So, Lately, I (Dark DJ) have been very busy bidding on Ebay and generally slightly buying things that some would shrug at, and some, like my Missus, would get absoultely furious about. However, I brought something a few nights ago that I thought could be to my advantage...
Whilst casually browing Ebay, a Le Wild LMS Liveried Black Five popped up, with an hour to go before it was sold. At this time, I was debating wether to buy a Dapol Standard 4MT, but this Black Five really tempted me, mainly because it could easily be comverted into an early version of TDRS' Main Character, "Dave".
The model was, unfortunately, numbered 5026, but no matter, today, I went out and purchased some LMS transfers, and, after an entire afternoon of work, ended up with No 5101...
So, here is the model as it arrived, as 5026...
...And here is the final result, No 5101 "Dave" ...
Whilst at the model shop, I also managed to pick up some BR Diesel Transfers, and as I had brought and denumbered a Class 47 a month ago, I decided to create...
No 47527, "Raymond"!
So far, these are the only pieces of modelling I have ever done, but I feel a sense of accomplishment, as I feel I did a good job on them. Have a gander at the images above and draw your own conclusions...
Till next time...whenever that may be...
Dark.
