Okay, so my workshop looks a bit different than most. I have no airbrush, no lathe and very limited painting space. So I took the Prop house approach, quick and dirty, easy to acquire but durable products. So, with such small amount of orange I didn’t want to buy a whole rattle can. I instead...

Alright, this one put up a good fight Trimming the rubber inserts and putting this back together was no problem. I went ahead and studied some of the screen caps and exhibits where these are seen and noted this tool is definitely set cockeyed so it fit inside the pocket, check. Now, the split...

Getting the Apoxie Sculpt out today. I found out Jessops is a photography equipment retailer, and has been around since the 1930s whenit started i Leicester. So maybe this is just another, identical, brand of this squeegee. Jessops - Wikipedia

nice side-arm! That trick of painting black beneath silver is a good one, I'd only heard of it last year. Looks sick!

Nice job! I'm seconding the compliments on the weathering jobs. A lot of good tips for detail work here
