Hi, This is about where I am up to with version 1.2 of my GNER reskin for the HST. C&C appreciated, If there is any mistakes please point them out and I will try and fix them, thanks. On the Mk3s I still need to get rid of the gold number 1 before anyone points that out :) . I still have to finish the First Class Mk3s, make the Standard Mk3s and do the buffet coach.

EDIT: Oh one thing i forgot thanks to the help from Derek and Richard.

Yes I could do, first I will do it in the refurbished livery and then it shouldn't take too much effort to put it in de-branded livery.

The reskin is looking great, possibly my favorite livery on the HST's.


An idea for future variants:
I wonder if its possible to give the RS MTU 43 headlights similar to the ones in the pic above?
I've always found it quite interesting how a simple change of headlight cluster does so much to improve the HST's streamlined appearance!

I am having trouble finding a picture of the GNER Mk3 Buffet/Restaurant coach, if anyone knows what it says on the side and where its says it or even has a picture of one, it'd be much appreciated.

Whoops, I knew KRS had an MTUed FGW HST but thought the GNER ones had a different light arrangement! :oops:


I need to open ones eyes methinks!

EDIT - Hold your horses!!!
