Nice color combination Dom!!
This was my very first attempt at painting, way back a few years. It was for my freelanced Heather Valley RR, an old AHM C-liner in HVRR colors

first time painting

This was my first try at a diesel engine lot harder then it look I can't figure out way the paint look like the engine was sanded before it was painted but it was a brand new shell It's a athaern shell all of the rest is from all the parts i had from old engines it runs great I got the light in but not the number broads yet.I think I'll stick to steam engines to paint lot easier
