Awsome Sunhuntin! Today I started work on my Military E-2 (AKA Big Beautiful Doll)
It's basically a normal Trackmaster Thomas but I have gotten rid if his details and decaled him with military marks and signs (Was also able to get the engines name made!) I now gotta get a boiler door and weathering equipment as I plan on heavily weathering this loco and maybe even drilling little holes in it to create bullet hole effects. I will also make a stand for it that will have cannons and Ho Scale military personnel and a realistic ground, rail, and background. This is all I got so far but I will keep updating it.

There are tons of other decals but those will be shown in time. I may even make a twin of this loco and have two army E-2's!

Does anyone have any recommendations for a boiler door or know one that will work? If so please send me the link as I'm afraid to order one and get one that dosent fit.

I am thrilled to start seeing some pictures but could you resize this to no more than 960 pixels wide?
Sure! I'll have it fixed

How did you get rid of Thomas' decals?

You also gave me an idea to do with my Thomas.

Filing mostly. I then sanded it to a nice smooth feel. Other Thomas may work better like the ones with stickers as they are easier to have the details removed
