Kirley Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Georgeconna is building a SSM Bandon Tank and has been posting it on the RM Web site. See his excellent work here: http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/66331-studio-scale-models-bandon-tank-4-6-0/ Quote
RedRich Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 I've been following the build myself and it is amazing seeing the loco come together. It's a great testament to Georges skills and Des has produced another fabulous kit, huge respect to both of the lads. I can't wait to see the finished item. Rich, Quote
RedRich Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Des any kit built model (especially a steam locomotive) needs to be designed with the build process of the model in mind. It's hard sometimes to picture a finished model when looking at flat etches before you ever start bending or rolling. The break van is another great example. I've said it before and I'll say it again Des, you have took the hobby forward in so many ways since you took ownership of SSM. They are great kit's according to the lads and are a pleasure to build.

enniscorthyman Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 That is just brilliant,and I look forward to viewing the finished loco. Quote
Riversuir226 Posted January 16, 2013 Posted January 16, 2013 Well done George and Des, if Georges other models are anything to go by it ll be top drawer. I wish I had the liathroid's to attempt the kit as I would really love a excbsc tank in the fleet. Quote

Weshty Posted January 17, 2013 Posted January 17, 2013 Riversuir, to use my quote... just go for it. You'd surprise yourself. Quote
