I've not made an etched kit for a long time, so what better excuse to dust off the RSU than to put together one of Stephen Harris' kit for the 13T All Steel High.

The etched contains everything except; vacuum cylinder, wheel sets, axle boxes and buffers.

An interesting process is making the chain link dimples in the side of some wagon diagrams. This involves a 1mm punch and a sandwich of etched jigs, very well though out.

Transfers are from fox and the base paint was Tamiya acrylics. This was then sealed in with matt varnish.

The weather was built up in layers using various paints and the majority is done with brush work.
