Looking great. I think the ID back scene would look better as they are photo's of real places and above the bridge might be ok with just a light blue sky. Your the boss, enjoy.

Just found this one on Geograph by Albert Bridge. I think if you spray a lot of grey paint over them you will be close enough.

Ernies Massive Irish 1930's to 2005 Photo Archive
popeye replied to Glenderg's topic in Photos & Videos of the Prototype
Nice to see good pic's of the UT wagons. -
Try one in without glue first and see what it's like, sometimes you need to make the holes a little bigger. It's a fiddly job that you can't rush.

I don't know how you can wait 4 months, I find a week bad enough.

My sister lives in Adeje but hates the heat and sun every day

What crack, I don't see a crack. Looks superb, good job.
-
There will be blue bits showing when you cut them off.

Nice Job, I know the locking bars are APITA you need to take them slow. I lost count how many times I Superglued my fingers to the door.

Not to bad from a distance or run the trains fast.

It's only in Raheny every other year. North Dublin one year and south Dublin the next year.

Did it fall from a plane? You might be able to get some new parts from IRM. And lots of weathering could hide any bad damage. good luck.

Depot #8 by Riverbank Railways (fictional 1980s / early 1990s depot)
popeye replied to Adrian's topic in Irish Model Layouts
Unbelievable and stunning. Weathering is something you get better at the more you do and learn to observe what the colours really are on the real thing and never over do it. I would use 6 or 7 different colours which helps to create the right overall look. -
Love it. Nicely set out and beautifully built.
-
I have some pic's here from my collection, you can have black, grey or yellow. And lots of dirt.

10/10 Top class

I have found acrylic on enamel to work ok, as long as it's not to heavy and wet. I have had a lot more trouble with acrylic varnish spray cans, it needs to be well shaken not stirred.
-
I see from the instructions that the Halfords primer is acrylic, I never knew that. But it seems to work ok with enamel paints.
-
I called into Halfords today to get some grey primer. For 500ml it used to be £7.49 but now it costs £11.99. So I will be getting it elsewhere from now on.
-
Nice loco, I hated the grey at first but it's ok now. Pity about the carrier film, may be redo that as well.
-
It does convey a general impression of the thing And the paint, lining, colour and lettering look good to me. Very nice.

popeye replied to Adrian's topic in Irish Model Layouts
WOW I thought I was looking at the real thing. The track weathering is the best I have ever seen. -
Top class, they look fantastic.
