The brass & mahogany make very good partners on the boat,
I'm looking forward to seeing your boats at the Exeter show  Question

They'll both be there! Steam boats at a model rail show seems odd! If last year is anything to go by, something a little different went down rather well....

My decal paper arrived yesterday so i was able to finally get some printed for the boat, along with a few others I needed. All the hull needs now is a final all-over coat of clear lacquer...

I printed out two sheets of decals today, one with a clear film base, the other opaque...





These are the clear base type...




I decided to make some little model designation decals for the stern....

A few quick images of the completed Arrow-2 'Marion'. I will set up some better shots tomorrow, I still have a few little things to sort but its 98% there now. Hope you like it. As I say Ill set up some properly lit shots tomorrow, and post in a dedicated thread. Enjoy.

Comparisons with Arrow-1, 'Spirit of Freesteam'.
