Livery change for Hornby N15 Sir Meliagrance

I am considering changing the livery on a Hornby N15 Sir Meliagrance from BR green to S.R. olive green in 1930s condition.

 

As I have never attempted anything like this before I am looking for advice on this project. How should I go about it?

 

From where can I obtain nameplates and cabside plates for this loco?

 

Any advice is most welcome.

Hi

 

If you can get hold of a copy of the January 2011 issue of Hornby Magazine (issue 43) I had an article published on doing just what you want to to (alhough was repaining an N15 into Malachite the priciples are the same).

 

I wouild suggest Modlamaster decals for the nameplate and cabside plates.

Hi Graham,

Many thanks for the info. And thanks for jogging my memory. I do have the Hornby magazine in question and do now remember reading your article. I shall have to dig it out.

I was not aware of Modelmaster before, so will have a look at that.

 

Thanks again,

Chris

Glad to be of some assistance.

 

My own repaint of Sir Meliagrance into 455 Sir Lancelot in SR black with the repaint into malachite of 785 in the backgrond.
