    Loving very impressive indeed. All you need now is the ACE running through the station.

    I can think of nothing better, than finishing Ballasting and all your track works and everything runs smoothly.

  4. WindyHale76

    Templefield, ballasting is 90% complete, and the N gauge Kestrel Church is looking like a church it has been a good weekend.

    I have discovered I really like making Airfix tank kits, they may be designed in the sixties but with modern painting techniques and a steady hand they come out nicely. All I need to do is make some dragons teeth and I'll be set.

    1. WindyHale76

      WindyHale76

      I have seen them and I have a plan of action, using a SAM publication about Airfix military models. I've got a cromwell to build and an AEC Matador. I hope Airfix will one day make an M7 priest or a Sherman firefly

      My Dad let me make the Sherman kits but insisted on making the Churchill, his favourite tank.

  16. WindyHale76

    Just bought the new range of Games Workshop paints, going to test them on my latest 2mm project. Games Workshop have overhauled their complete paint range so If anyone wants I will endure to produce a conversion guide.

      Apart from blue and yellow mixing to make green, (70s and 80s to make 60s!), i'm completely dangerous with paint! So I, for one, would appreciate an idiots guide, (me), to them. Ta.

      I think there is a conversion guide between old/new lurking around somewhere on the GW website.
