Georgeconna Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 yeah, love the shiny Steel and the Faded look.Class stuff! Quote
Glenderg Posted February 25, 2014 Author Posted February 25, 2014 [ATTACH=CONFIG]12147[/ATTACH] murrayec Jaysus, that's a cracker Eoin. It's now developed into a serious Elf 'n Safety Crisis, with extraction vehicles, plant, the Guards, you name it. Will have a photo later for the craic. yeah, love the shiny Steel and the Faded look.Class stuff! Cheers George. I couldn't think of a way to make the cylinders in the tubes be like the real thing, the paint would only chip off as you moved it, so I use various thicknesses of solder to get the look. Operate slowly! Quote
scahalane Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 She looks stunning, love the colouring. Quote
Glenderg Posted February 27, 2014 Author Posted February 27, 2014 Following the serious per way incident the other day, I needed authorities on scene.... And on their way came to a chalk outline, without a body.... Quote
Garfield Posted February 27, 2014 Posted February 27, 2014 Nice one, Richie! I'm pretty sure yer man Fiachra is from Longford... Quote
Mayner Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Id say the sergeant is a Roscommon man held back from promotion for 30 years after summoning the Commissioner & Minister of Justiceor after hours drinking. By right should also have an Inspector from the HSA & someone from the RSC and a gaggle of Senior Civil Servants arguing over Jurisdiction. Always happens in cases like this Quote
BosKonay Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 :ROFL: Brilliant The poor chalk outline looks like he's been at the pies! Quote
Weshty Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Now THAT is a product line you should have for sale Richie, great job done, and no mad staring white eyes. The detail on the hi-0vis jackets is class. Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 :ROFL: Brilliant The poor chalk outline looks like he's been at the pies! Thought he looked a bit like The Hunchback of Notre Dame! Probably fell off the crane? Quote
Broithe Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Would they not be needing a dog unit in support? Quote
Broithe Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Turn that Sergeant round and let's see if there's a pony-tail....... Quote
jhb171achill Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 So Cor Trachta means "dog warden"? Quote
WRENNEIRE Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Turn that Sergeant round and let's see if there's a pony-tail....... Sadly gone to http://www.rapunzelfoundation.com/rapunzel-support.html They also supply hair replacement for Cancer patients Quote
jhb171achill Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Details like this can add great interest to a layout. I saw one at an exhibition somewhere once where there was a busy goods yard being shunted in slow motion - very good; but outside the goods yard gate was a police car with blue light actually flashing, and the policemen had a man pinned up against the wall, and another policeman was pointing to a car beside them which was parked across the gate on a double yellow, under a large "no parking" sign. So you can even have heavy-handed policing in 00 scale! Quote

Glenderg Posted February 28, 2014 Author Posted February 28, 2014 Try as i might earlier to, shape a piece of an ear bud into a reprasentation of the garda poodle, when i tried to put 2 black dots for eyes it all ran. Looks like a melted snowman with black eyes now. I've already settled on a few characters for next week - - Mr. Brown , from the Department of Stop and Go. Ex- KGB man, 40 a day, cromby coat. - Tuail O'Toole and Feisty O'Curamach from the HSA. - Mr and Mr Anderson from the RSC. and a few token junkies havin a row on the sidelines.I hope to use all of these for my little north wall quay layout/diorama "Arthur's Quay" later this year. Cheers for the laughs lads! R. - Quote
Weshty Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 shape ...an ear bud into a representation of the garda poodle- take the earbud, die the top and back black, paint on a perma-smirk and voila, Alan Shatter, the perfect Garda poodle. Quote

jhb171achill Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 Brilliant, Glenderg! Hoodies in 00 scale.... ! . Quote
Broithe Posted February 28, 2014 Posted February 28, 2014 I don't think the dog is a poodle, I'm fairly sure that he's a Bichon Frise. Accuracy matters - sometimes..... Quote
Broithe Posted March 1, 2014 Posted March 1, 2014 If there's heavy traffic, they sometimes use a motorcycle for quicker access - hopefully not forgetting to put a helmet on... Quote
Glenderg Posted March 6, 2014 Author Posted March 6, 2014 Did these lads while waiting for the dinner to cook earlier, so forgive the slapdash paint job, but the too foot rule should apply to these "yokes" later on. From left to right : "shotto" - handy shooting stuff. Mostly in the arm. Hoodie permanently attached. "Blotto" - clogs up a&e, bizarre fashion, crutch permanently attached. "Baby Lotto" - has an A in Reproduction. Permanently pregnant. "Sneachta" - with ponytail..... Quote
Weshty Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 To misquote dear old Flann O'B, you sir are a prince amongst men. Genius work. Quote

WRENNEIRE Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Such authenticity! ...and in grey... Lately passed on to The Repunzal Foundation, I feel sorry for the poor child that has to wear a grey wig! Quote
