RMweb Gold roundhouse Posted November 3, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 3, 2015 How about N scale. I could then fit a Big Jim in all my N scale class 66's, Chiltern 67s etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

F-UnitMad Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I’m going to get a “Little” Jim ..... "He's fallen in the water..!!!" Sorry slightly obscure (these days) Goon Show joke there... but somebody had to. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium newbryford Posted November 3, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 3, 2015 (edited) Apologies for lowering the bar, but does anybody think that the middle one looks like Jim is trying to "push one out......"? And the left one is breaking wind? The right picture is after doing left and middle...........................

RMweb Premium t-b-g Posted November 3, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 3, 2015 Once Alan has worked his magic on the scans, he can print them up in any modelling scale you like. I exist in 2mm, 4mm and 7mm scales and I am sure there could be various sized "Big Jim" prints too. Presumably he will call them small "Big Jim", medium "Big Jim" and big "Big Jim" to avoid confusion. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Popular Post big jim Posted November 6, 2015 Author RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted November 6, 2015 the prints arrived yesterday from alan and i managed to paint them up today between shunts! i have used humbrol acrylic paint and a single fine brush, it went on well and i'm very pleased with my first attempt at painting figures here are the prints as delivered gave them a coat of primer then added the flesh colour hair and boots orange pants blue top, i think i picked up gloss by mistake but i'll put some matt varnish over it anyway, ive also done one of me with blue pants on fine detail, reflective stripes, colas blob on the shirt, watch strap and face etc really pleased with how they look, next step is put them into locos 23 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
