Dirty modern stuff! Entry posted by Captain Kernow September 15, 2010 917 views Share More sharing options... Followers 0 I've been detailing and weathering a couple of Re6/6's locos, together with a couple of his 'Sharks' for Matford. Not quite my usual period, but it's been fun, and I also get to play with them at Scaleforum! 1
Jon020 1,495 Posted September 15, 2010 Very nicely weathered. Looking forward to seeing them in the flesh plastic at Scaleforum. That's nice ballasting and signal/control rods too. Link to comment
Pugsley 1,453 Posted September 16, 2010 Very nice B) B) The 08 and Shark are particularly good. Sadly, I can't make it to Scaleforum to see them in the flesh. Link to comment

P.C.M 16,920 Posted September 16, 2010 Oh yeah nice weathering:D third pic down looks superb. Could this be the start of something, you did say it was fun. Cheers Peter. Link to comment
Guest Phil Posted September 18, 2010 Excellent work there by CK. Modern stuff (post privatisation) doesn't float my boat but those models look so realistic. I notice that most of the side lamp brackets on the sharks have disappeared. Presumably following prototype practice ? The only finishing touch I'd add is the vertical handrails on the shunter's step need to be a little whiter - HASAW !!!!! See this pic of a couple of stored examples in Bescot yard ; http://david6769.fotopic.net/p57006412.html Great stuff CK and R/e 6/6 Link to comment

The only finishing touch I'd add is the vertical handrails on the shunter's step need to be a little whiter - HASAW !!!!! Thanks for the kind comments, Phil and the tip re the white handrails, which I can rectify tonight. The missing lampirons may be missing because,..er...they're missing on the models! I've given the plough vans back to Re6/6 now, so perhaps we can reinstate them in due course! Link to comment
