Adler (locomotive) - Wikipedia

 

i needed a short break from the Indefatigable so thought i would do a OOB kit 

 

here is a quick review of the contents

all the last cut material is quite good, in a few places the cut has not gone all the way through, so 9/10

the PE is chunky, and has been etched, and quite well detailed 9/10,

instructions, seam ok 10/10

casting need cleaning up to rid the seam lines 8/10

started yesterday 28 December

the make up of the boiler was simple enough, as were the forward and after modules, all the MDF is covered in PE

the boiler colour was to light and now i have gone too dark, but will stay this way now, after all would not be a Kevin build if i kept to the correct coloursIMG_8682.thumb.JPG.282fcbc8dd13cda148c3c5094f3a4c02.JPGIMG_8683.thumb.JPG.365a323bd1bbcb32551e175bf00140ca.JPG

Really excited to see someone building one of Occre’s trains or streetcars.  The amount of detail on these models looks fantastic.  I suspect a lot of the passion at Occre is about this subject matter.   

Completed Build:   HMS Beagle - Occre

Current Build:         Frigate Diana - Occre  https://modelshipworld.com/topic/33530-frigate-diana-by-rossr-occre-185/

On the Shelf:           Santisima Trinidad Cross Section - Occre, NRG Half Hull, the US Brig Syren - Model Shipways and USF Essex - Model Shipways.

good evening everyone, thank you for comments and likes, and interesting to see new followers to my ever continuing process of purchasing good kits and making them badly lol

ensuring the ends are flat to enable fitting into the chassis

The brass banding on the green barrel looks spot on. The early loco designs for valve gearing are fascinating. Very nice work, Kev.

Happy New Year Kevin!

 

You’re doing a great job, but it’s a shame Occre made the kit wheels with those oversized “pizza-cutter” flanges. For a display model they could have been made a bit more prototypical.

 

Regardless, your efforts will result in a great model. Is there any track included in the kit for display?

Happy new year to you as well

there is no track contained within the kit, but Occre go a diorama setting display board, but pricey, i have just made a fleabay offer on one and getting it for 1/2 the price, will allow me to put the 3 carriages on following the tenderimage.png.724a2a83247e55cfba6ec84d607475c6.png

good afternoon

 

my fix off wanting to do something different is already starting to go away, but i need to finish this project

from fleabay i obtained the diorama board, the full price is over the top, and contains boards, rails, rail fasteners, sleepers and lots of over sized gravel, i bartered and got a 50% reduction, which is what the true price should be

Very nice Kevin! 
 

Looking forward to when you do get around to building the carriages. I know the feeling when you want to build something, but not the project you’re working on.  A much needed mental reset!
