It's a ruddy can of worms is what it is!

Sinai grey is a pig, it's hard to get right and really really varies depending on the light. I use a mix of (Tamiya paints)

33% XF-57
Buff
+
33% XF-59
Desert Yellow
+
33% XF-20
Medium Grey

Usually a little extra medium grey to taste.

Damn Tom those look FANTASTIC!

Tom they are up there with the best I've ever seen. What a standard for me to aspire to.

It is a hazard of asking Mr Hugill for advice !............... his stuff is so good you just think 'why should I bother '!!!!!!!
