Bachmann 7327 Detailing Continued. A Cheeky Little Rascal.

Eveventually I came across some pictures of Collett cabbed Moguls with lining which answered my previous question.

 

Using Fox GWR/BR passenger loco lining I have finished the lining out including the wheel splashers.

 

Cheeky Rascal...

 

The lining transfers were fixed with Johnson's Kleer when in the correct place. Once dry a couple of light coats of Halfords Laquer varnish was applied. To tone things down a misting of Halfords Matt varnish was then applied

 

Cheeky Rascal...

 

A nice front end shot showing off the new chimney and 3D printed Railtec smokebox numberplate and 81E Didcot shedcode plate.

 

Cheeky Rascal...

 

Window frames have been edged in with a Citadel acrylic brass colour.

 

Cheeky Rascal...

 

Real coal added to the tender, fixed in place with Kleer. 

 

Jobs to do include adding flush glazed cabside windows. Front ones are Microscale Liquid Glaze. 

 

Also to do are the two uprights in the tender for the cab weather sheet.

 

Light weathering, add a crew and a local passenger lamp on the smokebox door. 

 

The contents of the photographic plinth are well recommended by the way....

 

Cheers,

 

Mark

Tidy. 

 

Thanks Rob,

 

Can't beat a tidy one as opposed to a filthy one..

 

A Mogul that is!

Indeed. I do like what is arguably your signature level of finish on your models. Very nice.

Hi Rob...

 

This one was an experiment with Halfords varnishes.

 

At one point the lining transfers on the rear of tender didn't look too happy after an application of laquer. 

 

Leaving well alone they settled. Thankfully.

 

Bit more work to do on the finish, but as it's a friend's loco it will be clean.

 

Diolch,

A filthy one proved to be well loved on ANTB.

Thanks Pete,

 

A Fat Rascal is Yorkshire luxury and well recommended tasting when in Harrogate.

 

Cheers,
