Hi Steve, the tracks were first coated with a metalic metalizer called Rub n Buff. Then a black/brown/metalic wash was applied and allowed to dry. When dry the high spots were buffed off exposing the bright work underneath. In final weathering a black wash was applied to further darken and again buffed when dry. Finally I used dry pigments to dust over the tracks and again cleaned off the high spots and anything that needed further enhancing was hit with colored metallic pencils. Thanks Lee, Mojo still high I have already started my next build and will be posting soon. Allen, thanks Dude, means a lot. There are more pics. posted in the completed section. Cheers, Alles
