This engine was really a trial run to see how well I could pull off a warbonnet scheme. I think it turned out alright. I have a few more coming soon and I think they will turn out better. I learned several tricks with this engine to make the others better. Custom made decals just for this project.
Wow! Awesome! And I greet your impatience as ATSF units will unavoidably be released by AZL one of these days. Dom
Complete with some Budd streamliners to go behind them. MRC has an article to print stripes that would simulate the SS panels. Used by some RR's to have something on smooth sides to match.
Doing this paint scheme on this engine had nothing to do with AZL releasing it sooner or later. It was something I wanted to do.
Aaron, It looks beautiful - very nice work! Yes, I believe they will ship well in advance of NTS in Portland. Best, -Rob(A) AZL
