djkonore Posted June 13, 2012 Author Share Posted June 13, 2012 (edited) I just finished a rake of 8x Fuel Oil Tank Wagons that I converted from Bachmann Shell BP Tank Wagons. I moved the ladders to the sides, removed the decals, re-sprayed them matt black and applied the transfers from Weshty. (192 was weathered by Anto) This is how they turned out...

Conor. You could add some detailing to make it even closer to real thing. It looks pretty much identical except for the roof vents and side grills. Can I ask what make is the baggage car?

Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Conor Photobucket can also be used. I know Boskonay was looking into increasing the size of the photo up load.

Weshty Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Conor, lovely job on the bedford. A few simple ways to reduce your image size are 1. Press CTRL and PRNT Scrn button and copy into microsoft paint or microsoft photoeditor (if you can find it on the web) and then save. It will reduce the size down to 50-200k based on picture complexity 2. Open up Microsoft office picture manager and go Picture / Resize / Custom width and height and enter 800 in the first field, this will also significantly reduce picture size.
