P.C.M Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hi Neil, Just been catching up on your thread, I like the overall shot of the layout, and 693 looks pretty good I left mine ex works as it would have been in my time period though I have been tempted to dirty it up. Cheers Peter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBE Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Indeed mate. The 37 looks absolutely cracking. Fantastic work well done, it better be visiting Outon in July!!. Cav Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mason Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hi Peter thanks for the comment I think 693 definatly needs a little dirt on it, the pics I have found of it were not that grubby so just a light weather would be great. Cheers Cav I thought u would like it especially the method I've used, I actually wanted to get it ready for July just front ends to do think I might go back over 709 to and take more dirt off. On the bad side I can't seem to diagnose 47145s issues yet not looking good at the moment. Cheers n thanks for the comments Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mason Posted March 12, 2012 Author Share Posted March 12, 2012 after what i felt was a better finish on 37693 i thought i would attack the others too, 709 and 800. using the same technique but i gave 800 a rub with the fibre pen to fade the yellow on the sector markings and make the grey strip look a little worn, just needs some arrows and name plate now what do you think??

As for the carrs powders I picked mine up from stall at the Mansfield show but I am sure c&l stock them. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 Cracking 37 pic's, I will need to run mine down to Deeping for a dirty up. By the way I found Deeping Clay whilst trawling through the old pages and brought it back to the top last night, did you sell it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mason Posted March 13, 2012 Author Share Posted March 13, 2012 Your welcome to deeping anytime mate I'm more than happy to dirty some bits. That's going back some, deeping clay was before Charlie st which must be 2 years old now if it's still alive. Deeping clay got broken up if I remember rightly, it had to go due space and it was sat in the garage for months, the plan n concept was pretty good n the buildings I made looked cool, I just couldn't get motivated on it.

Jack00 Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 That's a shame Deeping clay looked great, I stumbled across that too! Well noticed Andrew...! It reminds me of treggymans layout penhallick junction. Jack. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
