 Hi Sean,

Great pics, thanks for posting more of them.  You have the ability to create fine weathering; not an easy thing to achieve.  I just don't have the bottle to do it to my locos.  Wink

 Very sharp looking locos Sean. Great painting job to be sure.

I prefer locos looking pristine than uncared for and seemingly resembling junk.   Laugh

IMHO it needs more grime but wheel sets look great! Tadpole

Tadpole: Can't you see, he just barely drove it off the wash rack.  Unlike your empire, his folks keep things clean.Whistling
