The decals are now in place, the matt varnish is next and then final assembly and painting are just left to be done.

The matt varnish is on and dry, the weathering is nearly done and the end is in sight. I am now painting the base of the stand to match the colour of the shelf it will sit on.

That looks great.

I'll need to have a bash at making my own stands sometime.
