Nice work...love that loco. How long does it take on an average to make a model??? I wanna make a WCAM3 model in the current livery. Also, what are the materials i'd require.

Kharad, It took me around one week to build this WCAM3 model (roughly 3 hrs per day). Additional time to paint it. More minute details would increase build time. Raw materials used : hard Cardboard, thermocole, carrom coins(wheels), good sturdy broomsticks (wheel assembly/pantograph), light bulbs, LED's , battery & paint :-). Good luck with your project !

Ohh.. kharad . i forgot to mention: pencil pieces for buffers :-), round head pins for attaching wheels to the wheel barrow.

Hey Nikhil, thanks a lot for your tips...the WCAM3 is my favourite loco, and am really wanting to make a model of it. Thanks once again, and keep up the work of art!!!
