Railroad making in December
Hi folks,
I’m not very busy in logging railroad projects at the moment, but here and there, I find other projects to be done. Like this sweet one here.

Merry Christmas, Gerd

[LVLC] The new cars got weathered
Hi folks, yes, I postboned the weathering part on the new cars for a long time, but finally, I started with the three new freight cars. This is how they looked before. And here after the airbrush-finish. I’ll add some remains of loads (wood blocks, bark, sand…) and some clutter to get them finally finished. […]
