I wasn't sure when I would get my Chief but, while waiting I started working on
the Chief's coaches.. Much to my suprise I found I got my Chief Today, Yeppie,
what was even cooler was my estimated stripe (red/yellow for coaches) lined up.
Only thing is I still need to figure out how I am going do the roofs (I'd love
a ton of those grey curves but only have a few.) I also still need to work out
and change some of the details on the coaches now that I have the Chief. I
figure another few days before I will have something more detailed. You will
also notice I tried to crossover and give it a slight resemblance to the
metroliner coaches a bit longer though then the standard plates. Don't mind
those black hand rails with Florencent light fixtures, I was trying to see how
the contrast would be because theres to much grey. I'm gonna switch those with
some of the cromed over rails to dress it up some more.
Here's a teaser for you until the rest of my parts come in.
