Jaz Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Got two very nice "Colas re-spray" locos bodies off "Chris" (hammer73).. His re-spraying jobs are "TOP" work of art. Highly recommend,with very fair rates..... Colas 56302... Colas 37219... the overall layout is really come long strongly, have you considered just adding some mucky water to the brown plasticy wall ....as it now attracts the wrong type of attention, as it is one of the few thing that you have not improved. I think even a hint of grimy water on it will improve its photographic capabilities. Love the model, your greenery i really adding life to the whole area.

Guest bri.s Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Hi Neil and no worries I'm quite far with planning the new layout thanks I'm slowly collecting things for it ,so once I start it I can have as much materials and things to hand as possible instead of having to wait to get them and lose motivation one thing I didn't do right with the last one was plan it enough so I'm planning everything lol lol it'll be smaller but a lot better (hopefully ) lol Brian Edited December 30, 2014 by bri.s Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
