Sorry Peter, using your build thread as a reference for mine-hope you don't mind? On this pic I have to somehow get all my wiring in place...could be tricky.


Ta again mate, helps to see this before I start fastening mine together.

Hope mine comes out looking like this. I was miffed when I started looking at the window sections and found the roof windows are not coloured...it would mean a tint spray for two chuffing windows! Will have to see if I can come up with something.

Si: Humbrol and Tamiya do clear green in pots, same cost as a tin of regular enamel paint. Otherwise I've heard of others using food colouring in floor wax/varnish, and also the use of green highlighter pens. I've only used the Humbrol clear green of these options, two coats dried evenly and without fuss.
