Hank OO - WIP

With Rosie now completed, i have now moved on to do my next new project, which is none oter than Hank the American, who is being made with thanks to the inspiration of Michael, a member of the Sudrian Railway Modeller's Forum, who is also building Hank using a Bachmann K4 Pacific.

The model at current has been sprayed after having the excess details removed, like handrails, cow-catcher and chassis, it has then been sprayed with a coat of Ultramarine Blue and left to dry, whilst in the mean time, i am working on painting Hank's wheels, till the body has properly dried. Once it has, i can then add the details back on the model and touch up any patchy areas, the main problem was removing the bodyshell, some parts came unstuck, so i had to glue them back on, which was a real pain, but i am glad they did not snap completely, otherwise, id be in a real state trying to repair the damages.

But luckily, it has been a quick repair, and looks smashing as the moment, i cannot wait to add the other details, but the more time spent on the model, the better he will be. ;)
