CELX 1124 20,700 Gallon Non-Insulated Tank Car

 Seventy One

A 20,700 Gallon Non-Insulated Tank Car. The focus was to be a dirty underside. Small graffiti. I added a little bit of rust and grime to the tank seams to make them pop a bit.

Seventy Two, Three and Four

Details of the end of the car. Work on this car was done on acrylics.

 Sixty Five

Here we have another commissioned work. This is an Athearn tank car kit that was given to me assembled. I did a medium weathering job with some rust and went light on the graffiti. Weathering was done with acrylics, rust with oils and graffiti with paint markers

As a side note, in searching RR Pictures Archives it appears that CP mostly used these cars for MOW or internal purposes.

 Sixty Seven and Sixty Eight

Close up of the rust and of the "streaking" letters. I did the streaking with several light washes of acrylic paint.

I took the idea of the red paint off a prototype photo

Twelve.
Here is a commissioned tank car I did. Not to heavy on  the rust but made it nice and dirty. Graffiti was again a Blair Line decal, but I re-worked the whole decal this time.

The car is a Walther's Proto 2000 UTLX 16,000 Gallon Funnel Flow Tank Car. No added detail beyond the weathering.

 Thirteen.
Here is a detail shot of the graffiti as well as a decent shot of the trucks and wheels.
