SP&S RS-3 #81

[mechanick]

Here is the finished RS-3 project I had started a few months back. This is my finest work yet and I am very pleased with how it turned out. The weathering was done with an airbrush in my typical fashion, but then I experimented with PanPastels to achieve the fine detail that really makes it stand out. Feel free to ask about the methods I used.

Nice work! Whose RS3 is this?

As a WM modeler, I have to say RS units just don't look right without those number boards.

Excellent, Nick, very well done!!

Very nice detail and weathering both. I think the only thing that would finish it off is Sergeant Engineering couplets. Other wise I like, thanks for sharing.

This is an Atlas model from the most current run of RS-3's. It features a Loksound decoder installed from the factory and one of the most noticeable changes for this production run is the smoke stack. Now it looks like the prototype. Thank you all for the compliments.
