Guys, it's a project that I started last year, not so ambitions if compared to many others in this forum.
Below the prototype photo:
The HO scale model:
A Proto 2000 GP9 Phase 3 was used. This is the model that fit almost perfectly to Brazilian's GP9, some minor modifications on drop step, horns, air hoses, and trucks were necessaries.
The paint was removed using alcohol.
To paint my models I use automotive colors by Dupont. For minor details that couldn't be removed I prefer using acrylic paint (nose grab irons)
Masking the pilots to apply the black color:
After the painting work:
Applying decals:
The trucks are especially remade by a friend, using the original ones. He does the correct ones in resin.
That't the final result
Comments are welcome, thanks
