an airbrush and there is lots of techniques without a need to use it at all! I hope we will make more videos in the future to approve that.
@@ivanafricova7507 Please do make more. I really appreciated the demonstration and the use of shading colours.
@@donsharpe5786 I agree make more videos
Another first class video. Concise, well shot and no unnecessary talking. Extremely professional.
OK own up, how many of you had an ASMR reaction to watching this :) -- I could sit and watch her weather the whole fleet, the video was very therapeutic, and what an end result - amazing.
Owning up.
@@vxrdrummer So could I, and I don't even have any models. Although I must admit I do love her voice and accent.
Yep
Ah... so that's what it's called. Yes; give me more...
@@Beatlefan67 As I have said before I love the ASMR aspect of this video, even though its unintentional. If you like softy spoken ASMR like I do , try "ASMR Starling" truly amazing.
Marvellous demonstration on how to weather without expensive airbrushes... thank you very much, and please do more of these if you can.
Its great to see weathering without an airbrush. I want to get an airbrush eventually, but I need to start by hand and these are all great tutorials. Plus Ivana has the most beautiful hands. I have a weird hand fetish ha ha.
Wow!! Love the simplicity of this. Inspiring.
She can weather my locos anytime!🤣🙏 Seriously though what a great video, very talented lady, the use of oils is a gem of an idea. Thanks for sharing this.
Thank you; this is modelling artistry at its very best. The commentary is also exactly right, if only others were this concise and to the point.
That's a very, very talented individual. Extremely impressive.
What a stunning video. This should be in evry modellers video library. A video of such simplicity it will surely be recognised a a masterpiece in years to come.
Thank you so much. Cheers, Bob
I agree. She is excellent and her commentary is just right. And no distracting music or sound effects. I wigs there were more like her. :-)
This lady is so deft, and she knows how to present her efforts. Her commentary is exactly right. . Marvellous work! Thanks you. :-)
Great work Ivana. You made that look very easy! More videos from you in the future please! 👍
My dear ,watching you and listening to your voice is truly a pleasure. Thank you for doing great job.
Unquestionably the finest weathering instructional video I have ever seen. Combined with amazing artistry, this makes for a definitive and wonderfully illustrative example of the craft.
Dear SND
Normally, I get Ivana reply to the comments and questions. However, I will forward your compliments to her when she is back in.
David
I could watch and listen to Ivana all day
I think Charlie Bishop did all the photography for her 3-4 videos. Cheers, Charlie!
Great technique for those of us who don't have airbrushes. Thank you.
Fantastic video. Great to learn a fairly easy and realistic way of weathering without the use of an airbrush.
Superb job in renumbering and weathering by this gorgeous young talented lady. As she explained the processes on this video I was taken away to another place by her calm, soulful and relaxed tone of voice. I was so tuned into her speaking that I felt soothed while listening to this lady of McKinley. A mindful resting for Mental Health while watching a gifted girl showing her technic for using Oil Brusher paint in model railway uses. By the looks of the final results what an impressive finish by this medium to use as a weathering product. A smashing video tutorial and kudos to the lady of McKinley.
What a beautiful young lady
I could watch Ivana weathering all day! You make it look so easy! The renumbering was made to look easy too, so much better than my awkward fingers can achieve.
Stunning video and very inspirational
These "oilbrushers" are featured in a lot of recent videos. They seem to be very popular and versatile. Some fine techniques on show Ivana, Thank you.😁
From the other side of the pond.🇨🇦Excellence all the way around: Great presentation, great techniques for renumbering and weathering, and great results. I will use this. Thank you, Ivana.
I found my way here by a circuitous route from layout video to layout video. I'm glad I did. Although I am not a railway modeller I do appreciate the incredible work, dedication and attention to detail of those that are, and it is why I watch. This lady is amazingly talented. In it's entirety, I found this video absolutely fascinating, such a brilliant difference in the before and after, and in such a seemingly simple process. I certainly did not initially think that the weathering of the bogies and undercarriage was going to work. Wow!
Also, and it's a very personal observation and POV, in this age of 'fake', it was lovely to see a lady with 'real' naturally shaped fingernails instead of the plastic shovel-shaped ones that are common today.
Hi Jeff, We are encouraging Ivana to do another video. She has just had a baby and is coming back in for 1/2 a day here and there. She reads these comments and I am sure your kind words above will bolster her confidence to do another. Regards David
Very nicely done! You have a deft touch. Regards Stephen.
One of the best ideas I have seen got removing decals & weathering.. Fantastic thank you.
Excuse me!
Thank you Mark! I hope this will work easily on your models too.
@@ivanafricova7507.. This video has taken the modelling scene by storm. Best video tip of the year.
An excellent technique with great results and clearly explained, thank you so much. I'd be very interested to see how you deal with steam locos using those oil based paints. Stephen
Very nice effects...and a very nice piece of filming and editing by Charlie...
