Nameplate advice

Who was this one by? Guilplates by chance?

Yep

 

[OzzyO]

Thought so.

Lothian are by Shawplan, very good
Mary Q of S Severnmill, better in my opinion but from normal viewing distance no apparent difference except the thickness.View attachment 40027

Thanks Warren

Severn Mill every time!

Severn Mill it is then.
Don't want to come across as pernickety, but it's often the details that let models down,
and as it's a sizeable investment (for me anyway) it has to be right.

I quite agree, bad plates do let a model down.

Severn Mill close up.

60085 is Severn Mill and 60098 is Shawplan

 

[OzzyO]

Not a lot on the brass plate that I can see, on 60098 or have you put on the wrong way round????????

OK, the door has shut and I'm on my way home,

OzzyO.

Unfortunatly there is no brass plate supplied from Shawplan so I had to improvise with a bit of brass strip. Surprised actually that there was not a brass plaque for this supplied. Anyway it looks ok from 20 paces and when running round a layout.

Hi,

I like the Extreme Etchings range by Shawplan: https://shawplan.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/img_8249.jpg

I thought the Guilplates one was the Scottish league football scores...
