    2 more custom painted items.

    Finished up a couple more this weekend. First is that very old 0-6-0T that I had on here in an undecorated state. It has been painted, decaled, window glazing installed and headlight lenses made. It will be going up on Ebay Sunday night, hopefully it will go crazy.

    A total delight

    It's kind of like having all the good parts of a model RR club without all of the bulls**t. I love seeing what other modelers are doing. Techniques, materials and just a whole lot of fresh ideas.
