Over the weekend I had the opportunity to catch up with a number of unfinished projects (More this week) including this Devonian Southern Trio.

 

The Bachmann N Class had it's smoke deflectors refitted,crew adding (Dapol/Airfix) and some weathering with Tamiya acrylics via my trusty Expo airbrush. Detail weathering used either Vallejo or Citadel acrylics applied as washes or dry brushing.

Finally ex-BR lined O2 refinished as 197 was also finished in the same way.

These O2's are a superb and Kernow/DJM have produced a cracking model which runs nice and smoothly and is beautifully detailed. Rollon the arrival of the forthcoming Gate Stock....

I'd also like to thank those who replied to my question re: headcode disc positioning. I was duly pointed in the direction of this very useful guide:

Headcode discs are Roxey finished with Halfords white prime picked out with Valejo Panzer Aces Dark Rust.

 

More soon.

 

Cheers,

Some very nice work here Mark.

 

As usual, nice detailing and weathering of stock.

 

Was hoping to hear a little about the Brake van too ;)

 

Look forward to see the layout that these will find a home on...:good:

Thanks Pete ;)

 

The lovely Bachmann Pill Box SR brake van is more or less out of the box and needs the weathering finishing off. I've another one of these and a Queen Mary to do so perhaps a blog entry eventually.

 

Layout wise..More likely 1-2 years but that pesky NG appears regularly as a distraction! :D

 

Cheers,
