Quiet simply the best weathering video I have ever seen , thank you so much!!
Wow, thank you!
Super tutorial! Thank you!
We're glad you enjoyed it and got a lot out of it. 2024 will see Weathering Series #2, so keep an eye out for it around April 😊
What an excellent strategy guys. I’m hooked.
Regards Charlie
Thanks Chadwick - much appreciated! 🤓
Well, have to say sorry Mike, but I'm on side with Jon for this round, powders wins it for me every time - with occasional use of sprays and washes - which is essentially what Jon ended up with anyway after spraying the Railmatch on there.
A good trick, worth noting!
I agree. I really liked Jonathan's technique, especially with the powders, etc. I'll be giving that a go for sure!
Jonathan’s techniques for the Mineral wagons is excellent and delivered a great result. It gave the mineral wagon texture as well as colour.
Thank you for this very instructive video.
Very interesting and helpful techniques, I do like to point out one thing, please clean your wheels running surface before putting them back on the track, excess paint will rub off and can cause serious havoc to the power pickup of locomotives.
Thanks for the tip!
Part Two will be released next Friday and can be watch when you sign up for a free member account. Parts 3-4 are part of the Premium Subscription which costs £3.99 per month.
Great series. I have learnt a lot.
A very informative and interesting video. I fall into that majority who shy away from weathering (preferring to use the likes of TMC and grimy times for their weathering services) so it was nice to see how it could be achieved at home using simple techniques. Very realisitc. Keep up the great work as always

Thank you for the feedback and great to hear it has been helpful 😃
I enjoyed that, I did attend a model show recently were a chap was giving a 12t ply-wood box van a whole heap of rust weathering powder, he was saying at the time that these type of vans rusted away quickly! I did ask him how timber rusted? His reply was thet didn't use ply-wood it was light sheet metal!! 😵💫🤣🤣
Great tutorial, very much appreciated. I'm already looking at getting some old wagons to practise on. Will you be doing a coach session? Cheers.
Judging by the series trailer video, it seems there is a video bout weathering coaches coming up :)

Very informative tutorial. Not keen on powders myself, tend to be a bit too messy and wasteful.
It's down to technique, powders actually require far more skill to use correctly than an Airbrush does! - keep practicing with them 😀
Really interesting video and learnt a lot. I’ve only ever weathered cheap 2nd hand stuff never my premium models always using Grimy Times which is local to me. Really enjoyed the video thanks 👌
I love it too. I have Bradley Manor running on Westhaven.
We’d love to see a picture of 7802 on your layout. You can email it to us at hornbymagazine@keypublishing.com
I’ve Embraced Weathering and Detailing to Enhance Locos or rolling stock that were part of a job Lot and have long outlasted their “Best Before” date - The Mineral Wagon results here look Realistically Fab, and if “Hard Realism” is the objective then Top marks have been achieved, although most modellers I would hazard a guess that they aren’t using Studio lighting on a modest 8x4 Tail chaser may find the Results a little dark, which is something I’m always wary of and some times Less is More, so to Speak - Great tutorial, many thanks 🙏🏻👍🏻
Thanks for the feedback and that’s a good point about lighting.
Go buy a hornby dublo METAL loco - you can dunk it into any paint stripper. Still have a blank metal shell to play with.- even old 3 rail works for weathering.
Thank you
You are welcome 🤓
Really interesting and inspiring chaps. Just a quick question, did Mike varnish after applying powders? I'm assuming so or wouldn't it come off with handling?
Yes, typically you want to varnish after powders. However sometimes the varnish can dissolve the powders further. I tend to find doing heavier powders coat is best if varnishing as it’ll ‘knock it back’ to a medium powdered finish.
We did varnish the powders, but only lightly. Too much and you can get a white fog occurring. A case of less is more in a single application.
Apply a fine coating of excrement coloured material to everything below roof level. A bit like a dull varnish.
Is this on key model world for subscriber's?
Parts 2-4 will be on KMW 😊
Nice tutorials.
Is it a good idea to dip a paint stained cotton bud into a bottle of clean thinners?
To me that is encouraging sloppy work behaviours.
Just saying.
As all wagons suffer surface damage, especially wooden ones, how would you tackle distressing the surface itself, before weathering? Scrapes and dents from heavy objects would create dark marks where dirt might accumulate.
I've not seen any videos on that.
I assume that would be using tools to modify the molded body of the model - but then that's not exactly an 'introduction/beginners' skill. Great idea though!
This is a great idea, but as @scarlettfoxx909 suggests is beyond the scope of this series. We will add it to the list for future guides 😃
I want to ask you if I bought these steam locomotives and wagons from you how much is the cost
Hows V499 going?
Has anyone counted all the adverts. Now I get there's a trade-off and accept it. But advert 6.30 of video advert 4.40 advert. I guess it'll be the same at KMW.
RUclips does that automatically. It's like that on most channels with videos over 10mins long. The longer the video the more adverts.
@scarlettfoxx909 and it can be edited so as not too.
Parts two-four will be advert free on Key Model World 🤓 Just pure weathering from start to finish.
@@hornbymag I won't be watching then
@@dinmorejunctionmodelrailway yes because £3.99 a month clearly breaks your bank account. You don't get everything in life for free you know!
