Gentlemen,
Nevermind, I changed my search terms and found some info.

If you have any advice though, I'll take it.

I've been using this formula from Rich Yourstone and it looks pretty damn good.

2:1 Rust:Grimy Black or 1:1 Tie Brown and Rust.

Yes... I'm in N... Also HO and 1:1

Necropost alert...


Ian does it matter if I use floquil or polly scale, or will either work as well as the other? I picked up floquil railroad tie brown the other day but is there that much difference between it and rail brown?

I don't think there is much of a difference between the two brands. However I only use acrylics when I paint.
