A 73 starts to look like a 73 and a 32 is painted


I have done some more work on my 73 class project, adding some more details. Just about to move on to the handrails, which is a little bit scary. 



Above you can see how bland the loco looked compared with adding a few extra details, such as window framing which help to create the "73" class look. 



I have sprayed my pair of 32s, 3214 and 3390 (not shown) once a bit of time is allowed for the paint to cure I will begin final assembly and testing. Tamiya flat black was used, Testors Gloss coat applied prior to fixing decals and Dullcoat was used to finish. 3214 has a little bit of red along the footplate to jazz it up a little. It was very tempting to spray one of them Crimson like 3265 is at the moment.
