    Since I can't find a thread already running...I'll start off:

    This is a picture of a Northern Pacific F7 AB Pair in N-Scale, that I repainted in the Raymond Lowey green mainstreeter scheme. I also detailed it, and converted it to DCC.

    It is 118K so may take a few seconds to load.

    WOW! THAT'S N-SCALE? Whoever said you can't put detail in to N? I think that shows how far we've come in this scale.

    Thanks for your fine entry! I'm very impressed with the detail you have demonstrated on your N scale. Nice photography too. Are you using a pin-hole lens?

    Thanks for the encouraging words all! I took the picture on an Olympus D450Z Digital camera. That camera is what got me back in the hobby.
    After 3 years playing with computers I was chasing the cat with the camera, then she jumped up on my dusty old layout I started but never finished. Well a few photo's later I decided to use my free webspace to make a site, and here I am. [​IMG]

    Stick with it man! The only way you could have done a better job on that would be if it were FRISCO! [​IMG]

    Aaaaaaaa, maybe... [​IMG] I've got a set of N Bachmann Plus ABBA F7's I painted and detailed in BN. I'm thinking of entering them, but I don't have any good photo's and they're not as purrrrty as those NP's. [​IMG] I'm wanting to sell them anyway. They run alright, flywheel drives, but they're not modern enough for my Railroad. [​IMG]

    Our contest ends April 30. We will announce our "winner" within a few days following. A reminder that the contest is not as much about winning or losing as it is just to see these wonderful works that all of you have created. Our Moderators will be the judges and will attempt to judge based on the photos but not on the actual quality or size of the individual photo.

    Charlie
