Z scale stuff.

Replied by JMCmodels on topic Re: Z scale stuff.

Walter, it's very easy. You just need to spend two Preiser workers. Some sort of kit-bashing et voilá.
I use this formula several times.

Hope it helps!

Cheers,
Joao

Walter, you can just make one single driver and then try to make resin copies. This could easy the work.
If you need something in resin, just let me know.

Yes, it is! That ''bullet nose'' front is unmistakable. I like Studebakers. Starlights and Larks. Unlike most people, I love the 1959-63 Studebaker Larks.
This one will be a Champion Starlight.

Here's more Z stuff.
This time a boat, a 85ft Harbor tugboat (WWII Army ST type)

I love boats, too. This is my first serious try of making a boat, despite being just waterline, not full hull.

Thank you guys.
I'm offering these tugs unpainted. Yes, many details need to be added. Photo-etched parts are something which I'm not used to work with. It's something new to me, I confess.
I'll let the modeler add the details he desires.
I have made eight tugs, for now.

They are ready to paint and ready to ship, too.

Cheers,
Joao

Joao, send me an e mail on how I can get a couple of those.. I'm unfamiliar with international shipping.
Even has side lights and name boards. Those would be fun to detail.
