stannyblade Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Does anybody have a set of instructions for the Airfix thatched cottage they could scan in for me please? I have won one on ebay but the instructions are missing. Thanks Gav Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stannyblade Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Right so how do I paint the thatched roof to make it look like its thatched? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumblestripe Posted June 23, 2014 Share Posted June 23, 2014 Unless it is newly thatched. Thatch is NOT yellow It's grey, a warm browny grey. Is there much texture to the moulded roof? If it isn't too heavy I'd give it a basecoat of a mid grey, let it dry thoroughly (overnight) then a wash with a thinned sepia ink, dry agin and a light drybrush with a lighter grey with a drop of silver added.

stannyblade Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Thanks Rumblestripe, Its not too textured no. I will aim to do colours similar to what you suggest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
