Cheers buddy, I'm not convinced about the colour of the sand yellow Jerry can. It's the 3rd colour I've painted it.

 

[Guest]

What colour were they normally? I quite like the contrast with the green myself and it's well painted

 

[Guest]

Your paint work looks brilliant and it not even finished yet...... That's just annoying

 

[Guest]

Looks great Aaron

Grey and dark yellow, mines vallejo sand yellow. I'll bang some tamiya dark yellow on and see how that looks, it's nagging me for grey again.


Cheers Tommy and Tibbs.

go with the colour man! a darker yellow will be fine im sure, maybe add a good bit of oily weathering to keep yourself happy!

 

[aaron]

Re sprayed tamiya desert yellow with water cross in white. I've got a lot of weathering to do on both cans and the pioneer tools etc. Cheers for the advice dougie.

OK so...I feel like a tool I've made a very novice mistake.


All was going well and I was up to pigment ing the tracks so I put the first dusty layer on them and thought I'll fix the pigments with drops of spirits and BOOM, the fricken tracks start falling apart.


I managed to kind of repair them, so embarrassing. I'll post pics in a few minutes. Amature hour at my bench

 

[Guest]

Yep..... Your a tool

 

[Guest]

For the noob, what happened? Did the oil based spirits affect the glue?
