Carl..the latest July/August issue of The New Conrod page 26 shows the tank paint and transfer layout plus how to set up the engine..I had mine painted TS tank colours ( plenty of previous advice from Chris re these)  and looked extremely nice..Pic on forum from several years ago..Transfer from LDMCC ...

Does anyone have a copy of the New Conrod article on the tank paint and transfer layout for the B29 that they could post, I am getting ready to paint my tank and sure could use this information.

Go to members gallery and search for B29. I used an experienced painter and his professional sense of layout re curves etc and worked nicely.  Please make sure that the Blue is a dark blue as I have seen vintage  Duggies with a light blue and in my personal opinion looks all wrong.
