Ian, appreciated ole chap ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Pete, many thanks to thee too fella ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Steve, cheers mushty ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) . Painting separately is the only way to go IMHO. Those darned interleaving wheels are impossible to get at otherwise ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . Well she's been primed ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) , more on that later when I fetch it from the cellar

Well chaps as you can see the primer isn't Dunkelgelb ![O_o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/browraise.png) , I must admit I felt a tad let down when I started spraying ![:-S](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wavey.png) . Never mind, I give this a coat of Mission Models Dunkelgelb and see that goes ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) . ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/46916494265_acc7786f99_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/32888880247_c9d6728376_c.jpg) More tomorrow, hopefully ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

This new stuff from Vallejo. ![](https://i.ibb.co/D9s7Fnb/DSCN2149.jpg) ![](https://i.ibb.co/wrfXHL0/RSCN2151.jpg) It's certainly a good primer, the panzer grey which I used on the Faun was perfect. This one has an odd colour tone to it.

It's got a bit of a green tinge to it? Good coverage from the primer though ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

Pete, Boots, the primer is agood one for sure, just the colour is odd ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . Anyway, we're back in the game now ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) . Here's Mission Models Dunkelgelb sprayed without thinning ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) . ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47058981654_d8fc4ec6b0_c.jpg) I must say these paints are blurdy good ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png) , no messing about with a drying nozzle, no thinning (although they could be a tad thinner) and the AB cleans up with cheap Aldi glass cleaner ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) . I shall defo be getting some more of these MM paints ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

That's a very nice colour mate, what pressure did you spray at?

About 30psi with a 0.5mm nozzle, the AB is a cheapo Fengda ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

Here the beginning of the camo fun ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) , I have chosen Tamiya XF61 for the start. It could be possible that there should be redbrown on there too, not sure about that yet. ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/40904316243_3470464953_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/40904317473_9803b020f4_c.jpg)

Boots, Pete, Ian, cheers fellas ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) . I added some sponged on red-brown the other day, but I reckon that ain't enough. Gonna go back over that to more volume in there. I also added some stickers from Archer, rusted the exhaust, and gotten the horrible DS tracks in place ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) . ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47892075551_ab5571153b_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/47892079421_e0b6f04961_c.jpg) Just waiting for one main decal to arrive now, then I can finish this one off ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) .
