No.1 - Preparing for Drilling...
In my last update, I was test fitting the tender body. Thats now been stuck together, and once painted with a coat of black paint to show up where filling needs to be done with some milliput, hasn't scrubbed up too badly:
On the locomotive side, I've removed the raised printing and am preparing to drill out the driving wheel splasher. This was done using a cotton bud, some nail varnish remover and some wet'n'dry paper to smooth it down afterwards.
Getting there, bit by bit. I've also taken the liberty of ordering some lead wire for handrails, piping and so on from Ian Allen (having seen the advert in Model Rail for some stuff that looks perfect for my build).
Until next time!
