Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Posted April 18, 2012 Both locos were weathered what I did notice when taking photos of the real thing and what a lot of painters seem to leave out when weathering is the old orange paint starts to come through the new black paint from wear and tear so I recreated this effect in the weathering process Quote

Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Posted April 18, 2012 I was looking at photos of B113 in Cultra and got to thinking that a lot of you guys never seen the fantastic models that Hiddenagenda produced of this loco last year. Hiddenagenda did a production of 12. 10 of these were sold to the public via Dave Bracken, 1 was for Hiddenagenda and 1 was for myself. They were built from brass and plasticard and powered by a Bachmann class 20 chassis with the proper bogies fitted. The painting of all 12 was done by myself and they were available in 3 different liveries with the exception of 1 green livery with a white strip for Dave's own collection. I have to say that I have had many hours of enjoyment with this loco and it has to be the best scratch built loco I have seen by a member of this site It makes the Shapeways model look like a car crash. If it only was a beer it would be called Carlsberg This is my own one B114 and yes before you guys say it she was the only one out of the 12 to be weathered. Enjoy the photos A couple of videos of the BoBo Sulzer on my layout Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Posted April 18, 2012 Some of the model in production Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Posted April 18, 2012 I made a few simple modification to the circuit board on my 201 to enable the cab lights to work. I am using a TCS 6 function 21 pin decoder but this modification will work with any 21 pin 6 function decoder. You will need 2 resistors, a soldering iron, solder and a pair of tweezers In this picture we have the circuit board before I start work First start by removing the diodes and resistors with your soldering iron. The ones you are looking to remove are marked R1,R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, Q1, Q2 Then take your 2 resistors and solder them where I have in the picture below. Now you will have F0 side lights. F1 full beam #1 end. F2 full beam #2end. F3 cab light #1 end, F4 cab light #2 end Some decoder manufactures tell you to remove the suppressors fitted to whatever loco you have. On the MM 201 these are the green bulb (black,red,silver stripe on them) shaped devices either side of the decoder. Remove these with your soldering iron and with your tweezers pull the red and black wires across and resolder job done I hope some of you guys find this helpful its not hard to do even if you don't have any soldering experience and it enables you to buy any 6 function 21 pin decoder Quote
BosKonay Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 A one man production line Anthony! The job on 012 above looks amazing!!!! Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 18, 2012 Author Posted April 18, 2012 A one man production line Anthony! The job on 012 above looks amazing!!!! The customer supplied me with the photo above as they wanted 012 to run with tara mines wagons I did for them before. 012 was the last A Class to work the Tara's and they took the picture on that day. It took me a long time weathering this one as I wanted it to look just like the photo supplied. BTW the customer loved it. Quote
enniscorthyman Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Yes 012 looks great,plenty of dirt and filth:) Quote
RedRich Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Anto I love the Bachmann MK11's in the NIR livery. They look as good as rtr models with a factory finish. Rich, Quote
Garfield Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 Nice work, Anto! Quick question... did you use the hairspray method to get the chipped look on the cement bubbles? Quote
