Andrew P Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Hi Ian, Yes another great Video. Re your health, we now have a Blood pressure monitor and I do mine and record it every morning about half an hour after getting up, incase of any blips. My wife was also able to take a reading and give it to the Ambulance Service when I had my Heart Attack so they knew how I was before they arrived. All the best, stay safe and keep well and CALM. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew P Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) That looks very good Ian. Many years ago I did an article for Railway Modeller about weathering Steel Bodied Wagons, and here are some pics of the Limpet I did, I used a Craft knife to make small cuts along the top that looked like dents from the Grabber once weathered.

RMweb Premium Hal Nail Posted October 26, 2020 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Gents, If you will indulge a small hijack, my stock rust colours always end up looking slightly too purple and not orange enough although i'm trying to avoid too bright, as rust tones down quickly. I appreciate it's a balance and probably trial and error with different blends but what basic colours do you use?
