@Larry Mullen posted:Nice work! I thought long and hard about removing the feedwater but decided not to. How did you remove the cab lettering? Mine would not budge with lacquer thinner or rubbing alcohol. I think I'll sand it down and try to match the black sheen as best as I can. Did you use an airbrush to paint it?
Well this was an MTH berk so it was painted like an NKP berk. So the entire shell was sand blasted and then sprayed with a simple black and matte clear. It was done very quickly so the texture is a bit course, but that doesn't bother me. The paint was shot with a spray gun. I plan to make another one at some point using 3D printed parts.
Here are some more photos of the engine now.
