I will try the local motoring shop for trimline when I go into town on Saturday, but if I have no luck I may have to call upon your kind offer of the waterslide transfers :)

Thanks, Gordon :)9

I've just noticed that I mis-spelt Trimline as Trinline!   :-[

The stripes from the motoring shop will be called something like pinstriping; Trimline is the model making name. 

Hope you find what you want.    :)9

I agree these are nice looking customs, I too am drawn to the tracked vehicle. Your photos and layouts are also very well done.  :wave:

I think your customs are brilliant FlatCat!!! :wow:
Maybe if you can take off the pump from the top of the fire engine then pumped water through it where it wont get your Playmobil wet you could find out what is wrong.
Maybe it is not tight enough? ???
I am sorry, I do not know much about fire engines,
And I dont have any so I don't really know how to help, but that is my suggestion.
Hope you get it working.

Thanks, Gordon :)

I am really pleased with the way it turned out. I found a roll of 5 different red pin stripes down at the motoring shop in town, but the roll was 10 metres which cost £8.50 which I don't know whether is good or not but I have plenty left now :)

The end result suggests that it was £8.50 well spent!   :wave:

Looked great without the read stripe,
But looks even better with it! ;D
Very nice, the red stripe is a great addition. :yup:
And I agree, 8.50 well spent! :)9

I am constantly impressed by the detail and the customisation that people here put into their Fire themes. There's a lot more chopshop work done than we medieval theme fans do, and it's all done excellently.

Both these customisations look great, and ought to spark interest at Brandstätter headquarters.
