Not sure if I shared this set, got out the can of green and went to town.

Hello tinman,
that is a lot of green !! But they look fantastic.
Have always admired customs and it seem such a great way to preserve the write off's.
I have just started to explore making my own 'one of's' by taking totally trashed commons and mixing and matching parts such as toe joe with 8 wheel crane boom.
Yesterday I bought a mini sand blaster gun that connects to my mini spray paint compressor and it's great for removing rust on wheel axles and of course removing the old paint. I found it works exceptionally well on old rusty scaletrix tracks as well including the joining pin areas at the ends of the track.

When I get more free time I'll have a go at some custom repaints with various slide on transfers.

regards,
steve

That's OK, Dave steals all his good ideas from me anyway

(he said ducking from flying paint cans)

Dave, put up the pics of that police vehicle collection you made.

I wish I could throw that far. Lets just say we share ideas.

I was kidding with that comment. Everyone knows we steal our ideas from Andy Mc Coy and then claim we thought of it first.

The competition looks a bit stiff here re customs.
if i were to upload pictures of my attempts so far i would do nothing but humiliate myself
