The "refined" carriage & cross slide.



Now (hopefully) I can get on to coloring..........

Wow, even without paint it looks like you could actually use it!

Initial pre-shading, coloring, base colors and some pigments.
Still lots more to do.

Thanks everyone!
I'm surprised at all the hoo-hah.
Only three (visible) colors; grey, steel & old rust/dust.
The handles, some other colors, grease & oil should really bring it to life!
Oh, and a steady rest  ;)
