GEC's Layout Progress

[Green_Elite_Cab]

I'm really liking your continued adventures into resin kits & car sides. I'm also still amused that after all these years, you're still playing with your original 4x8!

Adventures is right! A friend of mine wanted a video of how to put together an Union Station Products kit.... That became a disaster! I don't feel under pressure on film, but its hard to keep everything in frame and do my model right at the same time!

I ended up damaging the side of my Ex-Rock Island 8-6 sleeper (part of my Amtrak Broadway Limited train) while trying to fix a joint that shifted while I was gluing it! I put a big tear in one of the doors, and so I shut the camera off.

Fortunately, I managed to fill in and polish the tear with some Squadron Green putty. It looks good in the sunlight, but only a good paint job will reveal how well I did.

Anyways, I might still post the video on Youtube, since I did get pretty far into the build, and so it should be a little cohesive.
