Thanks chaps, I was a bit concerned that yet another unit of auxiliaries might be a thought a bit ho-hum, I'm glad you like them!

I love these, beautifully executed. It makes me cry when I see mine comapred to these, although to be fair I did paint mine when I was 13!

Which means I need to paint up my GB purchases some yeasr back still in lead pile status awaiting undercoat....any hints of whcih colour undercoat to use Simon?

Great blog by the way!

Hi D.O., I vary the undercoat according to what I'm painting. For chain, I usually go with black, because I don't want any "windows". White or grey work very well as undercoat colours. A tip I picked up off Simon MacDowall, is to wash the white or grey with a very thin coat of burnt umber, which brings out the detail, prior to putting the base coat on.

Cheers, Simon
