They look nice !!*ok*!! !*brav*! !*brav*!
I installed your CNW cars, only yesterday evening. Nicely done! !*brav*!
My advise on something? When you release the same car in different dirty liveries, include one with no graffiti. It would seem that is the case with this new set (5th shot).

Thanks for the feedback! I can try and look for a picture with no graffiti. You see my style of repainting is to make a copy of a picture of a car and paste it on the template. (It's also the easiest way *!lol!* ). For the CNW pack I don't think I found a good picture with the side completely clean or at least without graffiti. If I plan on making anymore repaint packs I will definitely look for one that hasn't been vandalized yet. Thanks again for the feedback. !!*ok*!!

Not being a repainter myself, I thought you made a basic shape and then applied any graffiti suitable for height and width over the base paint. When there is an untouched car (or just washed out in a different tonality) you may do longer consists with with 4 or 5 different cars.
BTW (after looking at Google), I suppose WIsconsin Central cars are still rolling around the tracks in the Midwest after they were acquired by CN.
Here the CNW intermixed with RRmods and other cars in the Chicago yard (route) where I do test my locos and cars:
