So this is the current state. The grills need to have the second coat of white on them and then glazing needs to be done. I am toying with either the plastic cut out idea (not sure how this will work as I don't have a template anymore!!!) or using crystal clear (which may not be how you spell it but it will do!). Bogies and transfers to do.
Any one know of a good picture to show the lettering on one of these? Email me or, better yet, leave a comment. If leaving a comment, please leave your location (city/country - no need for street/postcode) as I discovered I am linked to the 2mm website tonight (which I didn't know but it is nice so thanks whoever did that!) and I would like to know who is reading/watching - thanks!
PS - I made a start in front of the footy last night on some GER coaches from David E of the Darkest Essex Group - two more attacked today, again in front of the footy. Bombers won tonight which meant the brake third wasn't finished!
Hi from the South East UK
ReplyDeleteyour doing better than I
Kevin the bogie van looks very nice, you seem to be a quick worker. You will find David's etches good to build, if you don't know that already. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the comments gents.
ReplyDeleteI don’t think I am that fast – more the stars aligned and I got lucky with some time. I got a week off from work after Easter and the eldest two daughters are well trained so I was able to work while Darling Daughter 3 (who is 13 months) was asleep as well as evenings. Mind you, had my footy team not been playing their arch rivals (think Everton and Liverpool; Celtic and Rangers) I would probably have gotten more done Saturday evening as well.
