Converting Harvey into a DMU

Humbrol acrylic or enamel is very hard wearing and will stick well if the surface is cleaned first.

My paint brand of choice is Tamiya Acryllic (assuming you've got an airbrush). If you're airbrushing you really should use a primer such as the one I recommended above, not just for the adhesion, but also because the pale colour means you only have to lay on a thin layer of the final colour to get the finish you want.

I can't post any pics of any trains I've sprayed because I haven't done any yet, but I do have a strong background in other fields of scale modelling so I'll use this as an excuse to show off something else. At least there's a Japanese theme going on.
