Complete model of Paxton, now available to view in gallery!

We are pleased to announce that the completed model of Paxton from the Sodor OO Works, is now available to view in the Gallery. Click the link above to head over to the Sodor OO Works gallery to see this recently finished model.

The model was made using a Bachmann Thomas 'Diesel' with a trackmaster Paxton face donated for the model, for the paintwork, Humbrol 88 is a close enough match for the body, Humbrol 154 Yellow was used for the hand-painted lining.

And for the finishing touch of weathering, Tamiya Weathering Master was used to give him a grubby look. Overall, the model is much better than the original, smoother running and highly detailed.

Paxton looks really cool. A fine job done creating him in model form, and a huge improvement from the Bachmann Branchline version. I hope to see him in upcoming videos.

Looking forward to seeing Sidney being created, if there is a face you can find or make for him!

The World of Thomas The Tank Engine Modelling is an online model railway community that specializes in modelling Thomas the Tank Engine characters from the hit television and railway series in scales OO/HO, N, O, G and 009. The community was established in early January 2012, after a brief long discussion with fellow modellers from sites the likes of YouTube, Bachmann and Facebook e.t.c.

The idea was to create a small but manageable community, where modellers alike could come and share their interest in modelling Thomas & Friends. Through the building and development of the community forum, came the community blog, which was then created, followed shortly by our very own YouTube channel and Facebook Community Page and Group!

Although we are a small community, we pride ourselves to model with joy, and model to the best standards we can achieve, we welcome criticism, so that we can work on making the models better and much more accurate.

We have a friendly few staff members, who are always willing to lend a hand and give advice where needed, and we do advise that new members looking to join the community, please use 100% accurate information when filling out the registration form. False and misleading information is not tolerated, neither is bullying, harassment or any other kinds of racial behavior, no matter what the age or gender of individuals.

The World of Thomas The Tank Engine Modelling accepts no responsibility for the loss of account information, passwords and all other data. We have strict rules about accounts, and we will remove any and all accounts that are used by persons who have not registered in the correct manor, this means users giving out account information to persons unregistered to the boards, to gain access to threads and content posted by our users!

We are always willing to help new modellers with works in progress, and always happy to give advise and tips where necessary. We hope that you will all enjoy being part of our Facebook Community group as well as our community forum.
