NO-ONE CARES ABOUT MY MODELS!!!

UPDATE, Gordon 2 RWS illustration style, btw this has jhad alot of bashing done to it, took on MTF, anyway Gordon Reaved the blue after I fnished off making the Pony wheel, looks quite neat acculy, yey

Well Work On RWS Gordon has started and when ill be waiting for bits to dry ill finish thomas and when they are Done, RWS Henry ill be next

Chaz, you brain has been eatin away slightly by some of the  tards on this fourm, Thomas is NOT finished yet by miles, read the  mesage and how on earth can a LMS Black liveried James look emo?

Sparks and StanierJack definetly HAVE BRAINS thankyou, intelligence hit the fourm THANKYOU

soz but ''ZeldaTheSwordsman" and "FPTP-Man"(corrie) do not have brains to understand the RWS... oh well

anyways Thomas has been started again, the front was already straitend almost 1 nd a half years ago and its been continued now its still got LOADS to be done still, new bunker, Funel bufferbeam detail, valve, chassis fittings that are seem ont he front cover of a detailed painting of thomas on the cover of the 1979 annual, Percy is similar I had to totally rebuild a different hornby chassis, using parts from different chassis and i scratch built the cylynders but they are still damaged from when i removed them the 1st time they were attached. The face is still too small i fink, the saddletank is straightend and the smokebox is lowerd, Gordon to be started soonage

ya, toby with only a repaint, others need cutting and stuff

Percys got a new chassis, Needs a new face, the ERTL One is too small, proplem is its already cut off, I could try and make it bigger, I dunno, Toby needs some more wood panels and aswel, a smaller face

I havent glued anything on the smokebox, Ive got 4 different facial expressions for James, so i haveto change them round, plus i removed the eye mech for space for a smoke generator so you kno, its def not staying there

Need to find the parts to finish James, more realistic break pipe, Cut down Hornby 3F Tender, Proper  Handrails and a Valve gear. Basically the same as Daisy

They arnt anywhere near finished Im gonna cut Toby's doorways and stuff out and give him a detailed interior

its far from finished though:P I wan2 fully detail the buffer beams as they should be rather than how they are in the book but then again was she altered like that for a reason? I seriously need information like this to produce correct RWS to be happy with but its extremly frustrating.

I never think my models are perfect and i want them to be, Gavin seems to think they are correct

I found a good picture of a fully detailed 101 bufferbeam, so i could work from that, i dunno really



RWS spot on models is what i want thats why Ive desicussed it endlessly with Gavin and Sean about Thomas I & II, Percy, Toby, Duck, Diesel. loads more that i cant remember

I got my Bachmann Thomas II to complete aswell as starting off my Hornby Thomas II, poor Gavin having me drag him into another investagation by telling him the information about his running plate, so weve got another project to do lol Hornby E2 Thomas with lowerd footplate 

Thomas I must of been given bigger wheels when he came to Sodor, why else would he have splashers when he had a rasied bufferbeam too? and after the breakfast, his full footplate was lowerd but the splashers were made bigger, still reaching the same book hight, the top of his smokebox supports.
That is somthing correct that has been included in The Bachmann Thomas and can be seen in this photo of my RWS Bachmann Thomas II but you can see the wheels are too small for the splasher and need to be spread apart more (longer chassis)




I have to scratchbuild the cab on my Duck, I m using an ancient Mainline Model, so i had to pain the GWR, bad work on it though ill just get a print of it and get the etched numberplates and do what rightfully shoud be on his bufferbeams, His GWR Number

Yea most of my work is on MTF as i am a moderator

Rite heres the process of the face to make it removable:      all oi need to do is another coat pf green and her number D1

exctly, making mine a more correct model, And because I am acculy using Daisy's proper class, class 101, she should turn out perfect with the paintjob, detailing and face are done.

So All I have to do is cut the windows and doors out of toby and repaint him completely and make his face abit smaller and RWS Toby done and then Thats all the Ffarquhar Branch Locos done for My Ffarquhar layout

Thomas (both RWS versions)
Percy
Toby
Daisy
Mavis



the middle lining is done, now another coat of green and red and then her number D1 and its gonna get another coat of green and the face is gonna be an thin ERTL face with bluetak to spread the area out and it gettin painted green like in the books to match the colour of the body, bye bye mascara and eyeshadow

are you on about the diameter?

heres the finished paintwork, on my side ive still got alot of work to do to it such a a RWS Face and brakepiples, extra detail and other crap:  what do you think?
