The RT Models kit really has the squat, purposeful look of the prototype, even if it does rather flatter to deceive being designed for short bursts of power rather than sustained output.
Himself tells me that although the smoke box door looks crooked in the photo but isn't really.
He also reports that all the holes around the front of the tank have been pre-drilled or cast slightly off centre. Oops.
It's now been given a first coat of primer to show up any faults of blemishes that need to be fixed before it is sprayed with a top coat.
I think it's going to make a nice little model - a shame it's only been a special event performer on the FR & WHR but I suspect we may find a few more excuses to run it.
