discussion Latest Acquisitions (2019)

[Guest]

Headmasters office at 8 30 in the morning!! To get there turn right at the Stug E, then past the 4 G's then left at the Stug A. Office is behind the skip full of green paint.

Hi headmaster is that the skip full of the famous 4BO green paint.

Pete Stug 1st year apprentice.

Bob lucky you on getting that version, is that a full house then ?

Oh yes, green it is! If the skip was in a field the apprentices would never find it!

Yes again thats the Stug fullhouse. But as with all german stuff theres always a different version

More paint. Came across the set in an online demo on track work. I've been looking for something like this for a while and so thought why not!

Whilst my LHS does some plastic kits their main focus is RC cars and planes (and not small ones at that). Nonetheless they do have some stuff that is useful for my humble builds such as this......about which all will be revealed in due course!

Do let us know how you find that paint to work with. I’ve tried LifeColor and just can’t get along with it — I find the paint is very thin and doesn’t cover at all, whether brushed or sprayed, but maybe you have more luck with it than I did.

Hi Jakko
In your quoted link, that is the set I stated that I found excellent to work with.......

Perhaps you just got a bad batch Jakko...It sometimes happens. Rick H.:unamused:

I kind of doubt it, as I bought a fair number of colours both for Luftwaffe WWII aircraft in Europe and North Africa, and for British tanks in the Western Desert, plus some others, and none worked well.

Hi Andrew the rust colours are very good and mix really well and you can get some nice effect's, I can only comment as a brush painter thought.

Thanks Pete. At this stage I only intend to use them with a brush!!

You could always cut the side out of the cardboard box the spray booth came in

After a lousy couple of weeks, I decided to reward myself - and I found one of my wish list at a VERY good discount ( a late delivery from postie )
Looked at other Doghouses, but the II appealed to me!
