WP Harriman Coach #312
Sunset originally released this car as a SP coach. I stripped it and did some detail work to depict a non-air WP chair as seen in Exposition Flyer equipment. Trucks are PSC and transfers are Clover House. Enjoy!

Fantastic
Perfect paint! May I ask what gun you use? With an ordinary sized air brush overspray and fast drying could be an issue.
Thanks!
as usual....!

Sorry to disappoint, but I use a Passche Talon
Thanks, people!
Santiago,
Nice paint job on that car. Could you describe your process for painting and what kind of paints do you use? From the pictures, I would say that you bake the paint (especially on the roof).
Thanks
Yves
Great job Santiago.

Thanks, Yves. Panting is done with Revell enamels. For the roof I use black gloss. Black gloss gives you the darkest black possible, so when I satin coat I don't get a greyish tone. This car was too big to fit in the oven, so I "baked" with a hair dryer hahaha

Sarah, I thin these enamels with turpentine, they're definitely wet when they hit the surface!
It was brought to my attention by a knowledgable fellow modeler that this car could be a perfect model for a Jim Crow segregated coach. No ones favorite topic, but a historic one nonetheless.
Beautiful work Santiago. Are the chairs painted or glue soaked material?
Very Nice!!!

Thanks. The chairs are color plastic. I sprayed them wa flat coat to get rid off the shiny plastic effect
Thanks for your answer, painting is such an art. And you're a master.
Thank you, Sarah!
Santiago, how did you do the window blinds?

Nothing fancy, Carl. High quality paper in a close to raw canvas color.
