Wow! Looks great! Your paint finishes are nice and smooth and that is a nice yellow. What brand of paint is that?
I am finding that a can of Rustoleum works well for the cabs. It's easy and quick, and I can paint outside when it is cold, as long as the can is warm. HuskerN
You have definitely found the balance between achieving a smooth finish over a 3D surface without obscuring the details. Something that seems like it would be difficult to do with a Rustoleum can, no?
I opened this thread and saw that first photo and asked myself, "That's N scale?" That's a sweet model! Very well done!
