NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETLY DIFFERENT

Hello every one,
this is nothing at all to do with sci fi but my friend at ASHTION MODELS Lancashire, asked me if I could build him a replica train body for his 5 inch gauge electric railway set up, so I said I would have a go and this was the result a class 08 diesel electric shunting train used by the old British rail system.
It was nice to tackle something different and I quite enjoyed the challenge.

let me know what you think as this will improve my future models,
take care every one, keep safe.

regards Barrie ( the old guy who will try to make anything )

Going a different direction is sometimes refreshing. The date stamp on the pictures is almost 4 years ago?

What date stamp, I do not know how to set it up it has been the same since I bought the camera, I just take pictures, hell it took me a long time to get used to using e mails and such things. I am an OLD GUY you know,. Cameras in my younger days just took photos. YES you are right doing something different is a good way to keep focused. Sorry about the date TazMan 2000 I will have to try and update the camera.

keep safe and well
my best regards Barrie (the old guy who should keep up with tech )
 
Nice detail work, it looks like the real thing.

Yeah, the good ol' days, when cameras were cameras and telephones were telephones. :)
 
thank you for your kind comments, Mr pixelworks and Mr Joberg, I delivered the model to the owner of the model today and he liked it so much he has asked me to build another replica body for him , which I will probably make after Christmas, Take care every one,

best regards Barrie ( the old guy with an old phone an old camera and just about everything else from the past )
