Some rare back to back dry and sunny weeks at the start of April saw another push forward with the station building for Church Lane. Even rarer, with no noisy neighbours blasting out music like the front row at Glastonbury, I was able to do all the painting whilst sat out in the garden!
Models always photograph far better in natural light. The highly out of focus background also makes a nice setting and gives a better idea of how it'll look against a potential back-scene.
At the moment this is just the base colours (I'm also just noticing I missed the bargeboard on the lean to!) a further drybrushing of weathering will be added later. Of note though is the Revell brown colour - This particular shade only comes in a silk matt finish. In another moment of 'firsts' this year I had a go at using a matt varnish, nothing special, just a basic rattle can. But it is nice to be taking tiny steps towards other things.
