Georgeconna Posted April 5, 2013 Share Posted April 5, 2013 The 071's are just released a few weeks or some from Murphy Models and what a great model they are, I was asked by a friend to weather these two up this week. I Used Phoenix Precision paints along with Humbrol, Pastels and Tenscrom. Hope you like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Accurascale Fran Posted April 11, 2013 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 11, 2013 Nice one George, you'll be painting one grey next! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgeconna Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Not for me, The Grey one is bloody awful, just a plain jane really. I have not taken off my Orange tinted glass just yet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium PaternosterRow Posted April 13, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 13, 2013 Superb work, George! Really well observed - do you copy from actually photos. Totally realistic - only the coupling gives it away. Mike Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrennEire Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Not for me, The Grey one is bloody awful, just a plain jane really. I have not taken off my Orange tinted glass just yet Lovely work as always George However I have to say that the more I see the new freight livery the more it grows on me, something similar to when the original freight livery came out Just sayin......

Weshty Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 George, Quality job done all 'round, your weathering really brings out the fine detail on Mr. Murphy's finest. Weshty Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugsley Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Nice weathering, that's just how I remember them from a trip to Ireland a few years ago. I'm intrigued, does anyone have a link to a photo of the grey one, please? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugsley Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 That's great, thanks to you both. It looks a bit odd, and I definitely prefer them orange! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgeconna Posted April 16, 2013 Author Share Posted April 16, 2013 Yes Mike, Usually Trawl a few photos to get the feel of the dirt and I go from there..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrennEire Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Picked this up somewhere Shows the color charts etc Might be of interest Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgeconna Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 Handy Dave, I should have plenty of Grey paint from the Jets I normally make. A dark grey cheatline would of broken it up a bit I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CPRAIL3000 Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I see this drawing has the IE plug symbol which is now obsolete, the whole thing is a bit BR Departmental grey, hopefully they will eventually give it the "Dutch" touch!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawfin Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 Great stuff! If I modelled Irish, I'd definitely go for something with day-glow panels. The new 071 livery is a bit disappointing though... Looks pretty similar to Murphy's pre-production samples! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
