HOUSTON Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Kallisti! O. M. G. !!! I just read through the whole thread TWICE .WHY you ask? Because I had to drink all your fascinating build in more than once as I ADORE ENGINES. I THINK YOU DID A PHENOMENAL job on this Sir,simply looks INCREDIBLY STUNNING. You can Build anything you put your mind to ..shows a real modeler with skills!!! I would say it looks even better than the one I have seen back home in a USA Museum... She looks RED HOT!!! {I ran out of MY LIKES,will be back when BM gives ME more } 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonD Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 I can hear the bells clanging and the ladies fainting from the sheer excitement! The kind of thing that happens whenever I walk into a room... Lovely model! Vintage vehicles might not have been as efficient as their modern counterparts but they were far more interesting to look at... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordairgtar Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 For your next assignment, you must attempt MPC The General Steam Locomotive kit. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallisti Posted March 22, 2015 Author Share Posted March 22, 2015 Um, yeah... um no... lol Thanks for resurrecting this thread from last year. I'm still very pleased at the result whenever I see this on my shelf. Sadly the back axle has come loose after its first show trip last month to Yeovilton. Will need to fix that... don't know if it'll make the trip all the way up to Cosford next month, but it will definitely be at Poole in April and Salisbury in May Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kallisti Posted July 18, 2023 Author Share Posted July 18, 2023 Thanks for resurrecting this thread:) Having just moved house, I had to get all the model down from the shelves and pack them and it reminded me how fragile this model has become. I stopped taking it to shows quite quickly as every time I did, I managed to break something off! After the move, there was one tap and one guage broken off that needed repair. The age of the plastic plus the fact it was red plastic originally anyway means its not got very brittle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeff Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Lovely build, and something different too 👌 Keith 😁 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noel Smith Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 (edited) Lots of character on this beautifully built and finished model. Well worth show casing! Very effective use of metallics evident on this display model. Edited July 20, 2023 by Noel Smith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
