Just a very quick update as no modelling was done today, I thought I would post a picture or two.

They all show progress on the painting of the tank body section.

I am not totally happy with the colour, but I know the green before 1928 was different. The loco is based on a photo in 1930 so I assumed it was in early green.

I am thinking that by the time it has been put on the black footplate, has the transfers and is covered in satin varnish, it might tone it down a bit.

Hi

 

The green seems a bit 'bright' to me - but that may be down to the image processing. Which paint range are you using (and I appreciate the potential issues re your location!)?

Hi It is actually a Halfords colour I got the name from a published list of car colours which would do for railways. I am tempted to strip and do in precision post 28 which I have. Or to see how it looks when weathered.
