Next fantastic fantasy MILW, or New Maude.

Presenting the next idea in a fantasy Milwaukee Road. Still here. Plugging along and competing with the big boys. Pressing the envelope here a little more so than usual. Call this new, with trace elements of historic. The colors and how they are applied are familiar to anyone with a full knowledge of MILW. How it is applied is what is new. As it should be. 3 decades past the finish line for real. A RR which had problems sticking with a theme. Would not be wearing the same paint it did in 1986, or ever. For that matter. This started with my love of the zig zag shape. Found on some schemes MILW used. Then the complexity of the color palette is closely linked to Old maude. The DL109 as delivered. Call this New Maude. No cheating here. Other than heralds, numbers and warning stickers. It is all paint. More so than other abstract schemes I have used masking and nothing but paint to accomplish. The parallel lines, equally spaced. At size of N Scale. Is a challenge to be sure. Hope I pulled it off. It is fantasy. So there is no right or wrong. Only cool or not. As always. Fire away. Comments welcome
