Gah, slow going model railroading-wise lately! Only thing I have accomplished during the last week was to put together the walls of the conveyor house on top of my grain elevator. Need to paint it before I glue in the windows, and the roof.
Finally got restarted on a couple of other projects again tonight:
- Cut away foam where I am going to put my little corner of the Mississippi river for the Minneapolis municipal barge terminal
- Dullcoated my GE 44-tonner, so I can start experimenting with weathering it this weekend.
- Disassembled my GE 70-tonner (took the cab off, pried the glass out), in preparation for painting.
On the 70-tonner I might do a different paint scheme than the paint scheme I used for the 44-tonner.
Maybe do the engine in all black, except for zebra stripes on the front and rear.
Oh well, maybe I'll get a little more done this weekend.
Smile,
Stein
