Drilone, Incredible builds and paint!
What are the secrets behind your weathering and what paint media did you use on the all city styles train?
For instance, how did you replicate the older graffiti faded after the train buff chemical bath?
The tunnel diorama with the lights and third rail and sh* is on point.

Thanks guys...
The All City Styles was totally experimental but it worked. I sprayed it greey with primer, then with a big painters brush added white, let it dry after 3 thin coats, then did some graffiti, then i put 5-7 slightly watered down coats till i was satisfied. then airbrushed the colors and added more tags and outlines. the key is multiple coats... gives depth.
