Album: Modeling IAIS 700s

Conductor's side of IAIS 719. I know it's considered unprototypical for a model to shine, but the glossy finish that's still evident on the 700s 18 months after the first units were delivered is such a trademark feature that I decided to bend the rules a bit. I left the vertical surfaces in the glossy finish of the Scalecoat 2 black, and dull-coated the horizontal surfaces, since those would likely be the first areas where grime would collect.
