In this final installment, Model Railroader magazine’s Eric White addresses how to prepare parts for painting, apply paint using an airbrush, reassemble the truck, and add decals, all before putting the 1940s era cement truck into service on MR’s HO scale Beer Line layout. After watching Eric’s two videos, check out the related story in the June 2017 issue of Model Railroader magazine!

great little truck in detail finish
thanks for video
**Update** Bestine Solvent and Thinner now goes by the name: BEACON
Bestine is no longer available…any suggestions for substitutes?
Nicely done Eric… they fit right in!
Very nice. Would love to see a article/video from Ben Lake on making the 3D print. This is going to be a huge change to our hobby and could put a number of small business to adopt or perish. Maybe even selling copies of their print designs instead of the actual product. Much easier to stock and transport files rather than little products.
Great videos Eric. I enjoyed the article in the mag. This was a treat. Thanks!
Nice work Eric, that is a super rendition of an old-time cement truck. Good job looks good on the layout. Thanks
