Mopac Eagle


 

This is for the Mopac guys in S scale.

I just received the stainless Eagle etchings and the MP buzzsaw logo decal and the T&P diamond logo decal to go on the etching.
These are forPA,E and rear of the observation car.

Lindsey,
I made a mistake calling out them to be stainless. They are Nickle Silver.?

I commissioned the artwork from a good friend of mine. He was getting a bunch of stuff etched in NS but did not have enough to warrant a full sheet. So, we went together on one sheet. Thats how I got so many of them. I only would need a hand full so if you and anybody else would be interested in some I will be happy to share for what they cost me apiece. Not sure how much yet, but as soon as the dust?settles I can let you know.
This project started when I wanted to paint my AM PA in Eagle colors. I purchased a set of Micro Scale O scale PA/E decals and then had them reduced to S. I got those finally done and back to me. The problem is I have now so many other projects that this one is going to the side for now.?

So anyone else interested?in some of these eagles let me know.

Emblems are just siting on the PA nose for fit.

Hello Mike,
? ? The etchings look great on the nose.? The heralds on the eagle's chest look like painted enamel.? Are they decals or something else used for the MoPac buzzsaw and the T&P diamond?? Would love to the get some of these etchings for myself.? Hope all that fishing didn't make you forget about me.?
?
Regards,
David Henley

David,
They are decals. I have you on my list.?

?I was concerned if they would bend easily to shape to fit the nose. The NS shaped easily and held its shape. I plan to use Arleen¡¯s glue when the time comes to affix them to the nose.?

HI everyone,
I know it has been a while since I posted the Nose Eagle etchings. I finally received the proper size decal to go into the etching. So those that reached out to me wanting an Eagle please email me again and I can get you your nose Eagle. Also I will need to know if you want the MP or the TP Eagle. I have both.?
?
I am needing $7.00 each that includes the decal.? I will put them in an envelope and mail them USPS.?
