    Imaginary Train Station

    Mauther, thanks, sorry wrong shade of red :thumb::mrgreen: now to get a copy in 1/32 scale ( lots of paper & ink). Or is it possible to do just an outline, of the model, & then spray paint it rather than use up all the ink?

    Imaginary Train Station

    Looks good to me. The only thing I would change is the roof to "reddish" colour tiles but with splotches of moss, but that is my personal opinion.

    You may have to settle for a 1/600 Airfix model. You can still get Canberra bombers though:mrgreen: Scans of models are usually a no-no due to copyrite, & also the fact that the scans are usually extremely poor quality.

    Union Pacific BIG BOY 4-8-8-4 1/25 Scale (Engine)

    Mac99 AFAIR the design is for A4 paper & will print correctly to scale. Re the scales, a poll in the predesign stages produced a result for 1/25 scale, & there it has stayed. Tony
