The permafrost in the west of Scotland this week has seen off any hope of getting some varnish sprayed onto completed models (Himself isn't allowed to use the airbrush inside the house!) so instead he's been applying some transfers to the 3mm models he's been building for the Engineering Consultant.
I've always thought the Hawksworth carriages are among some of the most attractive designs ever to run on the British main line network, it's a shame there weren't more that reached preservation.
The lining on the waist and at the top was a bit of a trial by all accounts, due to the transfers breaking up continually - perhaps due to age?
Fortunately the 2-8-0 tank couldn't have a simpler livery because he's been asked to finish it in unlined black.
