I have been putting this job off for ages.
Having five Blackstone steam locomotives four K27s and a recently swapped D&RGW C19 with Barry, some with factory weathering and others without I thought it was time to get my act together and get this job completed.
During Covid we were restricted to not travel outside a 5 Kilometer radius from our homes so I placed an order with a local hobby shop for a range of new AK Interactive acrylic paints that they had just received. Smoke, Soot and a few others were delivered after about 10 days.
I had previously copied several prototype loco images to get an idea of how I wanted to weather my lot.
Here are a few images of my efforts with weathering and new coal loads in the four K27's.

The C19 can wait a while as Barry had added a new coal load to it and it looks good as it stands at the moment.
That's it for this post.
Rod.
