Been uses washes for the Aircraft models for eons so it is a nice effect when done right an when using the right shade and not too dark or black. you should check out some tank weathering vidoes on the Hairspray technique, How would apply that on a loco!!

I know what you mean!! Enamel all the way for me, I find If you matt coat it the wash wont flow as I want it too. Interested to hear about your technique though. I leave it the model as is but be careful of the printed letters when your taking the wash back off as some of the baccy stuff comes of pretty easily!!

No worries, No trade Secrets, everything is out there and yes I do a wash of a thinned dirty black and more of less take the whole lot of again. I only use he Tenscrom for the fuel and oil, nothing else. For rust I use pastels only as other rust effects are too proud. any things else just ask. G

Just a reminder that were kicking off a bit earlier tomorrow at 1100hrs. Loads of stuff that is being sold and sold and some great exhibits on show so don't be shy if you down town boy, Say hello!! I will have my own little table there this year Keep to the wall and mind the buses. Cheers George

Gawd thats so nice, The Whitewash building and rusty roof is a beauty, Is that Wills sheets you used?

Been mucking about with this for the last year or so and decided to get it ready for the fair to pose some stuff on. I gonna get a layout done for next year for sure....Oh and thanks for the comments lads. The paint and Glue as you can see is still drying....

Been busy over the last few days but time is not aplenty due to the other half working late evenings, Downside of the cabin is I cant leave the kids inside on their tod so stuck inside the house and the work rate has plummeted... Done a 071 for myself this week and bunged a sound chip in, Eamons Vids really show the best of the sound off. I have some Taras built of which is one behind the loco. As my tripod is loaned to fiend I have not got shots of those.Had these done for some time but had to finish them off.

Jim spreading the word frm Hawkins street it seems, If it is there which it does not look like it is it would be worth the trip up on Monday for sure. Mind you driving 4 hours in the rain that is forecast does not seem like good fun.

Marks only have the Irish ones, I picked up a mine at an airshow in July, Hope to be able to get some more at Scale Model World in Telford. I believe they can send to Europe now from what I have read on another board so best give them a ring and see what the current Situation is. Most people at this stage have this postal problem overcome with couriers

Function 15 on the DCC sound Decoder!! LOL

Bitteen of Video. Forgive the Ladies gabbing in the Background

Another dit done today, come up for lunch they said!!, 3 hours work and the Fun bit you could say was started. We saw the 1st engineering trains run on the loop to check clearances etc...any excuse. The Coach brought the directors up to inspect the work.
