If you cast your mind back about a month (before I finished the Clayton and started back on Canopus) I was looking at tiny chassis for a project, specifically the power bogies from a KATO Centram. Having settled on a chassis I've been slowly designing the rest of the model.
So far I've finished the footplate downwards; the body will be an all etched affair that slots onto this base. The test print fitted fairly well (a couple of support pins need resizing slightly for a better fit) so I better get on with designing the rest of it.
As to what it's a model of...... I'll let you guess a while longer yet.
So, I need to stock up on orange paint and build some peat wagons...
ReplyDeleteNo it's going to have two men pumping handles up and down with a model of Mark with a whip on a car behind.
DeleteYes, I've not figured out quite which shade of orange we're going to need yet
DeleteI was told many years ago that 'Howard Rotavator Orange' is the correct shade (it does exist!). Might be worth contacting Alan Keef though.
DeleteBS592 apparently.
