In the same vein as 'Pecketts on Parade', a new topic showing the best of our Victory model in action.

 

Firstly, thanks to Dave ( a modest modeller!), a photo of his Victory at the coal stage.

 

The rivets are individual spots of glue, and the weathering is such that at first glance, it appears so real

Thanks!  It was pretty grimy in the photo that I used as reference, but it's the furthest that I've gone in weathering a loco.  It is just cheap acrylic paint dry-brushed and strategically wiped off with kitchen roll (and repeat x n).

 

The weathering helps to hedge my bets on the precise colour of the wartime GWR lettering!
