    Does anybody know of any companies that do really good top quality model locomotive detailing and repaints?
    Ive looked up TMC but they appear to only do renumbering/namings. Im not to bothered about cost, it just has to be good quality?

    Thanks in advance.

    I would have thought that might be a good one to have a go at yourself? Pretty much one colour, apart from the ends. Colours would be available as spray cans. Maybe get a scrap loco body to practice on? Just a thought.

    I have done detailing and spray painting on models before, im ok, but far from perfect, I want this model for sentimental reasons as opposed to modelling reasons so id rather pay someone to do a really good job.
