"Squee", just got my decals in the mail last night. They look great Sean, excellent work! If I only had a CN project to put them on. Guess I'm gonna have to build a C40-8M or two in the future.  |

So, just an update so far. Every decal from the first run is sold. Thanks again! The last mailer went out today, so those of you still waiting, give it a week and shoot me an email if you still have not received yours. I'm finishing up the artwork for the supplemental set, which will include: - 10 more sgt stripes (which will bring a full set count to 20) - thin orange sill stripes for CN anticlimbers - block style (1960s) numberboard #s (with number 2s in the mix this time...sheesh) - block style numbers for 9600s, and SD60Fs - block style grey numbers for SD60Fs (painted over the windshields) - more Cn style numberboard #s - Gold 15" '2' digits in the post 1985 'Helvetica' style ...which goes against my better judgement, but since most of PSC's rebuilds happened after 1985, I digress and am including the non-distinctive 2. Only the first couple dozen GP9rms in 4000s, 4100s, 7000s and 7200 series had the distinctive CN 2s, the rest (incl. S13u, GMD1s, Sweeps, and the balance of GP9rms) had the plain 'ol Helvetica 2s. BUT! They are the first gold helvetica to be 15" scale high! Pre 1985 "2s" on the left, post 1985 on the right...  This supplemental set will be included in the next decal release. (early March) It will also be available separately for those of you who like BIG units and need copious amounts of the stripes BAD!  |

And they turned out fantastic:  I'm beginning to see what people mean about the Microscale sets, the numbers are quite off but I didn't notice it before I compared the two sets side by side. |

Glad you are making the additions. The GP9s and SD60Fs are the models on my list to build!

That's wonderful Taylor! Such a treat to see them in action! I was forever trying to match the layout of both Accucal and Microscale numbers on the side of the cab to photos, and I could never get the spacing to look just right. I always thought that Accucals were right, but even then I was squishing the class numbers in. It wasn't til I took a caliper to the numbers that I found the MS too short, and the Accucals too tall. They're Goldilock's "just right" now! |

Wow. Great presentation. I like the locomotive in the back ground. You can put my name for at least 4 full set.

Just wanted to say thank you Sean for doing this. Very happy with mine and hopefully won't be too long before a few units are ready for them. |
