Yeah, the silver roof might need a fair bit of weathering to look real, but I wouldn't be as bad as the 'polychromatic' blue (metallic?) used in 1949 on the dome roof cars.
As for matching the light blue - just pick the one you like best!

You can make that five liveries - they appeared in both Princess Blue with white band and the post-48 Matterface blue without.

Shame Leeds never came up with a livery which used those curved beadings at the ends.

Looking good. Thinking about the glazing, and seeing just how fine the platform window pillar is on the pivotal, could you redo the print with much finer verticals for those quarterlights so that glazing from the rear would still match the rest of the flush glazing?

Hi RedDevil, Having got one of these off you I can see why you're so pleased with them - the detail really is good, and as you say the print works really well for the traditional tram type.
The little dots from the supports required during printing are so easy to get off, much less work than putting together a plastic or white metal kit. And of course there are no joints to fill - great!
Will definitely be back for more.
F5 x 100k, a big thanks.....

Very nice work, ooh and a side destination, an often ignored detail even by the likes of EFE.
