Simond Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 Nah, just use grey then white then yellow, and you'll need 7/4 as much paint that's all You'll need 49/16 times as much paint.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leopardml2341 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 (edited) You'll need 49/16 times as much paint.... As an estimate, cos you can't be certain the amount of yellow needed will be directly pro-rata to give the same perceived depth of colour over the larger area, so there! Ok, you win!

RMweb Gold PjKing1 Posted January 29, 2017 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 29, 2017 Well I only ordered these on Thursday and they arrived yesterday Two inspection pits from KS Laser Designs, great service, each kit will either make two small or one large pit. Using the original track plan though I've been working out the lengths of the three pits. A. The Ash pit 85' - 595mm 23.4" B. The Pit 120' - 840mm 33" C. The fuelling shed 145' - 980mm 38.5" If anyone knows better though please let me know. One kit will make the Ash pit but I'll have to order another three to complete the other two pits.
