DO YOU LIKE TRAINS TOO?

[MrT]

I am getting ready to start on only my second diorama and it will be called "DO YOU LIKE TRAINS TOO?". I am a little intimidated by dioramas because every aspect of modeling is touched on and if any one of them is not done well it effects the whole project. I have decided not to reveal the theme of the dio as I want you to figure that out as we go along, but I think it will become clear soon enough. One of the main components of this diorama will be the Trumpeter 1/35 scale BR52 locomotive and that is where we will start. I will be doing a early/pre-war black and red paint scheme because I want the locomotive to be the lure that draws the viewer into the scene. As we go along I will be adding several figures and other equipment so stay tuned. I hope it will tell the story I am shooting for.

I finished step 1 of the locomotive. It hit me just how big this thing is. The frame is well over a foot long.

My dad and I used to have a very large train layout in the shed. Had a lot of fun playin around
with it. In fact I done my very first weathering on the goods wagons. So Iam looking forward
in seeing this wonderful subject come too life. ;D

Excellent build Krashk.
When observing this model, I'm waiting for the steam and the start to move out any minute.
Love steam locomotives.
