It's going nicely, and never boring, T. Especially when you're doing all the working and I'm doing all the watching!

Thanks Again Boss!! You have time to start something else...right? LOL!!! Should send Iain the link...he has been MIA!!
Sollie, Hi ya bud! Can I assume you are asking what I used for paint on "Page 4"? If that is the case, I used Some Tamiya mixtures for the pre-rusty type stuff. Flat Brown mixed with Hull Red, Orange, Deck Tan Black...pretty much what I am seeing at that time. I usually will have 2 to 4 different mixes, ranging from dark rusting to brighter orange types. Please let me know if this helped or not. I can try an break down what I did if you need me too.

Hey Todd- really fine piece of work! I talked to Iain a couple of weeks ago and he described himself as "Buried!" I know he is doing a Demo for the AMPS Albany crew on February 18th and wrangling a pile of orders and commissions etc. Steve

Todd- it was a good time- but about 15 minutes into it I realized that I really wasn't completely back to normal. I felt really weak and the chill in the basement really got to me.
I got some work done on the piece I am doing for the upcoming Joe Farina Enterprises/Celticwerks Demo (Mid-April in Boston Suburbs).
After that I went to lunch with the kids then slept until 7pm- almost passed out really.
Better now!
Steve

Sorry to hear that Steve. Sometimes we think we are back in business and our bodies say otherwise! Good bid on the nap though!!! Joe Farina Enterprises/Celticwerks Demo eh? That sounds like a good time there!!!

Will hopefully have a few more pics today. I managed to get the suspension arms on last night...no sleepy sleep for me. Was up to about 3AM last night. So I manage to punch out most of a new review. Just need to add a couple bits to the piece and I will toss that up too!!

((LOL)) I finally got to use the new NBW from Tichy on the M51. Man are those small. I posted a close up pic and you can see how small they are. Don't think I'll add any to the train tho.
