It is said to be a model of Ichqs-u 377 der Deutschen Bundesbahn (DB)/Interfrigo. Does anyone know if this car actually has a real prototype? The reason for asking is because I want to find photos to make a prototypic weathering.

What can possible be more dirty and rusty than a originally White car?! Okey.. I'm not entirely happy with the result, but it was a Quick work... As usual.. It's me!

Joined: 02/01/2006(UTC) Posts: 872 Location: Stockholm, Sweden		Hi! Looking at the nice picture Markus published, it seems the car has a yellow tint. I weathered a second car 4415, using a more deluted black wash and layered it with airbrushed "Sand". Brought the color appearence a bit closer to the prototype picture, even though I do have like a mile to go... Here's in comparision to the previously weathered car.
