The 09 bogie coach has visited the paint shop.
I said I fancied a light green livery and here it is – Moot Green from Citadel to be exact. I think it gives the coach a nice, summery feel. Well, you wouldn’t ride in an open coach in mid-winter would you?
The wood effect is Citadel Karak Stone dry brushed with Zandri Dust and the sole bars are painted with Humbrol Dirty Black.
I haven’t varnished the coach yet because I want to add some transfers for the stock number and perhaps a logo. The catch is that I don’t have any transfers – but I have ordered some.
Colin Peake designed the coach and wrote his article describing how to build it in order to encourage others to get modelling. It worked for me!

Very nice Steve! Hoping to see it soon. Now all you’ve got to do is paint those passengers you showed me! Are you coming to Leighton Buzzard? David

Hi David, Thanks! I’m thinking of painting the figures over the winter – I can set up a ‘production line’. I’m hoping to make it on Sunday. I’m looking forward to it. All the Best S.

Hi Chris, Yes I wil share a drawing, give me a week or so and I’ll post one. Don’t expect a masterpiece though, I think I was thrown out of technical drawing classes at school 🙂
