And it's near enough done - might have to do a little more weathering, but I'm calling it a day.

Nice tidy build and a clean finish. Certainly looks the part on the base. Great work my friend

Thank you both, just got to sort 'levels' now - a wheel is 'floating' at the moment!

That came out "sweet"! As you said just a little tweak here and there with the weathering and good as gold. Rick H.

And just spotted a mistake - must've grabbed the wrong paint, copper instead of brass! :tongue-out3: :fearful: Don't think that I'm going to rectify that until/unless it starts to glare at me!

Thanks Tony must admit that the more I look into them, the more I'm intrigued by them, radical, yet a simple way of doing it.

Yes , its brilliantly simple but effective . Take a bathtub , nail some wheels on it , add a propeller at the back and we’re off! Like an episode of Last of the summer wine :smiling5:
