I have also started to draw out the lead-off for the point rodding runs. All I have to do now is work out which cranks need to be at what height and where 'accommodation cranks' fit in the equation.
I was quite pleased with the way the platform face came out. My method of painting the laser cut brickwork worked pretty well, painting with Humbrol brick red (Matt 70) and then the mortar filled with Wilko fine surface interior filler. Finally a light wash of Vallejo grey model wash. I masked off the platform edge and painted the white line, some of the paint leeched under the tape but, when you see photographs of white lines on platforms they were definitely far from perfect.
The signalbox name plate came out well, the relief is probably slightly overdone but isn't too bad at anything like a normal viewing distance.
So more progress, next up is what is best described as a 'speculative' 3D print job. Let's see what the Anycubic photon makes of this.
Thanks for looking.
