Been weathering the Lionel 2019 BEAST! About halfway there. Comments?

It looks very much like the real thing. Perhaps some more contrast in the front part ?? But hey, that's rivet counting...

Looks very natural and realistic so far. Looking good!

The front was changed to a single stack when the UP sold them to the Clinchfield. Thus I figured they would be less weathered. Also the quality of coal? I will darken the stack a bit.