Fantastic voice and accent.
thank you for the tips,also you are very easy on the eyes
Great video - thank you
A lot of model rail enthusiasts incorrectly believe that the blue fading was the sole result of sun fading whereas the truth is that the sun does fade the colour but also locos went through carriage washers & the hash cleaner known as traffic film remover was caustic which removed the paints smooth finish & left it vulnerable to the elements.
Yep... Its how I remembered them - faded and slightly rusty. I believe locos only got a proper repaint once every 5 to 10 years
Another excellent tutorial and weathering by brush and oil based paint really well presented. Thanks 🙏
Great update today like it very much.
Wow what a fantastic result i will be weathering my fleet soon.
You are very talented. This is one of the best weathering tutorials I have seen. Thank you for sharing.
Can you be persuaded to do a steam locomotive sometime?
An excellent video, thank you for sharing
I have not seen this fading technique before - a dot fade yes, but this was a bit of a twist on that with a totally dry brush to blend. And I’ve generally fallen back to an airbrush for the dust and grime on the trucks. Really fantastic results, thanks for sharing!
Love the technique. I will be using it on my roster of locos at the Bickley Central.
Very nice
Not seen this technique before and that paint spreads very well. I was expecting the dots of paint to not spread out far at all. The results are very nice.
I use a similar method except add some decal fix to the water before placing it on the model. It softens the transfer and makes it easier to apply, especially if over a ridged area. I make my own waterslide transfers with a colour laser printer. Good job.
You make it look so easy.
Absolutely fantastic 👍🏻
Moving the new number around while still wet is easier using a toothpick. Gently moves the decal without absorbing any liquid and inexpensive.
Wonderful video and videographer, wonderful artist, too! So happy and just subscribed!

Really good tutorial, thanks so much for sharing
Wow, what a transformation. I feel inspired......
Fantastic video! Thank you
Thank you so much for not having any background music.
very good tutorial and it saves effort cleaning an airbrush i waited long to see a better way of weathering and this seems to be the wsy to do it. thanx for this video and showing us a very good yet easier way to transform our models into realistic appearing rolling stock and locomotives
Very insipring video! Some of the finest weathering I have ever seen. I can't wait till you tackle a steam loco this way.
Its coming Thomas. Ivana has been off on maternity leave, but she is on her way back.
Very effective techniques! Thank you!
Thank you. That was a very informative video on re numbering and weathering. It looked like too much paint had been applied but as you worked it, it clearly was the right amount. I probably would have been a little apprehensive attempting this prior to seeing your tutorial and wouldnt have used enough paint and got poor results.
You are so professional thankyou.
Very interesting video: I always like watching other people’s techniques on decalling and weathering. Thanks for sharing!
I listen to this video just to relax. And the weathering is excellent.
Excellent thanks for sharing so talented
This is an awesome video, i used oil paints many yrs ago but not with this technique so this is another tool to add to the toolchest and ty so much
Ivana,
10 out of 10.
Excellent job and an extremely lifelike finish. I suggest you demand a 50% pay rise from Dave! 😁
Hi Paul, this job is a dream job. :-) Can't ask for more.
Hi Ivana.
Yes, I bet it is a dream job. I was only jesting, as you've probably guessed. I'm glad you've found it extremely satisfying. It's just a pity that more women don't get involved in the hobby, instead of moaning at us men for spending money on trains instead of new clothes for them. I love your technique, it's rather unusual to say the least, so keep up the good work, and tell Dave to give you more video time with your weathering, as I find it an education. 👍
Chris, what a boring life it would be if us men had no women or no hobbies (unless, of course, we are gay 😁).
Thank you for your help!
Beautiful and very talented lady. Excellent video
Great video
Those oil brushes seem to work beautifully. Could we see Ivana do another loco or carriage sometime? Thanks :-)
Thanks Ivana. I use Dull coat, but other modelers also use a Krylon product, but I'll try your suggestion!
I wish I'd seen this video before I started to remove numbers and br logo on an n gauge loco. This is a brilliant and well explained video. Well done Ivana on your extremely well explained tutorial
Excellent, Thank You
A great video Ivana, very informative and some excellent techniques shown, thank you 😊
Glad it was helpful! We'll get her to do more....
This is an amazing video on weathering! Definitely inspired me to have a go.
You should! Good luck
Wow you made that look so easy! Typical McKinley Railway a great result makes me want to give it a go. Can we have similar video for steam and wagons.
Absolutely. Superb video. We need a steam locomotives, wagon and coach weather video!
That’s amazing to watch with superb results….I need to buy some MIG oils👍 and have a go…
Thanks for sharing that
Cheers John b😷
Well done. I have some of these Oil Brushers, but have not tried them yet. You showed me how to add them for weathering. Thank you.
Magnificent presenter
Thanks Ivana. Good job. Keith :-)
Excellent technique, I think I'll be giving this a try 👍
I feel very happy if we inspired you with this video! Thank you for your comment.
@@ivanafricova7507 hi there, I've tried air brushing in the past using railmatch paints. But I think your technique is the way forward.👍
Interesting - I have not seen this technique before. Using oil paints is a novel idea.
