Not much work over the last few days after a pleasant trip to Newcastle and a night away in Sydney. Have returned to the workbench tonight for more on this kit. Following on from the info in the Braillescale blog I am painting the cabin now as well as the wheels. The cabin floor is wood so have used an old bottle of Humbrol Acrylic Matt Wood 110, first coat natural, next a wash from the wood mixed with Citadel black. Last coat will be a drybrush of wood mixed with Citadel white. I do love how the Citadel paints will mix with most other acrylics regardless of brand.
The wheels etc will be painted in Humbrol Matt 174 red that was given to me to help with this project, thanks again for that one!
Will be glad to stop house type projects over the festering season.
