Painting 'Oleo' Buffer Shanks

[Crepello]

I've found the Pilot silver paint pen from Paperchase is a good alternative to brush-painting.  It's quicker with no cleaning up afterwards and can assist where the shanks are short, as with N gauge locos and wagons.

If you're doing the buffer bodies in primer, then NATO Cockpit Green is the colour you need.

Also, the Molotow 1mm silver pen is useful for buffer shanks.
