        Grey and dark yellow, mines vallejo sand yellow. I'll bang some tamiya dark yellow on and see how that looks, it's nagging me for grey again.

          go with the colour man! a darker yellow will be fine im sure, maybe add a good bit of oily weathering to keep yourself happy!

            Re sprayed tamiya desert yellow with water cross in white. I've got a lot of weathering to do on both cans and the pioneer tools etc. Cheers for the advice dougie.

                  OK so...I feel like a tool I've made a very novice mistake.


                  All was going well and I was up to pigment ing the tracks so I put the first dusty layer on them and thought I'll fix the pigments with drops of spirits and BOOM, the fricken tracks start falling apart.


                  I managed to kind of repair them, so embarrassing. I'll post pics in a few minutes. Amature hour at my bench

                      For the noob, what happened? Did the oil based spirits affect the glue?

                          One track was 8 pieces the other was 5 I quickly hit it with the hairdryer to stop it crumbling completely.

                            Oh dear, yeah I can somewhat understand this error, I had the spillage a while back of turps onto a P-51 model and it really makes a big mess of everything. Hope you can get the tracks fixed up Aaron.

                                Thanks guys, I was so gutted they took hours to get to look right and now they dont. I've put it on a base I made yesterday to try and hide the tracks but it's just embarrassing. Might post the completed build in the jokes section
