You going to tell us what brand/colour paint you used, or is this a trade secret? : )

Hi Rob. No secret really. It's a mixture of Humbrol enamels which I usually work with. Bit of grey, bit of white, bit of brown and thinners and airbrushed (with a Badger airbrush) on. I don't tend to measure the amounts and do it by eye which is why you get a slightly different finish each time. Sorry, it's not anything more complicated than that and I would love to make out I sit here measuring carefully each tank to get it spot on, but I really don't. As I say I wasn't really looking for an exact copy of a camo scheme, more my interpretation. I guess some of us just have a gift as they say !!! LOL LOL ;D ;D ;D ;D The wife can always tell what type of camo I am doing as I come from the workshop with a thin film of it all over me. I suppose I should be greatful that she takes enough of an interest to be able to tell them apart now!!  ;)

Yep thats right, but so long as I bung her the odd present, she's ok. I pretty much get to do what I want provided the odd gift and occasional holiday are provided ! Seems fair to me. Dave;D ;D
