Station window progress...

This evening I have been working on the station building again. The windows have been started, and since I didn't really show how I did these when I built the engine shed I thought I'd show in photos the process.

First a scale drawing is drawn up, then the window is tacked over this with masking tape loops to stop it shifting about. Pencils are used as spacers and a metal rule as a guide. I use a bow pen to draw in the frame. In this case I started with a grey/cream colour and then filled in the dark brown afterwards.

The result is only flat but at a distance does a good job or copying the original inspiration, as pictured on this photo of Blamau on the Ybbstalbahn.
