| Subject: | Re: Rail cars and carriages in 1/35th | |
| Date: | Oct 9, 2006 |
| From: | Mika Harviala | |
Ironside makes (or made) some rolling stock in 1/35. I purchased the "light flatcar" and looking at the plastic decided to use it as a pattern only. I'll be picking up either Dragon or Trumpeter railgun and scavenging wheels and undercarriage off of them for my rail projects.
Some problems in looking at the plastic:
* The leaf springs have sinkmarks, so they need to be scratched.
* The wheels are utterly basic in appearance
Some good parts:
* Comes w/ a section of track (though Trumpeter is better)
Hope this helps,
Mika |
