Here’s a close-up of the front of the firebox wrapper mounted on the laminated front and rear former
Underside of boiler and firebox, smokebox partially soldered. Note the underside that provides motor space in either place
Rear, side and front views of smokebox and boiler attached to firebox.
View etched back-head to firebox. In the finished article, the cab layer fits just behind the etched backhead - not shown in this series of views, as this area was re-designed subsequently.

LIVERY EXAMPLES FROM RECENT E-GROUP DISCUSSIONS
These are trials of my new mixes of PPP lining olive and goods green with signal yellow added. Original Precision Ochre sprayed on plasticard behind. New mix ochre slightly darker
Not pretty, but they were done in a hurry - not leaving 24hrs between lines, as Ian Rathbone recommends. I was just out to see the effect. Lining green also yellowed up!
