Andy's Long Dock

[MSea]

That's EVERY brick painted - next the ironwork and then 50 shades of grey for the stone blocks - then washes to tone it down and tie it all together

What patience Martin!

[MSea]

NO Chris just good old bloody mindedness

[MSea]

All the stone blocks picked out in assorted shades of grey from very dark to light and some blue ones as well.  Looked a mess untill 3 coats of very thinned down medium grey painted over them to tone down and bring them together.

[chriswil42]

Looks good.

Looking good, no what about the mortar between the bricks and stones?
(Ha, Ha - got you!)

This is coming together nicely. I like the tip re grey washes as I've a building to work on and it's not our cottage!!!!

First - Francis wins the prize - for spotting that some fool has put the last couple of photos of this model in the Grafskaya string  :'( :'( :'(
So the wooden rubbing posts are now painted and dry brushed and fitted to the model.  Before somebody tells me there should be a green line at the waterline of the dock and posts - they will be added when all bits are fitted and the line will be one line not several different levels if I did them before assembly

Sheep use rubbing posts but won't they drown here?

[MSea]

Its for "sea sheep" - hohohho

[zak]

"Baa" humbug and that's from Beernadet or her friend Baartholomu
