  1. So, I build a kit where the sprues are grey, and then prime the kit, in sprue grey, and then paint it in sprue grey. I must be missing something here.

      I was told by a professional painter long ago to always use a different color primer and/or undercoat to the top finish - it is the only way you can be sure you have a complete and even coverage with your top coat(s). The trick is to find something different enough, but not detrimental to the colour you want. Sometimes it even helps coverage, like using white undercoat with yellow topcoat.

  2. My best man (veteran of the Gulf war, Northern Ireland, Bosnia twice) passed out with the TA this week and wasn't allowed to wear his medals. Discraceful- we earned those.

      Agree, utterly disgraceful. Whose decision was it - his CO's, or higher authority? Can't see anything in the AGAI that prevents it.
