Wow! Good news. Are you going to round of the bonnet top? Darker blue and a funny capped exhaust.

Definately needs to have more length, and gain a more 'trapezium-esque' shape.

Too right David - but remember this is Murrays first ever peice of Rolling stock, so I'm expecting a few versions, as you would with any builder.
Also I've decided to rebuild Annies valve gear, and cab roof which will be done later. The textures displayed so far are only temporary BTW.

Dolphin doesn't have a 'funny capped exhaust' - that's only Walrus, which also sports alterations to the bodyside and a dome.

Are you trying to texture the wrong side of the bodyside by any chance?

I'll have a go at poly smoothing it.

The textures are basically temporary, I'll make a better set once the model's right.

I'll look into that, yes, but unfortunatley I don't know the precise length of the prototype. I really should have brought a tape measure to the Isle of Man...

I think I've done it right, but I'll proobably re-make that part of the body so I'll have a better look then.

Murrray,
I'll mesure Harold for you as they are the same type.

William - width would help Murray I'm sure as well - and height to bonnet top. Also wheelbase?

Yup, certainly would! Any idea when you might be able to find this out?

He'll find it out by measuring it Murray.......

*Sigh* I'm aware of that Jon....the question is when can he measure it?

Read the question wrong Murray. I would say I'm sorry but I'm really not.
