And it only took 3 decades for me to finally make a Thomas display I can be proud of

On a scale of 1 to 10 how cringe is it that I just cried to my own cover of The Red Balloon

@ColeManJo420 It was my aunt’s so sadly I don’t know

@mixmavism Genuine question, where did you get that display cabinet? I'm looking for something like this

And it only took 3 decades for me to finally make a Thomas display I can be proud of

@steam_attack Nah he can hang. He can always hang

@mixmavism Travis be like

@RageMP3 Probably the metallic narrow gauge engines ☺️

@mixmavism Absolutely killer ertl collection! Love it :3 what's your fav piece in the collection?

@_brocomotive That specific one is from a cast of the original face, so not exactly. But I used it as a base to sculpt all his other faces

@mixmavism So good to see your Rheneas replica again, he's lovely! If I recall correctly, you hand sculpted those faces for him, right?

Funnily enough the only ones I’m missing are the Christmas ones

The whistles on top were my grandfather’s, he was a transit worker. The Rheneas on top I scratch built in 2020 from basswood and card stock with a working wheel mechanism. About half of these were my childhood ertls, and the rest I got on eBay in 2016/17

This theme has always proved a difficult, but I got it clean enough now for release. Stay Tuned for Feb. 10th

@Aceoftrains Nah…maybe next year

@mixmavism Thanks friend! I'm quite happy with how well it holds up after seven years. Are you working on anything btw?

Been a while since I said this was perfect. It’s still perfect. Turned my like into love. tysm @Aceoftrains we’re not worthy. on.soundcloud.com/uTBruJTPOaPMnr…

@SmartAlec80 I treasure your work

@mixmavism Well, maybe not that. But I’ve come a long way with my instrumental career. I’m glad people enjoy them so much. I hope to have this full episode done by December

And life just keeps on going :D

One last thing I thought id touch up before I leave tommarrow. Don't expect anything new all to soon, this is the last thing here for a bit.

I made another piece for the RWS 80th Art Collab, tried doing a Peter & Gunvor Edwards style here, enjoy! #RWS80thCollab

Junior Campbell please drop Henry’s crash theme from Fish pls thx

*this* is why we need new scans. the richness in color is totally gone in the restored masters. those beautiful kodak shadows. you can’t get that from a telecine.

@cartycinema 💯💯💯💯💯💯

you vs the guy she tells you not to worry about

time for a little marathon

The pilot has really made me want to see S1 & 2 restored in the same fashion. That to me is now the gold standard
