Here is my latest offering. I was intrigued by this with the patched out numbers. It appears as 1306 and 1326. Paint shop mixup? Anyhoo, this is a Red Caboose flat car with the SLSF doghouse from Moloco. The Moloco kit proved to be quite a challenge for some reason. The kit is very precise but very thin pieces and brittle. I'll post a couple of the proto first: Here as 1306: Here is my attempt: Hope you like it. Any idea on renumber I would love to hear. Thanks,Steve
Great work, Steve. I'm especially impressed with the effect on the roof - any particular technique/steps? The scenery/track/ballast on the diorama's pretty good, too.
Thanks guys! For the weathering I use cheap wal mart acrylics and oils over that. Also Dick Blick gauche. On all the edges I rub graphite. The track is the same I used in my GP35 thread. I need to get a diorama together for pictures.
Ha John, I am so far behind on projects I have come to grips with never building a layout. I would need to stop buying now and live til I was 205! Lol
