Sorry...i was thinking bell...duh.
Fortunately for me I'm not concerned about exact detail....I like to move the bells,add obvious stuff like big winterization hatches...but otherwise I don't worry too much about smaller details or exact colour shades...I tend to heavily weather my locos ...so I'm happy if they "feel and look" right.
But I do look forward to your progress pics.

I had the same mindset as you when I bought the pair: good enough, a few details and a good weathering. I think that's a good approach and the model lend itself to it very well. Unfortunately, the more I discover "errors", the more I see them; call it perfectionnism at it's worst! I presume I'm under Doctorwayne's "bad" influence to push my limits. Anyway, the price I paid them, I feel like I can experiment a little bit and improve my skills.
