I liked the idea of it hinting at the old North British workplates, so only looked at a diamond.
I expect that the cost of metal plates would have been prohibitive ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I still think it would have worked better in the diamond!
Original scamps...

These are very old now. A few Southern pencil drawings.

How I draw ballast. Laborious!!๐
Still a favourite! A little bit of detail from my 4VEP illustration.
I'm pretty sure that the SETG are still selling prints of this to raise funds for the restoration of 3417.

Blush, blush! Thanks a lot Gareth, always fun working on your projects!๐
A nice little package arrived from @LNER today (thank you!).
My 'Swallow' print plus a couple of pins which were based on my illustrations, which was nice.
No prints or pins available, unfortunately!
I'm working on the detailed, colour version of this over the weekend. Will be GNER livery on this one! A while yet before prints are available as I've a lot of other work on the go.

Class 70, Eastleigh. Pen and ink drawing...
A bit of detail from another old one...
Little sketch...
Detail from an old one I did for @lner.co.uk ...
Some of my postcards picked up from the @LNER stand at The Greatest Gathering...
What a terrific event that was!
Thanks Gareth. A fun thing to work on. I've only got the 450 here so have to make sure I get the others.
I think I saw most of what was there, certainly clocked up a few miles anyway!
Aha! I wonder what that could be?๐
Did anyone manage to pick up any of these at @greatestgather ?
I designed these little pin badges for Angel Trains. They were giving them out as game prizes on their stand. A nice little set if you were able to get them!

Very nice at Theale just now...
Illustration of a Class 52 locomotive hauling a passenger train along a stormy sea front.
Exquisitely captured by @tomconnellstudio.com, and for reasons I can't fully explain this might be my favourite piece of all of Tom's work. That loco, that setting, that style. Again 10/10, no notes ๐
Ooh, thanks Gareth! The second Western I did along that few miles of beautiful coastline.
Here are a few HSTs...
(I still have prints available of the cloudy pair in the bottom centre image, available from my website, link in bio)...

Thanks Jeff. A while ago now!!
