You can still repaint your bathroom; you can even repaint mine! I hate painting them.

I think we are running short of topics especially concerning model trains.
However We do seem to be having fun. :D

Started block-painting today. What color are train-orders?

Image

I'm using Tamiya flat acrylics. After painting his suspenders, shoes and orders, and a bit of touch-up, I think I'll hit him with an overspray of Testors clear gloss before I dip him. I saw some slight curdling in the acrylic last time,,,want to avoid that. Otherwise he goes in the tank and we start over.

Is it my imagination or does this dude look cross-eyed? Hope he doesn't get hit by the train...

Train orders, back in the day usually yellow or green.

Really!
