Great job! Why didn't you use the decales for the nose vs cutting the masks? I know you can buy paint masks for model planes...are there aftermarket paint masks for model railroad locomotives?
The decals didn't cover the entire nose so any color difference in the painted front and decaled wings would have been very obvious. If they had covered the front entirely, getting them to conform around the headlights would have been a little difficult so I decided painting the whole thing would look best. I haven't seen any paint masks for locomotives. I've considered offering some myself but I'll need to figure out which ones would be highly demanded.
Nice!!! I dont model nnnnuhh scale but i think your skills are killer. How much for a SD9E Cadillac in camino placerville and lake tahoe railway.(ho)???
Excellent paint job and especially so for such a small scale.
