I bought three of three very nice Dropzone Commander drills. link I want to paint these in an interesting fashion. I think they should have a paint scheme more like a piece of period construction or other heavy equipment not a military one. Any color anyone particularly likes? If it was today I'd probably paint them up in yellow |

Well, you could look up the liveries of the old British railroads. I'm sure the Great Western--Brunswick green with orange and black trim--could have used a tunneler, and the Caledonian Railway--dark maroon and white--even more so. 120 British railroads prior to 1921. Knock yourself out. |
