mountaingoat Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 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 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
81A Oldoak Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Here are a few photos of my Minerva Victory "VICTORIA" on my Cwm Bach layout. The superstructure was genttly polished with T-Cut before weathering. The loco crewmen are by Model U. 10 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMY Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 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! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
