And now it's finally finished (well as far as me taking a picture of it)

No it is not finished, it is now a test bed for weathering

Nicely done, that looks spot on.
The slightly iffy looking deck is superb. Are you going to do any more of them?

Forgot to add,
Are you going to let on how you did it then?
I for one would be most interested.

Lovely bit of modelling. I like your attention to detail.

It is indeed, in fact it's absolutely fantastic. I'll echo Jims request for more details.

Cracking stuff, I love the light showing through the decking.

It looks really grotty - well done!

Glad you all approve. I have not done any weathering in anger since painting figures in Warhammer 40k in my teens.

The planking is just lolly pop sticks with spacing which allow the light to show through.

I find to achieve decent looking weathering always use a picture of the real thing for reference. The paints I used here were a mix of Humbrol enamels (they are back to being quality paints again as they are no longer made in China).

Nothing special has been done with this wagon, just dry brushing and being restrained with the paint

Just superb..... the weathering effect is so good, very convincing.