It’s a very effective way to weather subjects as Ivana has shown. I use the same products and a very similar technique on my model aircraft and tanks. It’s a highly recommended method. The oils do take days to dry though. 🙂👍🏻
A very informative video, using simple techniques to create a very convincing and realistic result. Thank you so much for sharing. One of the best weathering technique videos I have seen. Many thanks! Ross @eastcoastdcc
[thank, you for youre great helpful video]👍
great tutorial thank you very much
Very well done and presented. Could you also show how to weather a steam locomotive?
top video - thanks!
Very useful thank you
I wish I had a trusty assistant like Evana
Like the fade technique on the side of the body , but still prefer airbrush and powders on the bogies. Thanks for sharing
Whatever suits you better, I use usually both methods but some model makers have no airbrush facilities, so I recon is always good to know more techniques.
@@ivanafricova7507 exactly , thanks so much for taking the time to post this.
A very good presentation thank you. According to another RUclips weathering video using oil paints, if you put some of the paint onto card before use the linseed oil - which is the ingredient that takes days for the paint to dry - is absorbed, thus reducing drying time.
Thats a good tip. Thank you. I will tell Ivana..
Just discovered this fine video by accident.
Very well explained and demonstrated as well.
Thank you !
As it had been already suggested:
Can we have something similar for steam locos and wagons, please ?
I do look forward for further videos.
How long does it takes for the oil paint to be fully dry ?
As long as the oil paint isn't dry, is it possible to remove it and if, how ?
Is it necessary to add finally a coat of varnish (matt in this case, I assume) as a kind of protection ?
Best wishes
Dirk
Time for Dave to increase your pay!
Brilliant video,, made it look so easy and I intend to find out just how easy/difficult it is. with that in mind I'll be grateful if you'd let me know which laquer you use to seal the new number.
Oil paint, not enamel, has been mentioned in passing in Hornby magazine weathering articles. You've shows their effectiveness as you are not racing against time before they become unmanipulable. That looked a breeze to me. Only today a mate who's never weathered anything before wanted me to show him how. I think you have done that for me. Only problem is using the same foam cradle I do, is the oil paint taking 3 days to dry, you can't just turn it over and do the other side because the cradle would leave an imprint into the first side. Otherwise impressed.
Hi Andrew, this is Ivana, yes I agree that it takes more days to dry and this is the only disadvantage, but what I do, I turn the other side and do the same straight after. After I am done, I place the loco on flat surface and brush again both sides to remove all imperfections caused by touching uncured paint.
This is where a airbrush turntable might be more useful although a little more awkward when dealing with underframes.
Wow🤗 nice technic✅, nice women 👩🏻🎨....well explained...take care of you 🍀🌼🚂☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️
superp, i think i will now go and weather my first diesel
Nice work - just goes to show that an airbrush isn't always required, I tend to use brushes after an airbrush coat or effects etc.
Could I ask what brand of bushes you used for blending please, they looked particularly soft? Good brushes seem hard to find these days, I used to use sables, but they're becoming very expensive.
Wow !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@Ivana Fricova you just painted "yellow blue bus"!? The memory aid mnemonic for Я люблю́ вас "I love you" in Russian... 😅
Thank you another technically and artistically informative video. How do you seal the weathering so that the models can be handled in the future? Do you varnish? How to you protect wheels and window glazing from varnish?
Wow you made that look so easy. Can do a stream loco next please. Where you get these oilbrushes from. I have a lot of locomotive too weather.
Hello Ian, thank you for your comment.
If you are in UK, you can buy them on E-bay or in your local model shop. I am not sure where to get them in US, but I found this link form the company which makes them:
www.migjimenez.com/en/22-oilbrushers
Let me discuss with David if we can do next a steam loco, as I can see this is a repeating request.
@@ivanafricova7507 thanks for the information. I live in the UK on the East Coast on the humber. I look for these oil brushes. Look forward to seeing the stream video.
AWESOME. I was worried at 7:50 when you started to brush the grey. But you made that model perfect. So you used the light blue for a dark blue model. How would I do a tri-color model like Chessie which is Blue, Orange and Yellow all on the same side?
Thank You for an excellent video - I hope you do one for coaches & wagons, Can I ask what colours of oil brusher you would recommend to have as a weathering set ?
Cheers Kev
Hi Kev, they do quiet large set of these paint, I would recommend to go for these:
A.MIG-3524 Earth Clay
A.MIG-3532 Starship Sludge Bay
A.MIG-3535 Gun Metal
A.MIG-3509 Medium grey
A.MIG-3510 Rust
A.MIG- 3512 Dark Brown
and if you have lots of blue locomotives to fade, also
A.MIG-3528 Sky Blue
Don't buy more that 1 each, there is plenty of paint to last.
Just a quick tip: when the paint is still oily (sticky), you can also lightly brush weathering powder on.
Thank you very much and I hope you will do more tutorials 😀👍🏾
Great video, I like the idea of not using the airbrush to fade the loco. The use of sky blue is great too.
I'd like to know what colours would you use on a BR green loco?
We have a plan. Just waiting for Ivana to come back from Maternity leave.
