Richard, I really like the way you have painted and weathered those wagons! I've been watching this chap over on YouTube:
He's a military modeller and in this video, he makes and paints a wall from a block of styrofoam. I want to try his methods on my wagons as he gets some great effects, much like what you have done with the ballast wagons.
What did you use for the canvas axlebox covers? My GF, who is a bookbinder and paper conservator, has given me a roll of Holland, this is a cloth with a very fine weave that I have used successfully to represent the canvas roof covering on a goods van.
Apologies to Steve for hijacking his thread!
