'Fish Engine' LNER B5 iteration II

Description

I decided my 3D printed original model wasn't up to scratch, so scrapped it and started over in more conventional materials and techniques.  The firebox and boiler backplate were hacked out of a Hornby Patriot, whilst the chassis re-used the Hornby B12 and Black 5 parts from the original model (the tender and boiler fittings were also re-used from the original model).  Everything else is plastic strip or sheet of some form or another whilst the boiler is plastic sheet heat-formed around a brass tube (the process for this is easy- wrap the plastic around the tube, hold it in place with rubber bands and then immerse it in boiling water for a minute or so before dousing it in cold running water).

Is this a fictitious design of yours? It looks very handsome.
