Kof bonnet smoothing again...

Well the Milliput had set nicely so this evening out came some 320 grit sandpaper and I worked it smooth using my workbench with the paper held down against this to get a flat surface finish. I also rounded the edges of the bonnet with the sane technique.

As I guessed there were a few low spots on the surface so I needed a second going over with Milliput.

Therefore to avoid doing a third batch at this stage I finished off work on the cab and exhaust stack. This involved filling the gaps on the front of the cab, and adding some plasticard to the base of the exhaust stack to get the height right. Once ready Milliput was used again to fill the holes in the cab and to smooth the low points in the bonnet.
