'Arry and Bert OO Projects - Wasp Stripes Applied!
The wasp stripes on the front of 'Arry and Bert's models, have been applied by hand, it has taken some steady time, but they are done, and just need touching up where necessary.
The wasp stripes are the hardest part of any model, even professionals can sometimes get it wrong or make simple mistakes when painting, but, with a steady hand, time and care, they often turn out how you would want them, and i am very pleased with how mine have turned out.
The lettering is the only thing left to apply to the bodies, besides working on the faces for them, and they will then be ready.

Arry and Bert OO Projects - Slow Coming Together!
The 'Arry and Bert projects are slowly coming together, they have already been given coats of Citadel Foundations 'Liquid Green Stuff' and Humbrol Acrylic RC407 (Yellow).
I'm going for the Series 5/6 color looks, rather than the Series 8 to 16, since it stands out more, i am not sure what faces to use at current, but i am debating between the trackmaster 'Arry and Bert ones, or, bashing the CGI Diesel face to make it look more like the CGI 'Arry and Bert ones.
The lettering for 'SODOR IRONWORKS' i already have, which was left over from the Splatter and Dodge name transfers, so hopefully, my models of these devious diesels, will look like the TV pic above, once finished!
