Was confused about the standards of G1 so consulted this forum. Have decided not to go down this track as it is at the same place that 00 is i.e. a right mess. so will stick with my 5" for a bit longer you can get just as wet and cold anyway

Here Tom. 

 

The only modifications to the technique I made was to use Pledge with klear as I could find Humbrol Clear for love nor money and Railmatch Roof Dirt & Frame Dirt (10:1 ratio in favour of roof dirt) instead of the black washes. 

Klear is no longer on the market.  PLEDGE  MULTI-URFACE WAX".is the same thing.sainsburys sell  it £3.50   for a lifetimes supply

I have watched your progress with interest,mainly as I am picking ideas .However I read with interest that you like me resort to computer printing.I have found out the hard way, always give anything you print a coat of matt varnish one quick brush over and leave to dry.otherwise the slightest moisture and everything runs green.Its amazing where the moisture comes from a drop of sweat in summer moist hands etc.
