British Rail colours for the Bedford truck.  BR Crimson and BR Cream oddly known as 'blood and custard'  Not sprayed enamels for a while so could be fun......

As long as you thin them correctly after thorough mixing you will have no problems, I have never had trouble with them and don't know of anyone who has.

Just got these.


Can't be bothered taking pics of the real things...


The eduard G-6 is retooled and is definitely the best G-6 in the scale and probably the best me 109 to date

 

[Guest]

[Guest]

[Guest]

Hi!


I have the same airbrush......and I'm glad with it! works really fine

 

[Guest]

Once more my favourite dealer comes up with my fix.......  Great fast service as usual from John at Scale Model Shop.


Some essential supplies, these trucks get through loads of masking tape  :$  and yes, a couple of tins of Humbrol enamel!  What is the world coming to?  A .3mm needle set for the airbrush and, yes.... I have bought some Vallejo paint..... Just trying out the idea of the new generation acrylic metallics as I need to do chrome and an alternative to Alclad is required but it will have to be good to beat Alclad chrome which may be smelly but is beautiful scale chrome when you get it right.


Oh, and a truck.... This is a big deep box and it is full of plastic.  Expect to be bored with it some time soon.....

they do look to be done nicely,if i may ask have they got the laying lines,or a smooth finish ?


as I got some stuff done,but you can see the lines,or say layers,

 

[monica]

There not smooth Monica they have a little detail on them, but it doesn't look like layer lines. But at this size it's hard to tell.

ta for the info,Ian,just always do look into that side of a 3d print,as you say that small,it dose not matter real,as on a bigger scale,i find that it dose,


and if there is away o smoothing them out,
