Thank you so much, Carlos! Y’know, I stumbled across a photo of a Soviet era narrow gauge railway and a small diesel was hauling a very big missile sideways on a flat car. I meant to show you to see if you could identify whatever this little critter was hauling! I thought that would validate putting this loco here amongst the military equipment and would make a great diorama. Sadly I have lost it for now, but I am looking. TGIF

Beautiful work Bruce, and a brilliant shade of green. You're moving fast on this, I'm thrilled to follow along.

Duke! Duke! Duke!

Thank you so much for your encouragement. This means the world to me, as I follow your work eagerly for clues and inspiration. Did you build a stagecoach for a project or game series maybe about two or three years ago. Anyway I wanted to see that again because of the weathering. I’d like to do a light overall wash (Maybe the term is a pin wash? Carlos uses the term.) if you have any ideas, I sure could use ‘em! Thanks so much.
