Pete Harvey Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 Thanks for your comments Dave. Matt All I did with the roof was to try to replicate where the Diesel soot would go then after cleaning the airbrush, I used a wide brush wetted in thinners and dragged it down the side and along the top of the model until I was happy with it and left it to dry.

Pete Harvey Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 Here are a couple of pictures of two class 20/3's that I have converted and painted for Andi Walshaw. Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poindexter Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Hi Pete Excellent work on the 20/3s. A silly question considering all the conversion work and detailing that has taken place, but how do you apply your orange stripes? they are very straight and crisp Cheers Guy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cairnsroadworks Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Hi Pete, They look great! can't wait to see them In the flesh in a bit! Cheers, Andi. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Harvey Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Guy I use a Peter Spoerer Easi-Lining pen to be honest probably the best £33.00 I have ever spent and a Flexi Stainless Steel Rule from Expo Drill and tool See attached .pdf.

MRDBLUE17 Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Hi Pete, Those 20/3's look great that you've done for Andi - are they using your new bodies or are they full conversions? Very nice finish on them as well. Hopefully will see them make an appearance at Victory Road Andi at some point in the future? Nice to see your various projects develop. Your DRS 37 photos were very useful for filing the noses to shape for a certain DRS 37 that will be appearing at Rannoch in the future too. Thanks, Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Harvey Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Mark They are full conversions the bodies had not been cast when I did Andy's 20's. Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Harvey Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 While at the Members day a couple of weeks ago I managed to pick up four Dapol JNA's. I have now weathered the four and added loads and a flashing tail lamp which involved adding pick-ups to a bogie and a function only decoder.

Will Vale Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 Those look terrific, especially the warm rusty yellow shade. I really must pull my finger out and do mine... Is the grime airbrushed with the scrapes and streaks brushed after, or is that more (fine!) airbrush work? Will Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Harvey Posted July 12, 2011 Author Share Posted July 12, 2011 Will I used this Technique Rust Streaks its quite easy to do and as you can see it's very effective. You need to use the AK products as just thinned paint will not work I have tried. Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Harvey Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 Just something a bit different I still have some work to do on those ready for the next show. Pete Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Pete, I'm not sure how easy the AK stuff is to come by here, although MIG products are well stocked in my local model shop - I really like their washes. My usual technique for rust streaks thus far has been GW chestnut ink, but it doesn't give you much working time. I'll keep my eyes open.
