n War Loco 54mm scale (2 Viewers)

[TomB]

My version of a German War Locomotive 1943.....reduced in scale because I can only cook a certain size in the frypan...Scale 54mm...length 40cm,,,,,Made from sculprey and bits and piece's,,,,,Cost $30 approx....time..who cares it is only a hobby .....using Airfix 54mm figures to show scale of engine....I believe Airfix scale is the perfect 54mm and I use their figures as scale reference to make anything requiring a 54mm scale.....will do a Dio for the loco one day...maybe even make the Tender for it ...had a hectic w/e with the grand kids...amazing the engine survived....in one piece....cheers tomb

Seems like your 77 year old brain working just fine and the hands can do what many 20 year olds can not do. Excellent work Tom.

Tar......as long as the brain can keep fooling the body by telling it (the body) that it is only 20 yrs old I'll be right... who was that clever chappy who said "You are as young as you feel " ..he was on to something that bloke... cheers Tom

Tom your engine looks great. Have you tried to wet your finger and rub it over your product to get a smoother look. This works for me sometimes. Chris.{sm4}
