Great work Steve, looks brilliant. Well done..... Almost tempted :shock:

Just leave it to marinade in a muddy puddle for a few days. :D

How good does this look - perhaps a future commission for the maestro ?

Western Pioneer returns to Portencross after a repaint at the Mumford Works and is immediately allocated to haul some China Clays...... won’t stay Black for long if regularly rostered to Clay workings !

Let me quote you for some ‘heavy’weathering. :D

I can even see where I painted the exhaust soot under your lighting.

Latest repaint. Converting another Heljan Western from mud brown to desert sand.
As always the yellow panels are a challenge but this time it’s compounded by the original Tampo printed crest and warning signs reacting with the paint. I always run this risk as I like to leave them in place to show where the new decals go when finishing.
Anyway, a quick rubdown and selective masking and we should be ok.

That’s the main colours blocked out and drying - ready for the detailing. It’s a bit chilly in the shed though - makes my hands shake. :D
