I plan to visit a local model RR club tomorrow to see if they have the decals in their stash. If not, Black Cat will be the other option.
I've got two weeks off work for Christmas so I'm managing to get quite a bit more done.
I masked off the smokebox:
and then painted everything
I chose two different blacks. Polly-s steam power black for the boiler, cab and tender body and a more charcoal black out of a rattle can for everything else. The steam power black is a slight semi-gloss that will take water-slide decals a bit better. I'll tone it down with some weathering later.
