Thanks for your interest John......I think the keyword here is "more" 🤨 .....I haven`t done any weathering of note since I put away the paintbrushes several years back......aside from a few softened edges on a railroad track and my favorite old fat people, there is just the flatbed and the cabover ................and I imagine that folks here have seen those pics multiple times.......in case you missed seeing it John,here is a scene from this past April 😶Â

Yeah, I remember that truck. You have a talent! Maybe you should break out the old paint brushes again.
Other than reshooting some of my diecasts, I ain't been doing much model stuff myself lately. My enthusiasm comes and goes.
