Primer on & wheels on sticks! This will now cure for a couple of days before the main colour. ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50925057322_2d3a424fe3_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50925057397_fc8c4aca45_c.jpg)

Thanks guys, today I worked on the tracks using VMS blackening solution which always works a treat. I did however have to paint every track pin as these are resin. Tedious but necessary so a metallic grey mix was carefully added to each one. With further weathering the tracks will look the business on the model later. ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50926112662_7bfd451695_c.jpg) ![](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50925296893_404b53cde8_c.jpg)

Pete they look fantastic mate. But why did you use resin track pins?

Resin pins are in the masterclub set mate so I used them rather than brass wire.
