Walruses and sealions
(Top = second cambrian walrus, not painted: Middle = first cambrian walrus painted; Bottom = Bachmann sealion, suitably dirtied up)
A great days modelling yesterday. The mk1 is nearly finished, save for some roof weathering, will put up a post of this later today. However, yesterday I finished the building of the second walrus (about time) and the first walrus is ready for transfers, with glossed varnish applied for the transfers to be put on today. There is a little bit of painting left to do, such as handrails, etc, but should be finished within a week. BTW if anyone reading knows where to get transfers from to finish this model off please get in touch.....
The photographs show the second walrus built, the first walrus kit nearly painted, and an earlier painted sealion. This is going to make a great engineers train when it is finished. There are two more sealions to weather and I hope to build two whale wagons between now and xmas. I have some kit built mermaids, dogfish, and catfish already built to add to this train, as well some heljan dogfish about to enter my workshop. I definitely enjoy modelling engineering wagons!
Anyhow, modelling is cracking on at a pace this weekend....will put up a post of the finished BSK and also the little halt for Amberleigh soon.
