Having returned from the Med with work late this week I have achieved very little modelling. However, I did manage to find a couple of spare hours on Saturday morning to finish off a 22t tube wagon. I think that this wagon has been built over two years and it is great to see it finally finished off. I attempted to model some replacement planks in the painting of the model, with a weathered bauxite finish. Although I sealed the wagon with Railmatch matt varnish, the overall effect is more a satin finish. The weathered finish is quite dark overall, but overall I reasonably happy with how it turned out and I am looking forward to running it on the layout. This week will see the commencement of track laying on the second board of the new micro layout. More updates to follow.
