Paxton MK II - Lining Finished!

The lining around the whole of Paxton's body has been completed, and only now requires a slit touch up here and there to neaten it, other then that, it is going nicely.

Paxton MK II - Progressing Well!

The recent project has been coming along better than i had hoped, the paintwork has turned out nicely, which means i can now move onto the next part of the body, which will be the lining that runs around his whole bodyshell.

Don't worry to much about the little patches of primer still showing, these will be dealt with. :)

Paxton MK II - Work in Progress!

A good morning to all this 1st of May.

We've been very busy updating pages and links the last few weeks, but now have some new work in progress images of Paxton the Diesel, courtesy of the Sodor OO Works.

The model is being made using Bachmann's Devious Diesel as opposed to the UK Bachmann's 'Gronk' shunter, the Thomas 'Diesel' is more accurate for Paxton, and seems to be a far smoother runner, with better detail to the body and chassis.


We will post more photos of the work in progress model as they come, but this is what you can expect once he is fully detailed and weathered down! :)

It's quite stunning how much work Stephen has put into his models, something i couldn't do on such a large scale, but i adore his modelling because of the time he has taken with making them and giving them their classic faces, old and new. :)

We hope that you will enjoy seeing his work showcased here, as he deserves much credit for what he has done and produced.

Homemade 'Thomas and Friends' Video by Stephen Sheredy

It's amazing what you can do with time and patience, and once again, our friend Stephen has captured the Skarloey Railway's image with his superb modelling. They are dead accurate to the television series models, and are truly some of his best work ever to be showcased.

Also shown in the video, Stephen has captured and feel and setting of the episodes 'COWS' and 'SOMETHING IN THE AIR'  from the classic stories and scaled them down in OO gauge, again, it is quite something, and it is definitely worth watching if you are a fan of Thomas.
