    Hi Dr Quinn,

    Been directed to you from the overseas modelling thread. I'm building an HO scale Danish MH shunter, and I'm pondering on what shade of red paint to use (it's later red and black livery). Thinking of tamiya xf-7 red which looks a little light. I could darken that but would be interested in knowing what you recommend as you've built an MZ diesel. Thanks!

      Hi Bill, 

       

      I used VW Mars red from a rattle can over oxide red primer on the MZ. It gives a nice depth to the colour. I used Tamiya gloss red on      my own MH, the shade seemed ok but lacking in depth. Let me know how you get on

       

      Cheers

       

      Nick
