… and other updates … I've had one of these Corgi die-cast Apache models for ages but the desert paint scheme it came in never looked right. I repainted it the other day and I think it has come out well …

It came out very well! Nice job. What type of paints did you use? |

The primer/undercoat was straightforward Humbrol Matt black enamel, the finish was dry-brushed Vallejo acrylic … The only 'special effect' is that the 'metal' is Humbrol's metalcoat gunmetal drybrushed with Vallejo acrylic silver … I think this gives quite a good burnished effect (actually it is how I do armour on medieval soldiers) and looks quite good here perhaps  Phil |

Very tempting, Jarrovian … thanks … at present I have a number of left over Airfix bridge pontoons which are pretty much the same beam as Bulstrode … but … Phil |
