  1. I have never seen such an original idea! Amazing effect and fantastic realization!
  2. You're right ...because the wheels are partially covered for this model and only with the 8 wide you can arrange the correct effect; besides the rods are large and unaesthetic with a narrow locomotive
  3. Thanks to you all for the warm consensus! I envy you, just once time in my life I've seen a real BR 23 in action Next BR will be displayed for Christmas holidays! That's one of my programs! Thanks for your point of view, but I think the curvature on the side of this tender is better with the curved slope 3x1 than an inverted brick with curved top. Thanks for the compliments ...and constructive criticisms are always welcome For your question the L motor is powered by the battery pack in the caboose, in the tender there is only a little 9volt battery and a swithc to power the lights.
  4. The first picture is really impressive: the side vents of the Scania are simply perfect! :wub: The metal effect obtained with the panels turned on the opposite side is fantastic! Great crew of trucks! :thumbup:
  5. BR 38-3812 4-6-0 Steam Locomotive As promised here is the new BR for the decade between 30 and 39: the BR 38-3812 About this new steam engine I can say that I like the curious gap between the second and the third axle... ...and I can also say that I really love this kind of tender with its rounded shapes and its low center of gravity... This locomotive is powered by a medium PF motor with a regeared transmission to reduce the torque ratio and equalize the speed at the same velocity of the motorized caboose. The rubber bands have been removed to neutralize any imbalance of speed between the locomotive and the caboose, allowing the wheels slipping during the start The machine and the tender, as usual, have lights... ...now enjoy the pictures ...now it remains only the last one to reveal... ...and the surprise will be under the Christmas tree! All the best! LT12V
  6. Wow T-Rex ...what a creepy beast!
  7. Thank you for your really appreciated words Zephy1934, and thanks for the custom rods you have made for my collection! Soon you'll see it...
  8. Thanks Commander! Thanks Tenderlok for your kind words! My next BR will be posted this next days... For the sticker you're right (of course) but the side of this locomotive seems too naked to me without a logo ...I'm waiting for the decals
  9. A little sit lower would be great ...nice Moc anyway!
  10. You have to use maximum flexibility and cleverness ...for example the BR 22-012 was really problematic so I've adopted the following solution: Thanks Man with a hat ...you're always welcome! This sounds really promising! You just have to insist patiently and results will be Thanks Selander ...but remember two more to go Really challanging but I would like give it a try ...the only thing is that it would be really expensive to buy all those blind wheels!
  11. Wow what an incredible creativity! I like how this mech walk in realistic way and I love the opening for the pilot!
  12. Wow this is the kind of stuff that I love! Perfectly done! :thumbup:
  13. The piston rod is higher than the front wheel ...a picture can speak louder than words: Thanks Nemo57! One of the most problematic part of the side frame was the effect of the rivets ...I had to put a side wedge plate without interfering with the oscillation of the rear wheels It would be great see also your work ...your locomotives are top notch!
  14. Thanks Steve, you just have to try picking up some pieces and start to build step by step What a great honor hear from you Stefano just after publishing this topic! During the next two weeks the collection will be revealed ...so stay tuned! Thanks eurotrash these words spoken from you are very important! The chimney is made with a brick round 1x1 and a tree palm trunk
  15. BR 14-031 4-4-2 Steam Locomotive Hi everyone, after taking a long break from my BR project I decided to complete my collection, making the last three steam locomotives to have a BR in each decade: today it's the turn of the BR 14-031 I like the the wheel arrangement with only two main axes and the large diameter wheels... I haven't yet the decals to complete the work at 100% but the locomotive is operative... ...it is a "push-along" locomotive that must to be attached to my motorized caboose wagon... As always I've implemented the front and back lights on this unit, enjoy the pictures... ...two more locomotives to go... What's next? You'll know next week...
  16. First of all a warm greeting of welcome back Toastie! Thank you for taking in charge this uneasy project. I think that the website rebrickable.com could be a valid option, otherwise I can suggest to use brickshelf.com
  17. Very nice idea! Your calendars are always beautiful Yooha!
  18. I can say just a big: WOW!!! :wub:
  19. This amazing ship looks very fast with that shape! Great work!
  20. Lovely colours scheme!
  21. Amazing curved desk! Great scene!
  22. TOTALLY COOL!!! EPIC WORK!!! :wub_drool: :wub_drool: ...the best mechanisms I've ever seen for my favorite mech!
