Baggies1961 Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 Hi Paul, Ask the passengers on the platform, from earlier posts they have spent ages waiting for the class 122 to arrive. Thats a definite yes by the way. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggies1961 Posted February 6, 2021 Author Share Posted February 6, 2021 Hi All, Can anyone recommend a good quality Air brush, being a newbey to air brushing please excuse my naivety, do they come with a compressor? If not, can a suitable one again be recommended. Big birthday coming up so might just treat myself. Are the Iowata the best? Thanks in advance. Regards Julian. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deano747 Posted February 7, 2021 Share Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) Have a look here, might be useful advice. I'm no expert but, I bought a cheap chinese one for learning with and also have in my stock an Iwata Neo TRN2 and a Badger 200 Both excellent brushes but if you want to spray large areas the Sparmax 850 seems a popular choice due to the larger capacity cup (125ml) Compressors are again dependant on you usage. I have a mini one for airbrushing, a 6L for general use, tyres, spray cleaning, air gun cleaning, etc. and a 50L for my grit blaster (far too big for general use!) A must have is a moisture trap/filter and for obvious reasons oil free operation. There are far more experts in this field out there, this is just my setup! Good luck Regards, Deano Edited February 7, 2021 by Deano747 Incorrect size; 50L, not 25L 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggies1961 Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 Iv been meaning to get little details like relay cabinets for a while so good old ‘flea bay’ duly provided. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggies1961 Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 After watching Ian’s masterclass on his class 50 I thought I better start mine. I have painted out the incorrectly positioned white line and when I can locate them will use a railtec white line transfer Steve made for me to replace the line towards the windscreen. As Ian said the weathering will hide the paint job, hopefully. Also dotted a few patches of grey on the group. I will use his technique to dab some white paint on, but generally speaking Ark Royal ‘s paintwork was not that bad. I will leave the NSE flashes on although 50035 never carried them. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggies1961 Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 Thanks Ian. Yes I noted from your video how easy they did. What Id give for a small workbench! Now wheres my methylated spirit. Today I succumbed to another Rails special offer . Got fed up waiting for the Class 122. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggies1961 Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 Bit annoyed with Rails, spending that much regardless of offer I would have thought like Hattons, Tower and kernow Id be offered free postage.... apparently not! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggies1961 Posted February 9, 2021 Author Share Posted February 9, 2021 Hi Paul, Yes there is but it doesn't work so email is the only method. Success, I have heard from Steve and like I thought snowed under with business & admin. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
