Pleased to share my latest finished painting. Romney Hythe & Dymchurch Railway No9 Winston Churchill sits on Hythe turntable. Just how I remember it in all my years spent down there as a lad.

Nearly finished! A few details still to add before the final finishing touches. Takes me right back to being a kid stood round the turntable at Hythe, watching engines come and go.

The World Cup is a bit of a distraction for me at the moment, but I managed to make a bit of progress in between games this evening! 🎨✍️🚂

Well done to those who correctly guessed my next piece. Usually I rush into the loco as it’s the most enjoyable bit…..but I have convinced myself to slow down and work on the background first.

This will eventually become Romney Hythe & Dymchurch Railway No9 ‘Winston Churchill’ in its older, slightly darker crimson livery from the mid 2000s. Just how I remember it growing up.

It’s always satisfying starting a new project! 🙌

Guessing game (hard edition) - anyone think they know what this might be? 🚂

Memories of a fantastic weekend at Swanage in 2015 when Sherwood Forester came to visit. Loved painting this! ✍️🎨☀️🍻

Thanks to my very patient wife for taking the photo 😂
