Do you still make decals? for rear end hazard or slow moving vehicles. Yes Richard as Grahame said it would help if they were in white primer . They are still excellent and I like the various box van finishes. Regards to all .Ray. Hi Ray, I should be getting stock of the the pack for the Scania from Osborns in the next few weeks. I'm happy with the test sets (after about 4 revisions!). Please excuse the scruffy painting. I've got some bits being test printed at the same time, I'm planning a pack with Long Vehicle boards, light clusters and reflector triangles, to help people either painting kits or repainting Oxford Diecast and the like. I don't know how much demand there is for this, but it'll be interesting to see. This is just one of each style to print as a test.

Trewisin Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Hi Jo, dont worry about the painting ,the decals are what counts . There are quite a few decals required for vehicles in N-Scale there seems to be a shortage. Im suprised that the bus brigade have not produced a ready made selection. Andy , your Sweeney mobile looks good .You will have to look for some good life like figures in 3D print of Jack and George to pose next to the Grenada. Richard dont suprise us with another variation of the Transit van, yes the Dress delivery van looks good i can remember seeing them in London a few years ago,mainly black in colour if my mind serves me right.

Here is a photo of the van body of a Leyland Terrier. The derailed GUV has just missed it after being hit in the rear by a pway train at East Croydon. https://zenfolio.page.link/8feLN The rest of the crash photos are here… https://zenfolio.page.link/fRVoy Edited July 27, 2021 by acg5324 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trewisin Posted July 27, 2021 Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) Hi Andy, dont remember that prang at Croydon in the 80's . I live within spitting distance from the London- Brighton line near to 3 Bridges. I must have been away o leave when that happened as im sure i would have remembered it as it would have dissrupted all flights into or out of Gatwick with divertions. Regardsa Ray.

It probably would have only blocked the adjacent line through platform 2…….and maybe not even that if the train wasn’t fouling the line. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Royal42 Posted July 28, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) Hello all, I am still learning, practicing and attempting to improve my CAD and printing skills. My aim is to find out how fine I can get the detail on my models and these test prints are my latest attempt. I haven't cleaned them up yet, the support stubs are still prominent and some supports will need repositioning; however, I am rather pleased with the detail on the Coles Crane gantry. I need to do some further fine tuning but I'm pleased that I am finding my way around the CAD features and being able to print something that will go on my diorama. cheers, Mike Edited July 28, 2021 by Royal42 9 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DGO Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 Technically this isn't road legal but I wanted something a bit different for a building site so modelled this over the weekend A Wacker Neuson DT25 like the prototype the seat and bucket can both be rotated and the bucket and ram can be posed in up, down or anywhere in between positions I plan when I have another weekend free to create a spider excavator so I can pose it on a slope depositing it's load into the bucket of the DT25 of course that's only the plan right now and it might change David 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeysarefun Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I've finished the stl for the 1974/75 Ford GT hardtop. This is a bit of an icon here, the Mad Max Interceptor was one of these, and Eric Bana documented his love affair with his in the documentary movie "Love The Beast" T"Was a bit hard to find blueprints which weren't the Mad Max Interceptor version, and to find details of the original wheels but finally managed to find them on a UK website put together by UK owners of Australian Fords of all places. Currently prices have gone nuts for the original ones here, fueled by boomers buying the cars they wanted when they were 18 but their parents wouldn't let them. If you want a real one, theres currently a nice green one on carsales.com.au for 133000 of your money. https://www.carsales.com.au/cars/details/1975-ford-falcon-gt-xb-auto/SSE-AD-7031763/?Cr=0 Designed in Sketchup which is not the best software for curvy car shapes, for the next one I'll be updating my Blender skills. 4 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

grahame Posted August 8, 2021 Author Share Posted August 8, 2021 I've had to retake a pic of a N/2mm truck for an 'N Gauge Now' magazine article, so I thought I'd post a copy of it here. The cab is 3D printed while the body and chassis is highly bashed from a modern Tomytec tanker to try and back date it to a typical 1970s version: 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerry Here's the horses sculpted, Shire horse stood and walking both stallion and mare, Cart horse stood and walking both Stallion and mare. Only the Stallion shire horse was done with a nose bag as it did not show up well when printed at this scale. I'll try to remember to print one at some point. 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
