ELEGANT STEAM
Detail of Alfred the Great Class No 1953 Formidable
The lining comprises an outer grey line (I used a 25% grey), Immediately inside this was a cream line then a gap showing the body colour (the gap being roughly the same diameter as the grey line) then inside again was a red line - I used RGB 178-34-34. The boiler bands were black with a red line on each edge.
NB - This style of lining was that used by BR on their experimental livery prior to the final GWR style. 4mm & possibly 7mm modellers might find this lining difficult !!
