Weshty Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Clucking bell. That is scratchbuilt?? In OO gauge? I'm frankly lost for superlatives. Saying "Very impressed" hardly cuts the mustard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garfield Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 Scratch built in O gauge Des. Beast doesnt even cover it. Keep getting drawn back to that picture to admire the man's craft. Tell you what, I'd be careful around him as he seems to have other-worldly powers. It looks like he's channeling the spirit of Cyril Fry...

jhb171achill Posted February 14, 2016 Share Posted February 14, 2016 Can't wait to see that one finished - a stunning model indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weshty Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Rivet punch, a good eye, steady hands and a good eye. A GW Models Rivetting tool makes it very straightforward. (Finally) got to use mine recently and was very impressed with it. A good eye still helps though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horsetan Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 If it's done by who I think did it he goes from scratch. Prolific is the word! He'd be the Irish Guy Williams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GSR 800 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 He'd be the Irish Guy Williams. Indeed! Wonder if he has built any more of these brilliant works of art... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warbonnet Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Indeed! Wonder if he has built any more of these brilliant works of art... According to the latest gauge o guild circular he's done 461, I'd say it's finished by now. I haven't been able to get to the club rooms due to work commitments but I'm hoping to return in the next few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
