SOO Autorack

[analogbeatmaker]

Hi everyone! You may have already seen this over at The Rustbucket but I wanted to share here, as I always do. This was my first commission piece and is why I chose to do a SOO autorack...the customer requested it. The only mods I did to this model were replacing the plastic, molded chains with real chain and making the loopy airhoses using Hi-Tech rubber airhoses and copper wire. This model was mostly an exercise in weathering...and it still took me right at 70 hours to complete. SOO...here is the model I started with:


Here is the main proto pic I used:
