Tdgs-z decaled


The two Tdgs cars have been sitting in a box for the last 2 months. While painting over the wrong decals was easy, I waited until the decals from www.modellbahndecals.de arrived before finishing the renumber of the car, which I did tonight.

I could have made my life dramatically easier if I had painted only over the last 3 digits of the car number. Andreas Nothaft has a spiffy set of new car numbers that go with any classification numbers (the first 4 digits). I spliced 074 9 from two numbers and finished it off a third number. Yes, that's a waste. I won't make that mistake again.

The numbers are not perfectly straight. Close enough for the first try. I hope to get better with more practice.
