        UPDATE

        I have managed to do a load of weathering over a couple days and, nearly added this to the completed section...then I realised, there still is some bits to finish off before I call this done.

        I have greyed the blackwork, weathered the lower hull with a mixture of greens, sanded back then rusted. Finished wiring the other set of stanchions and painted the wire. I did the same for the top structure as I did for the hull but, not as pronounced in rusting etc, I used a spot technique-a toothpick and just dipped and dotted-took forever LOL.
        Made a tarpaulin and weathered that, repainted a plastic basket and added some coal/briquette stuff, added a mobile generator-made this ages ago from my old inhaler parts.
        Then I did the cargo, painted and weathered some resin barrels and made some sacks.

        It has been all sealed with a matt varnish.

        90% finished I reckon with just some small detail parts to do, I will leave her now for all the paint and varnish to fully go off and harden.

        The rust looks brighter than it is as due to the flash on the camera.

            Yeah, not far now. By the end of this week she maybe finished.
