Hello

Back from the exhibition. Everything worked fine. The public enjoyed my little dreamworld. I am really happy!

The next step is to add the other railbus.
Made some progress and could motorise it:

Glad to hear your exhibition went well. Everything looks good in photos, so it must have looked even better in person.

Somehow i didn't see much of what you posted on page 3 until today. I like your laser cut leaves. Can you tell me what they are cut out of and what their actual size is? I work in HO and wonder if similar patterns can be successfully laser cut at that scale?

Hello

See attached a foto of my leaves:



It is measured in cm.
They are cut out of paper. It is a size of A4 (21.0 x 29.7 cm), 160 g/m2.
Normal paper is 80 g/m2.

Hello

I could test the loco. She makes the really narrow curve on my layout...
So I can now continue to complete the railcar.

The seats are installed:



And I also added a luggage net on the roof. This is not prototypical...but it looks well...

Hello

Finally got some spare time to continue with my railcar  :D

I installed my stuff on the eating table:



First I made a layer from rusty color as the base. Followed with two layers of chipping fluid:



Followed by chipping the covering color:



To make a faded look I added white and yellow oils:



I brushed the whole thing with white spirit. And finally did the irregular pattern with a little sponge:



Pretty much the same procedure at the roof. I added some more acrylic color to do the rust effects:



To be continuid...
