It's been a while since I posted; life, family, work and hobbies all shift in priority from time to time. I've still been busy, more collecting than modelling though, and now I find myself running out of storage space for my stock. Some OO stock will have to go soon to make space as I've really can't see myself going fully to OO and seem to have settled firmly on N now. Though that said, I did buy a sample pack of a wagon and some easy track from the 2mm Assocation a month back.

The little modelling I've done has been in fits and starts, with nothing ever getting completed before I've another idea and I'm off onto the next one, or I'm distracted by other diversions. I'm sure some of you out there can relate.

Anyway, tonight I dug out that FruitD and remembered I'd re-done the transfers on clear paper as opposed to the white backed paper of my previous effort. This will need a patch of white painting on the side of the wagon where the transfers will go, as the decal's lettering is transparent and needs to rely on the background to provide the colour. I've printed quite a few shades of blue to get a match, keying of a calibrated scan of the wagon itself to provide a reference.

So I'm setting some time aside to get this finished. I can then mark this job as done from about thirty odd jobs I've got on the go and move onto the next one and so on until they're all finished. So many unfinished jobs was actually a bit overwhelming, now I've decided to just get on with it, I think it seems more of a challenge. We'll see
