The engine is decaled:
It was pretty straight forward to applt the decals. There is a front horizontal stripe that fits under the grab but that wasn't too difficult. The customer wanted the specific number so I had to cut the numbers out idividually. I didn't have the right class numbers so I just used something as close to the real ones. I used Mircoscale's Microsol to set the decals down properly.
After they dried I airbrushed the entire shell with Vallejo's Clear Matt finish. In the past I have used their rattle can matt finish but I find the airbrush makes a better finish.
I should finish this up with some light weathering today.
