Also the pictures look terrible when zoomed in with a camera. Normal viewing distances and it's not too bad.

It's been a while since I was last on here, but work commitments have unfortunately have more priority. A second attempt at the lining on my jinty worked and all I have to is give it an identity. Also, there are a couple of other wagons that I'm working on in between frustration gaps.

Well I decided to go back to square one and start stripping it of paint and starting again, I'll come back to that one again. Until then, Back to the coach. I still need to get some wire for handrails and order some gas lamps on the roof. Rob.

Hi Niel, I think just asking me those questions, its kind of sunk in what I did wrong. Transfers are fox transfers. I think I applied the lining back in November but had only just got around to finishing it. The Vanish I used was Humbrols Acrylic Gloss varnish which I used first before applying the lining and another layer when I finished everything. Thanks Rob.

Silly me. It helps when I actually add the picture....

Disaster strikes! This loco has given me nothing but grief since I started repainting it. Now that I got all the transfers finished, I sprayed it with some gloss varnish and disaster, they start to wrinkle up! What went wrong?

Hello everyone and happy Christmas. This is my first post on Rmweb so please be gentle. Anyway, I thought it was about time that I put something up on here, I read many post and have found them be very inspiring, enough to make me be brave enough to try some modifications out myself. So here we go. A couple of months ago I tried to convert a Farish generic coach into and LMS push/pull coach. It went horribly horribly wrong. So for a while it kind of sat on my workbench whilst I figured out what to do with it. Then whilst I was at work, I had an idea, I will convert it into a small bogie coach. I do apologise for these pictures, I wasn't originally going to put them up on here. But I promise the next one will be much more presentable. I was going to put them on Dapol B set bogies but I've settle for the Farish ones instead. And this is it so far, I'm currently waiting for parts to come through the post before I can move forward. More to come. Rob.
