Modeling a Roof

A second look at the roofing on this Bachmann model's. The brown colour of the roof has been worn off to a grey black colouring.

This weeks wordless Wednesday photo is of a On30" Bachmann model seen at Trainfest in November. I really liked how the roof was finished with a brakeman perched on top. One can easily paint the roof with Floquil grime then dirty it up with PanPastels. Model Master wood colour could easily be brushed on for the same base color effect followed by some grays and black tones. Note the roof walk still has a lot of brown colouring left in it. Anyhow the roof finish is what makes this car stand out and can be easily used on my Maine two footers...George Dutka
