SodorAdventures, I think Caleb means "G.Ruffy", like S.C.Ruffey but with stubble. He's mentioned it in an earlier thread. Besides, Caleb's already well into HO modelling.
Yep! And thanks!  :) To clarify, G.Ruffy is going to be S.C.Ruffy's twin from the other railway. He has stubble, a black coat of paint, and some heavy weathering. (But not out of control weathering.  ;) I've learned my lesson on that one! :P ) Basically, he is twice as bad as S.C. Ruffy!

Oh, WOW, I wrote that all for nothing. **Bangs Head**
Easy mistake, I might have made it as well!  ;)
[/quote] Caleb, Just in my Opinion, don't do G. It SO much more expensive, and I've seen the thomas models in G.....   They are not worth 150 for one. Save the money, and invest tons toward the HO. Make a beautiful HO scale layout first. I had the same problem. i wanted to start too much at a time. i learned that both (projects) won't come out great, as opposed to if you wanted to invest all your time into one thing. Your videos are great. Make them even better, and keep your medium the same. Ho scale trains. ;)   Just my 2 (10000000) cents :P [/quote]
I am trying to make a good layout! As you know, I am in the progress of making a very big and detailed layout. The quarry will hopefully be done within the next few days.  ;)

The G scale Thomas stock looks more accurate to the show than their HO equivalents do, especially Thomas Percy, Annie, and Clarabel.

   Agreed, but I wouldn't spend quadruple the money. I do love them, though! Maybe Bachmann may secretly update the HO scale one's, you never know if they do, but don't say anything about it. ::)   Just saying.

  Any opinions on this Station? Im deeply thinking about purchasing it when it is released.

 

  It would make an interesting Amtrak, and Thomas station.

   If some of you don't know, I now model Amtrak too. Its awesome :)
Are you ready for Dover Valley's Facelift?

Well if nobody says anything, then it won't give Bachmann the indicator that we want newer HO models of Thomas, Percy and James. It seems to be an increasingly demanded item.

Hi all.

It's been a while since i last posted here, I've been working on Belle for the past few weeks, and i am happy to say that she is done, though she is only needing a bell to be added to her firebox, she is complete nonetheless and runs very well for a model that dates back to the 80s.











That's all for now folks.

very nice! how did you get the crest?
He got it off of the trackmaster model. It was a sticker.  :) I think.

It is indeed a sticker, and not so easy to remove either.

Hello all.

Apologies for the lack of updates to this thread, lot of things been going on in my personal life, but, i have a few new updates.


First of all, a new project which is starting soon, you all probably know who this model will become once it has been prep'd.




Secondly, Paxton is almost ready, the face is the last thing i need to complete him, once he is done, i will then be working on Splatter, Dodge and Den as my next new Diesel projects.
