Making Of Lady For HO

[Corrie Thompson]

Hello All Thomas Fans  
I am going to start on my Lady project around December.  The project is to turn an ERTL Lady into a full running locomotive for HO scale.   Anybody have any advice on how to do this.  I also need links where I can get a Lady (as my local hobby center is sold out) get parts, and the short movie clips of that Lady whats his name made.  Thanks for you help.

(PS) Chaz wasnt it you who sent me them movie clips.

If you want to match the color realy well buy the wooden lady and bring it to a hobby store that sells Testorors model paint and try to match that.

Why can't I just use the ERTL one.

Trim Film is your other choice. Cut it with an x-acto to the size you want and then soak in water, slide off paper, and onto the model.

Thanks GG but I need to paint the wheels, not the engine.

Either or.

ACL purple, lightened if needed should work. I'm not familiar with Thomas so I don't know what color the victim is.

Speaking of Lady, i've got a HO Lady Prototype that I just made today!
Her chassis is edited from my Bachmann Percy.  It's only a prototype and it's pretty ugly at the moment!  But if anyone would like me to post pictures of it, just tell me!
