Silver Lining for NS1125 Model
Hello! I realised it’s been a while since I actually posted something, rather than just reacting to others’ posts. So here’s at least one update!
The NS1125 has (for quite a while now, actually) been given some silver stickers for the lining that goes across it. On the real loco it circles around the headlights, but I wasn’t able to cut neat circles in the sticker sheet so I’ve left it like this. It’s still missing some custom stickers for the number plates on the ends and sides, and the windows are actually too far apart (but I like the technique I’ve used, which would be harder to do with shorter gaps).
I’ve also worked on my steam pumping station (NL: stoomgemaal) a bit, which I’ll post photos of soon. Finally, I have a WIP digital model of a Matterhorn-Gotthard-Bahn Deh 4/4 loco — body is done but no undercarriage (somehow I find the undercarriage tiring to design, not sure why). I can post photos of that too, if people are interested!
As for me, I’ve mostly been working on other things, with Lego being on the backburner. I used to keep the Lego at my dad’s house, but he’s since moved and so I’ve now got it at my place. My housing is semi-temporary, though, thus I’m always slightly worried to unpack things because I might suddenly need to move with little warning. So the practical aspects haven’t been in my favour, but I’ve not lost my love for Lego!
Anyway, thanks for reading and hope you’re all doing well!
