54XX Pannier

 Well, the main colour has been applied and I think
the detail really comes out.
 Bit tricky masking around the buffer beam as it is the devils own job to cover black with red- needs about four coats, which, with drying time takes about four days. So the extra effort to mask is well worth it as well as saving a lot of time.
So, when the buffer beam is done and coal added to the bunker, just motifs to apply and a  numberplates to make as no-one makes the number chosen.
Then a couple of fine coats of Matt varnish and it will be ready to reunite with the chassis.Hopefully in time for the next Dorset meeting on the 25th August.
