[Painting coach panels]

Hello Mikkel,

 

I have received some Vallejo Air colours for Christmas and I'm going to try to match the standard GWR colours using those, I generally spray paint most models but have used your panel flooding technique where a full pannelled livery is needed. However I find that I use enamels so little that they usually go hard in the pot before I use most of it. Also the solvents aren't too pleaseant when spraying so I was keen to give the Vallejo acrylics a try.

 

I'll try to post on RMWeb somewhere if I manage to get a reasonable matches from mixes from the basic colours set.

I know it's been a long time in the making but my 00 chassis is coming close to completion. Space saver boxes did fit even in 00 with the gearbox between. I couldn't fit the vacuum pump on mine but it's barely visible between the narower frames. My issue now that underhung springs are back on is how the devil do I fit the pickups!

Very interesting thread and very useful as I'm about to start on one of the high Level 57xx chassis and wanted to try CSB. Mine will be 00 so any idea what is and is not likely to fit in. I'm guessing the inside motion will probably not fit with csb as well.
