My WbB Dash-9 Fantasy scheme...

Well done.  I have a WBB Dash-9 that I'm going to repaint within the next couple of months (I'm in the process of stripping it now) and I hope it turns out as nice as yours has.  

Very nice.  A really superb result.  You got very crisp lines (and I know how hard that is to do, believe me) - very good work.

Tamiya tape and a pair of digital calipers make it work for me! I use the calipers scribing points to draw out my lines and then use Tamiya tape for the first masking. I use Surtape after that to cover but the Tamiya, applied right, NEVER bleeds. Thanks

I wish you wouldn't do things like this, makes me want to try it too,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but I have 3rd grade skills , so I won't be able to. Looks great from here.

How about it LIONEL,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,here's one that will sell !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good show,,Rod

Very nice. I have a Williams CNW Dash-9 that I changed to a Cotton Belt.

Thanks Rod........but this was all done with spray cans. I use Dupli-color paints from the auto parts store or big box store. I also use Tamiya model paints from the hobby shop. Both are pretty fool proof with just a little practice. I mask with Tamiya masking tape which is great too. Microscale makes decal close to these...I just wanted a Chessie C on mine. Try repainting a cheap box car or even a Plasticville building. Thanks

Dave, 

That CSX has a bit of NS Horsehead flare to it.......I like it a lot.

CSX should give you a call about doing heritage locomotives for them!!

I used to use tamiya tape and really burnish the ends...try frog tape...regular or low tack! The adhesive coagulates when something liquid hits it and seals the edge.

BTW- nice new paint scheme ya did...I'd go a fallen flag if I had an engine like that one....a nice chinese red and grey.

I think that looks really sharp, and is at least as good looking as other WBB factory paint jobs.

Well done!
