tonybonneyba Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 Absolute Wonderfull! Would you do a N gauge class 170 in c4k livery?? (Once I buy it... ) I'm still shocked that no one else has done it apart from you! You did sush a great job.... Tony. Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 17, 2014 Author Posted April 17, 2014 Tony drop me a PM and we can discuss your needs. Quote
heirflick Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 lovely work on 230 Anthony....suprised you have her that clean:rolleyes:. dont think i would like to see that livery on her in real life though - dosent do her justice. bring back the orange!! Quote
Blaine Posted April 19, 2014 Posted April 19, 2014 Slight overkill on the amount of lacquer on 230, but gets credibility otherwise Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 19, 2014 Author Posted April 19, 2014 Slight overkill on the amount of lacquer on 230, but gets credibility otherwise There isn't any lacquer on that Ed. It's the same 2 pack paint that the real ones are painted in, which is a gloss finish. the colour looks the same when scaled down but the trade off is you get a higher gloss finish. With the 071's I would have toned that down but I wanted the 201 to have that just out of the paint shop look so I didn't tone her down and just weathered the exhaust. Glad you like her:) Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 20, 2014 Author Posted April 20, 2014 Now that we are on our Easter break a bit of down time to do a little work for myself and take a few days of from Weathering Gurus. First up is a Hornby steam crane repainted and weathered to look like one of the CIE cranes. Sorry I can't post up the photos of the real thing that I worked from as the photos ain't mine to share. Enjoy Quote

Dave Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 Jeez Anthony, that's sublime. Truly stunning, I want one! Quote
aclass007 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 "Sorry I can't post up the photos of the real thing that I worked from as the photos ain't mine to share." I actually thought it was the real thing! Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Posted April 23, 2014 Thanks for the comments guys Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted April 27, 2014 Author Posted April 27, 2014 Saturday morning at 10am I started out with just bare boards. The track had been layed a few months ago so it was time to get some scenery done. Some nice green fields a bridge, hedges etc etc. Here are a few photos of what I've done today. A few more hedges and tarmac have yet to be added so I will post up some more pics when I get that finished. For any of you guys who have been to see my layout this section I am working on is the upper deck against the back wall. I picked these two up in Warley so Ballykay had to get its own lovers lane. Who said Volvo drivers are boring Quote

enniscorthyman Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Very nice,super realistic job even down to the lovers lane. Quote

Kirley Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Excellent work Anthony, realistic grass and "Irish" gates. That embankment and bridge would look just right for an "Egyptian Arch". I see you have included some "wild life" as well. Quote
Dave Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Excellent work Anthony, where did you get the gate? Quote
scahalane Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Very nice landscape, the colouring blends seamlessly with the background. As for the lane shot, lovely car!!! Quote
josefstadt Posted April 27, 2014 Posted April 27, 2014 Stunning work Anthony. Just shouts South Armagh near Kilnasaggart. Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted May 6, 2014 Author Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) Some photos of NIR 111 class (111, 112, 113) knocking around Ballykay this weekend. All 3 locos are in various states of weathering, with 113 being the youngest of the class both north and south of the border she is slightly cleaner that the others. Red warning panels were repainted day glo orange and faded on 111/112. Enjoy Edited May 6, 2014 by Flying Scotsman 4472 Quote
