That's some great modeling. I'm interested in how you added the DW buffer and installed the couplers (I'm hoping to do this to my Bowser models eventually). Did you just cut the Bowser coupler boxes back so they are flush with the back of the pilot face? Thanks for sharing this project! Dave Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 07/16/17 19:50 by drolsen. |
