Promoting Excellence in HO Scale Vehicle Modeling

Deer Run Coal Mine International R-190 Box Truck - By Mike Wheeler


Mike Wheeler, first-time contributor, submitted this Deer Run Mine supply truck model. The truck is a Classic Metal Works International R190 that he decaled for the Deer Run coal mine using decals left over from a Walthers kit. Mike says the part of the hobby he enjoys most is weathering. Mike used Pollyscale grimy black to drybrush the cab and a wash of tan and brown acrylic paint from Wal-Mart to weather the chassis, box, and tires.
