Prototype Information

Prototype- SIECO 50' exterior post boxcar.

Model Information

Athearn Genesis 50 foot exterior post boxcar. This is a fantastic model, with semi-scale metal wheelsets, rotating rolling bearing caps, metal crossover walks, etc. I used prototype photos for the various graffiti elements, and weathered the car to reflect a fair amount of use. I used fine-tipped paint pens for the graffiti, and a combination of chalks, oils, and airbrushing for the aging of the car. I am very pleased with the end result.
