I managed a bit of time today to carry out the test colouring of the end wall of the sand furnace. For a colour guide I chose to use some of my own colour slides from October 1965. These were taken using Agfa film which was always a little on the blue side so I have corrected this using Photoshop.

I have used an assortment of Berol Karisma crayons of various brick shades, some for the engineering brick and others for the more common 'red'. Having fixed the corbels I realised the crayon method would not work on them because the spacing is too small. Here I resorted to mixing some Bager Opaque paint of grey and black persuasion and applied it using a fine brush.

The result is pleasing.
