Diorama Update 7 – Maintenance Depot

October 3, 2024

It’s been a few weeks since the last update. With the wildfires raging behind the house and temperatures going over 40C (105F), it’s been either too smoky or too hot to be in the garage. 

Back to the modeling. I completely changed my mind about the Portakabins again. I 3D printed some new ones on the resin printer and airbrushed them in a lovely sand/beige. I now need to print out a new set of windows and doors.

I fitted the dirty windows on the maintenance shed and started to “weather” the building with some Vallejo Grime Wash. 

I’m impressed with the grime wash. I was trying to get this colour correct and was failing. I’m really happy with how this turned out on the container wagon below.

Here you can see one of the containers I made on the 3D printer being airbrushed in a Railfreight green colour. More on that next time.
