Small HO Scale Layout Build - Ep. 14.1: REALLY Grungy Weathering And a Change of Heart

Over the years, I’ve developed a style, like many modelers do. If we look at weathering on a scale of 1 to 10, where 10 is the dirtiest, my modeling usually falls in at about a 5 or 6. Definitely not clean, but not "Depression Era” dirty.

So, when I decided to build a dirty urban shelf layout called "The Grunge" some people were surprised. People who know me suggested that I rename the layout and build it out in a manner of other layouts and dioramas I’d built in the past.

After hearing that, I had a choice to make. Do I stick with what I’ve traditionally done or try something new? Watch the video and find out.
