Did you produce the Ja as a 3d print too?
ReplyDeleteWhere do you find suitable loco chassis's for these awesome shells?
Keep up the excellent work, regards.
Cheers,
DeleteI've been using aristocraft & bachmann power blocks mostly. The Ja & J are all 3d printed. The Ja has 3d printed gears, making a gear train powering all axles. Pickup via tender wheels.
Very cool Peter quite envious of the large scale, the ability to detail is excellent and something which you've done superbly. I've had to go the other way with my 1:64 scale models and have I stead dabbled in n scale but am eyeing up your models on Shapeways. The Ka on offer does that require the tender to be purchased separately?
DeleteRegards
Cheers for the comments. Yes the K & Ka require separate tenders found here http://shpws.me/GMZj, not entirely sure why, but it's size I think was the reason.
ReplyDeleteThanks for that Peter, I'll start looking for a chassis to match.
