Some customers ask for magical transformations to their models, so to mark 20 years since the first film, "Harry Potter and The Philosopher's Stone" I've invited the master magician to visit Neville Grove on the Hogwarts Express.
Being a muggle, I can't work a weathering wand, so I use an airbrush and powders to get the desired effect for my customers. Regardless, this was a very enjoyable project as its a great model correctly based on the Hall Class in the Hornby Railroad Range.
Thanks to our daughter for playing her Harry Potter music box, and to Hamish and Molly for sending their Hornby Hogwarts Express train pack in for custom weathering.
