MDFord Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 I acquired some Britains drivers recently and have given them new outfits. Also I now have a grey Herald driver/rider to go with my two blue ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted October 30, 2011 Author Share Posted October 30, 2011 This one was all over orange plastic when I got him at Toytrac, and his head is a bit chewed I decided to give him a makeover as well. Does anyone know what make he is as I haven't seen one like this before ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 Tidy work that Mark. Very effective colour schemes too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 Thank You Andy - very fiddly work, but it certainly transforms these figures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 31, 2011 Share Posted October 31, 2011 very nice mark, what paint did you use?? when i tried to re do one of my figures with humbrol model paint it just ran?? would not take properly, took 4 coats in the end, which spoilt the finish so i took it all off again with a dip in some white spirit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 Can't say I'm a fan of Humbrol paint Sean, always seems a bit "thin" to me. Revell is what I use, their acrylic (square plastic pot) is pretty good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDFord Posted October 31, 2011 Author Share Posted October 31, 2011 Thanks Jamie, I reckon your best bet is to rummage around at a toyfair, or keep a look out on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
