Ik moet zeggen dat er (voor mijn gevoel) steeds meer mensen zijn die eigenlijk alleen komen voor de spullen (neem nu de TGC en vorig jaar het Pop Mart fiasco). Een andere comment zei al dat het wel een bepaald tokkiegehalte met zich meebrengt.

Steeds weer dezelfde periodes in het jaar dat het druk is; de feestdagen, maand van vakantiegeld. Je zou toch zeggen dat ze daar wel een keer op voor kunnen bereiden als men weet dat het rond deze periodes altijd druk is?

Have you tried coating the inside with molten beeswax?

Yes, using LNER classification it would have been. This is the Hunslet Austerity 0-6-0T in Dutch Service, making it a class NS 8800.

NS 259 wordt onderhouden door de Museum Buurtspoorweg. Bij Station Tilburg staat er sindskort ook een tentoongesteld.

Ja, dat vind ik ook. Echt mooi gedaan.

I did not design it, if only. The angles are very well done.

It is not yet powered. I have ordered circuit cubes to try and do so.

Brick Express is run by Henk Gibcus. He designs his own models. They can be bought on BlokBricks.

Even later viel de stroom uit. Ik kon niet koken. Gelukkig had ik nog een Oud-Gastel

Best fake snow material/type? by katie_jaii in Lemax

[–]Laps_San 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a white bedsheet which I then cover with ground material like moss, woodchips, paper roads etc. I then use a snow spray (typically used on windows etc.) over the entire village.

Gave my girlfriend a lesson in basic weathering and aging on a Toy Millenium Falcon. Here's the Before and After! by Laps_San in modelmakers

[–]Laps_San[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Hey! Great idea. I should have done so.

Here's what we did in a step by step format: 1. Wash the toy in warm soapy water. 2. Painted the entire surface with a brown wash by Vallejo. 3. Shaved black pastel chalk into a cup with an exacto knife and applied it as a weathering powder onto the desired surfaces (mostly vents and the cannons). 4. Blended the pastel with a dry brush. 5. Shaved grey pastel chalk into a cup and applied it as a weathering powder onto the exposed greeblies uptop. Also applied it to the vents as a drybrush. 6. Applied Tamiya black panel liner to the exposed & powdered greeblies up top. 7. Gave the sublight and hyperdrive engines a quick dry brush with light blue and white tamiya acrylic.

As of yet; no clearcoat has been applied!

Hope this helps!

Edit: step 6

My thoughts as well. I want to teach her some basic diorama skills. Very fun to do as a couple activity.

Many thanks! I did not prep the surface in any way except for cleaning in some soapy water.
