Well folks, I got this little gem for my Birthday (Week early) and all I can say is it is a real beauty. Just to give you an idea how big it is in HO, I held it for the photo. Took a while to clean off the flash (White metal kit) and assemble it but well worth the effort. I sprayed it all black first then dry brushed it with various colours. Painted the drive wheels red and as per instructions, made the little tiny bands out of paper. Wow, this was tiny to work with, I have not got the smallest of fingers. All in all, to me, this is a real winner for Woodland Scenics. Paul [ 08. March 2003, 18:04: Message edited by: Paul Templar ]
Paul, This something! VERY tiny! WOW! Nice work tho... The belts make the scene, without them, It wouldn't be so real looking! Your some craftsman! Amazing...
I have always liked the Woodland Scenics mini scenes. They came out after I had switched from HO to N, and as the decades slipped by I always hoped they would come out in N. They used to even advertise the HO mini scenes in the N and Z Walthers catalog. Maybe someone has to retire and new blood come into power, or whatever happened at Athearn to get N scale scenes out of these guys.
