Here's an attempt at an "realistic" version of Rusty. I had a childhood one that wasn't in the best condition, so I restored it with a new paintjob, and added details using sharpie, white and yellow paint pens, and even weathering out of black paint mixed with water. His face is printed on paper, but I plan to replace it with a Wooden Railway or Take Along one. His bufferbeam was sadly broken, so I made a new one using a piece of cardboard with buffers drawn on by sharpie. I also gave him a front coupling too. The spot where his original face was has been filled in with blu-tack with sharpie and black paint over it.
