Best wishes, John Turner,

Looks good, not convinced about the cab end glazing though, it seems as though it's not quite fitted or sized right? Needless to say, I'll probably get one in green to add to my "fleet"! Badger.

Looks like 25054 will be on my shopping list if there's any room left after that digital camera :o)

Changing the subject slightly, do you take the photos yourself? If so, superb job (and of course as are the others you've been posting) ... and again if so ... what equipment/setup do you use?

Yes, I take the model photo's myself and will repeat what I've said elsewhere in this group:-

I use a Canon EOS D30 digital camera with AF USM 22-55mm zoom set at f 27 with the camera in AV mode using the inbuilt flash and tripod mounted.

The images are then processed using Photoshop 6.

And excellent photos they are, John. They look so good, I'm almost tempted to model British railways - again.

All the best,

Mark.

I don't read to get to see *every* post old bean.

Methinks that we have some of the same at work, if I twist the right arm I may find that one of them may be available for the odd weeked ... sure beats my existing efforts with a digital version of a "Kodak Instamatic".

Flash *** us poor wage slaves have to use PSP.

Ditto. Almost tempted, but not quite. :-)

Sorry, I didn't phrase that too well, just wanted to explain why the same comment appeared twice for those that do.

John.

I quite understand, in other forums I have to resort to , "I refer the brain dead, dishonourable gentleman to my answer dated/timed ... etc. " :-)

I can relate to that! ;-)
