This was a lot of fun to work on! Weathered based off the prototype in the mid-2000s but with my own slight twist. The grilles and fans were first by using acrylic blackwash. Rust and heavy dirt on the trucks and frame were done using acrylic paint, while the general grime around the whole body and exhaust soot on the roof were done using powder. No airbrush required, just a drybrush and Testors Dullcote for sealing the powder. In total, this was roughly a 1-day job, but I staggered it a bit.
