That looks FANTASTIC! Gotta make me one of those. If I remember, it is only 3 IJ and one 21st vehicles = Mini Famo.
Very Nice! My compliments to the chef.

Very nice, I was waiting to see the outcome. Now you can tow the 88 or 75.

Hey Triple T,
They're coming ;) I need a bit of time to get to workin' on them :roll:
Wedding planning and aquirements have taken alot of my time as has work keepin' me busy. I have picked up some styrene in my travels and started carving on the leading AA car, but I still need to find more sheets of the 1/8 inch thick stuff to start on the armour sheath for the loco. I do have a couple more choice cars coming for a project to make a unarmoured quad wagon. I'll try to shoot some pic.s later of the project and post them later.

Here, I will add this in. It is the only picture or two I have of the head end armoured frieght car so far at this time.

Not much to look at, but I'm well on the way for the front turret and at least the positioning of the quad flak on the car. But there is still alot of work left to do :roll:

Da General
