Great, adds that extra realism to the extra realism already there ;D Do you have a macro function on your camera, and is it activated? If you have something called super macro (or something like that), try that  |

I will say that I have one major issue with the work that you have done on this vehicle and others. It is so good that it means more work for the rest of us trying to model our own stuff to a similar standard.....  Seriously, top job Metman!  |

One complaint. That de icing light is way too bright, those lights just glow quite dimly in reality. |

I think it may be the camera showing the light to be brighter than it is. However, the problem with using LEDs for model railways is that they can be too bright. I normally paint over the LED to make it appear duller.
Thanks Jim, I'll look into it.

Modern LEDs can be very bright... as for me, I would have added a resistor in series with the LED to decrease current flowing through one.

Is that the same one you brought to the meet? The tail light on that was quite bright but I don't recall seeing the de-icing light on.
Still, fantastic work.

No I bought my CO stock car to the meet. It had both tail lights painted so they would look less bright.
