Among the best I have seen. Nice work.
You certainly have a gift for weathering, Steve. Your personal record has been awarded ten merits.
Beautiful work once again. Thanks for sharing it with us all here!
Excellent work.

outstanding work---
Love the cattle car! Super nice. Malcolm
hi sirt, nice job on the cars.you do great work.
Thanks Guys, I forgot about this post from back in Jan.
You will enjoy the result of decorating these types of cars. There is so much detail in the wood grain that undecorated cars often go unnoticed.
Using a wash then colored pencils are some options that can be applied to really make the wood and rivets standout.
Choosing a mix of colors can simulate older or newer replacement boards as well.
Give it a try; I’m sure the outcome will be very rewarding.

Your weathering is outstanding as always Sirt! You've got the rusted roofs down perfect.
How many hours do you invest in these models to get these kinds of result? I'm sure you're faster now than when you started. Just curiou.
Butch
Two to three hrs. per car or diesel.
I missed this the first time around. Excellent!
Outstanding work, Steve!
Peter
on the B&O car, what is the technique for coloring the planks individually?
Beautiful models!
All very nice Steve, I've got to give that a try sometime.
Excellent work as usual.
Steve
Excellent work. The pencil tip has been terrific. It allows a lot more control for fine details.

Another beauty, Steve. Nice touch with the poultry poo.
Beautiful work, Steve! Bo
I swear SIRT.... your work is museum quality! I agree with Don earlier in that this is art!
I have a soft spot for stock cars.....nice work. Those roof walks really stand out.
All my favorites.....a wood car, outside braced with vertical mounted brake!!! NICE
Steve, my favorite in this collection of photos. They all are just beautiful.
