Custom Painting

Unread post by CSX_CO »

I just wanted to let people know that I"m looking to get back into the custom painting market. I did work for Cooper and Ostemo Locomotive Works and freelance before a move to Indiana. I have experience with both locomotives and freight cars.

I did extensive work with 'lease fleet' locomotives and have done CEFX, HLCX (Blue and Maroon), FURX, GCFX, etc.

Anyone interested plese drop me a private message.

No paint scheme or road is out of the question.

Take Care

Overview of them all.

Models were painted WC maroon and CSX blue. All masking was done by hand (that includes the two stripes, done with thin strips of masking tape). Lettering was done with individual letters from Microscale sets. Additional detail parts were added also depending on the model.

Enjoy!
