Hi guys,
Here’s an update. Been away for a bit, and I also had to wait for a few more coupler lift bar brackets from Precision Scale. The parts were here when we got back on Friday and this morning I soldered them on, followed by a few coats of paint:
Once the paint has cured for a few days I will add the lettering. I plan to use dry transfers from Clover House and CDS and they don’t adhere well to fresh paint. After that a bit of weathering and it’ll be finished.
Cheers,
Matt
Hi all,
The rest of my lettering arrived today. She’s done:

And yes, that’s real fresh snow. It’s been snowing here since September 8th, which is beginning to seem like a long time ago!
Cheers,
Matt
Turned out awesome!

Well done Matt, Nice as it looks in the snow we would have accepted dry scenery. (https://www.largescalecentral.com/externals/tinymce/plugins/emoticons/img/smiley-cool.gif)
Matt,
I had to do a double take…I was looking for the model to compare to the prototype in the snow! Great job!
Eric
Very nice work!!
