4.0 out of 5 stars A great book for getting started, December 24, 1999
This review is from: Painting and Weathering Railroad Models (Paperback)
Excellent book. The author gives tons of useful techniques and methods and materials suggestions. He clearly knows what he's doing. The reason I only gave four stars is: there are sometimes alternate techniques, now available that are not mentioned. For example Rustall, or Modern Options "Instant Iron" and "Instant Rust." can be IMHO better ways to create the rust effects. But even so, the book is a must. It practically guarantees success if you pay attention.
