Bob, Try the PrismaColor pencils. I've had very good luck with them for adding a spot of rust on a bolt or helping to pop the grain of wood runningboards etc. They have a binder in them so they stick better than traditional colored pencils or chalk pencils.
While on the topic on PrismaColor products, their markers work great for coloring wood or the edges of paper. Expensive so not great for mass coloring but touch a marker to the bottom of a board to add a little "moisture and rot" from ground contact on your buildings.

In use they're very much like a crayon, so you can have lots of control for very small areas where you want a distinct localized effect. I have recently tried using artist oil colors that come in pencil form. They offer even finer control yet. In all these cases no over spray is usually necessary. The pencils don't do well on glossy surfaces however so dullcoat first. Bob Werre BobWphoto.com [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
