A final coat of paint...

This month, I decided it was time to narrow my focus a bit and finally get some of these kits finished. So, I picked 6 of my VHGF Grain Wagon kits and gave them a final coat of paint. I'm really happy with the finish on these units.

The final coat of paint is drying...

The last couple of nights, I've started applying the decals. Putting that V/Line Grain logo on makes all the difference...

Finally, some decals...

Couplers, shunters steps, air hoses, bogies and a coat of clear coat and they're done.

Oh, and I also painted up some bogies...

I won't have to paint any bogies for a while
