Brad9826's WWI Memorial GB: Intro and chat.

[Guest]

Good to have the dates firmed up.
OK, I've some ideas, it may be unusual for me, but I think I have to put some figures in this, so I have a couple of months to practice my face painting skills. ( Poor at the moment! )

Dave, I'm in the same boat as you, I'm jut so bad at everything, but hey ho at least I'll try. Good luck buddy.:thumb2::thumb2::smiling:

Wouter hi, thanks for tagging along, this is one or you, how The Armistace carriage....? Big challenge that, but ultimately your decision, I'm sure it'll be great whatever you do.:thumb2::thumb2:

Hi Brad. Now that is actually a good idea, however, does it exist in kitform? I'm not the big scratchbuilder. And the second thing: in general trains are my job (I'm a shunting engineer) and usually not my hobby :smiling2:. Oh well, let's see what google does, who knows I find a kit of the carriage ^^

Cheers

Hi Wouter, I have no idea I'm afraid, maybe the forum railguys know, I'm sure if you take it up, you'll have fun, but it's a massive undertaking, we wait and see on what you decide..:thumb2::thumb2: can you borrow a carriage from work and do a 1.1 scale..... Ok i''ve got my coat...

[Ian M]

I'm not 100% but I think that it was an ordinary Pullman type car. I'm sure that you will be able to find something suitable

[Steven]

I know it is early days but strolling by pinterest I might be leaning toward doing some type of field gun - or trench mortar - if I can find a Hun one :-)

So, just over three months for a GB and it's summer (in the Northern hemisphere) with lots of outside distractions. Well, it's going to be a bi-plane. Shall I play it safe and go with the 1:48 Or rely on a typical British summer and go with the 1:32 ??
