Just picked this up from glendale this afternoon and finished it a little while ago. I'm very pleased with. It just needs FR lettering, coal load and chopper couplings that i am waiting on and it will be fit to run with the WHR stock. Here are the pics

The weathering looks effective, spray?

Looks nice Lewis.

The only bit I dont like about the kit is the straight dropside stops that hang over the under frame. I guess to brittle to cast in resin. I made some brass replacments on my kit

Matt, I might eventually get onto to doing that, just stuck to the ones in the kit for now.

Greg, the weathering was done by brushing on humbrol paint in grey and brown with a bit of turps, then just dapped and rubbed in a downward direction until it looked how I wanted it too.
