Album: MOW flat cars

Here's an overhead view of my second attempt at weathering 9007's deck. I used a wire brush attachment on my Dremel tool in order to give the plastic deck a more worn look, which had the added benefit of exposing the light grey P2K deck underneath the Bragdon weathering powders. Among the clutter I added were ME ties (whole, as well as shavings), ME rail, strips of Chart-Pak tape (painted a mix of rust and bare steel colors to represent steel banding of various ages), some ballast, and a few weeds made from ground foam.
