Would tempt me into 7mm if I could afford it.

Very nice - the boiler bands have turned out excellently. Handrails should be body colour though (green adjacent to green, black adjacent to black).

Very nice looking loco, I'm sure once it gets to the U.K. it's owner will be delighted with it.

I will send you a PM shortly.

Thanks.

Yes I understand they should be, but with the boiler being a separate part it was not added until after assembly. Maybe I will touch them in and re varnish.

Thanks Dave

I am pleased with it. I was unhappy with the black on the body but fortunately the varnish brought it all together nicely.

Hi Pete, well you've made my day :-) I've just come from catching up on your excellent LSWR thread and now see your Mogul finished. The way you've got the sheen just right on that loco is *very* good, I think. As WD0-6-0 said above, this is the best kind of advertisement 7mm modelling can get.

It is almost finished the body and tender are done, it is just tweaking the chassis to get everything spot on with the body on.
