Your Loco designs are also a true work of art.
"Building boats, boring"
I'm currently working on a 1:125.5 scale model of the first Destroyer I served in, USS Lowry DD-770.
The scale comes from the fact that I am using a commercially available 36" plastic hull as the starting point of the build.
As a result of "that scale", pretty much everything has to be built from scratch.
The Quick Action Watertight Doors, are approx, 1/2" X 5/16" and have 29 tiny parts each......
boring !
I haven't counted exactly how many of those I will need..... at this point I have four
of them built and installed.
I can truly appreciate your working in a scale where: you almost have to drill the holes in the buttons of your figures jackets, and sew them in place
Keep up the good work !! I could use some "inspiration"

We always learn far more from our own mistakes, than we will ever learn from another's advice.
The greatest place to live life, is on the sharp leading edge of a learning curve.
Lead me not into temptation.....I can find it myself!
