Are those metal shells?
Figures are definitely on the right track, I’d say.

Thank you very much gentlemen, much appreciated... and the shells are plastic, these are the sets that come with the kit, there are also loose shells, but I don't think they would really be laying around on/in the turret.. might do it after all, just for the fun of it  and because they look nice.. |

Thanks Paul, I love it too, good thing I bought the 200 ml bottle  
Sometimes I use it as a primer (like on the M51), sometimes as main color (like most of the wheeled vehicles), and then usually a light spray of a different color on top of it to get some color differences for each model. |

I have the same colour in a small bottle, just never used yet. I think that may change soon  |
