I like what you did with Rebecca. The Spencer/Molly type wheels looks cool and the added Gordon side rods top it off.

It looks good!

RE: FfarquharDeveloper's TrackMaster Customs - Super - 03-14-2022

You are really making lots of progress on your Spring Break Ffar. I love the color combination on the D199...is his name Boogaloo?

RE: FfarquharDeveloper's TrackMaster Customs - DalaGStanator - 03-14-2022

No, but he does have two nicknames: "Old Reliable" (which is actually cynical) and "Spamcan" (as he is better known). The Wikipedia article on the film Breakin' 2 says:

Quote:The subtitle "Electric Boogaloo", originally a reference to a funk-oriented dance style of the same name, has entered the popular culture lexicon as a snowclone nickname to denote an archetypal sequel. The usual connotation is of either a ridiculous sequel title, or of the follow-up to an obscure or eclectic film (or other work).

Shapeways shell by Out of Oil (@RealMrTreeMan)
Painted in Tamiya Light Grey Primer, TS-34 Camel Yellow, TS-49 Bright Red, TS-14 Black, and Matte Snow White by Apple Barrel. The face didn't turn out well the first time but the paint wasn't really sticking. Oil-based pink and light blue sharpies were dipped into water and were applied like blush.

D261:
Started on D261 by cutting off the nose ends again. 0.25 mm polystyrene was used to fit a basic framework which was used to later apply 0.75 mm polystyrene ontop to get a basic framework down.

Love that Camel Yellow Daisy

RE: FfarquharDeveloper's TrackMaster Customs - DalaGStanator - 03-25-2022

Actually, X-15 is the light green used for the main body. TS-34 ("Camel Yellow") is only for the primer and yellow lining.

I never had any Tamiya products, so I looked up the paint numbers she mentioned.

More commission-related stuff. Finishing the other coaches tomorrow hopefully.
Also, big package from Japan arrived with that big lot and the flatbeds + their corresponding characters (Terence and Caroline not shown)
