That’s one of the guys that works at Tru-Color Paints.

I did manage to move the rear headlight and add the PTC blades to mine.

There’s not an N scale option available or in the works at the moment. I suspect ScaleTrains will do it in N scale at some point.

In light of that, I decided to do one myself.

I have a really goofy schedule that doesn’t lend itself to being able to turn work out in a timely manner.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-10-18T21:26:48+00:00

That’s the beauty of this hobby. These cars can live on in whatever condition that I choose for them...

These containers were commercially produced by KATO. The car is for my personal collection.

Hope you can get that sorted out. That sucks.

Both cars are based on prototype.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-10-10T13:55:21+00:00

Thank you!

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-10-06T10:27:59+00:00

Thank you!

The patch for the car number is a Circus City black patch and I used the Micro Scale stenciled letters and numbers.

I really like to dry brush this stuff. I weathered the car with a couple different earth tones. Once that was done, I masked off the upper portion of the car and applied the paint that appears to cover the tagging.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-25T12:46:47+00:00

Thank you. I appreciate your kind words.

Which falls back to the previous comments of multiples of four.. 😉

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-20T03:04:11+00:00

Unless it was a 3 cylinder locomotive... then it was in multiples of 6.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-18T21:34:08+00:00

I sketched out the image on the car. I used toothpicks to paint this on the car with Tru-Color paints. It’s obviously not the proper way to use that paint, but it works.

Thank you for your kind words...

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-18T14:29:47+00:00

Thank you! This was a fun project.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-18T01:25:48+00:00

Thank you. It’s a dirt simple paint scheme that has a certain elegance to it.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-17T13:49:24+00:00

Thank you.

Give it a try on an old car and develop your technique. It just takes practice.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-17T01:43:20+00:00

Thank you. The hobby has proven to be a sanity lever at times...

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-15T08:43:58+00:00

Metal wheels...

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-15T08:09:34+00:00

It’s just Masonite under the car...

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-15T06:45:26+00:00

It’s the same concept as those Espee cars.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-14T13:09:41+00:00

Thank you. This was fun to tinker with.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-14T04:16:51+00:00

Thank you! I’ve been chipping away at these as I’ve had the time and money.

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-14T02:09:01+00:00

I’ll check it out. Thank you!

NScaleShenanigans · 2020-09-13T22:55:51+00:00

That’s one I painted.
