Well here is the last post on this loco. I have given it a coat of satin varnish mixed with some satin black.

I feel that it has toned down the colours very well. I am sad to be losing it. I may well have to have another go in the future. But needs must I need to earn some money and to buy models for myself. I make no appologise for a photo overload, it's just I like the way it came out.

I wil be getting on with another Southern engine now. For those hoping it was going to be my Beattie Well Tank, I am afraid you will be disapointed, I will be building a West Country class, again this is one of those that will be up for sale at the end of it. I do like them but thay are about 15 years too new for my modelling era. As I am making 2 coaches for myself I cannot justify more modelling time taken up with Items for me.

I thank everyone for their comments and likes. I hope you all will continue to be interested in my models, modelmaking and whitterings.
