Take the "Denver & Rio Grande Western" down about 6" on the Grasshopper's tender and you've got a winner!

Looking good! How many more C-16's are you going to do?

Hmmm, this could mean a nasty brush with the 'union' painters, I'd better bring in the paint scabs, just to be sure. :D

So, the Grasshopper looks okay now? Sorry, but the name sticks. :D

Anyways, it sounds better than the 'Grassgrub', which was applied to one setup here years ago. :D Also, nick-names applied to some diesel railcars, were: Tin Hare and Red Peril. Some mainline diesels were received here in the sixties, from a Japanese manufacturer, and they had a strange red-pink paint scheme, which was referred to as 'Nippon Nipple. :D

Cheers Bazza

That's the tender writing made smaller and lowered, next thing would be to downsize the object with herald texture on it.
