One of my favorite parts of the hobby is getting hands-on and making a model truly my own. I recently weathered a set of boxcars using pastel chalks and a bit of rust wash, it made such a difference in realism. I also scratch-built a small engine shed from foam board and coffee stirrers, and it turned out better than I expected!
Modding locos has been a learning curve, but swapping out couplers and adding LED headlights gave my old diesel a whole new life.
I’d love to see what others are customizing! What’s your latest project or go-to technique? Let’s keep the creativity rolling!
