Spokane, Portland and Seattle Taconite Ore Hopper
Image information
Description
The base is a Stonysmith Shapeways kit - Taconite ore car II. Since I don't have the possibility to airbrush it I used a Tamiyama offwhite base coat in a spraycan and then brushpainted the car with Polly Scale SOO Red. I know the paint is a bit too much and rather uneven but for a first attempt I have to say I am pretty happy about it. I bought a few Micro-Scale decal sets but didn't really think of what colours I had that would match the decals - hence the Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway decals. I am not sure it there really are any SP & S two-bay hoppers around and I know that I used a decal for a capacity of 100000t but...hey...I can improve my next efforts.
