The Lowmac has been through the paintshop and the tedious task of applying transfers has arrived. The wagon depicts an unfitted type and this means that the white lettering has to be on a black background. The backing transfer was applied, using acrylic matt varnish as an aide due to the lack of stick on my ageing transfers. These were then left for a day and then the lettering applied. An extremely fiddly job- the result in the lower picture took me best part of an evening to complete. And yes I know the number is wrong but I am not going to buy a new sheet of transfers for one wagon.
I think the result is well worth the effort.
