Feeling painty

Post by canaletto5 »

Well, the weather has picked up and I need to finish the GS750C tank.As I've got the week off I thought I may as well do a couple more at the same time.

I acquired a set of 380B decals a bit back so this one will be finished in Stardust Silver. Just treating the inside with trusty Caswell first. Does a great job.

This one is a little GT250B tank some-one I know has asked me to paint for him.

Few dints to sort out

This one will be gold, the same colour as my GT550.

Beats working :D

You can practise on my T500 tank and side panel as soon as I save up enough beer tokens ;)

They say practice makes perfect Paul :)

My last spray tent got blown to bits in February by storm Doris

So, I've set the replacement up in a more sheltered location, handy for the new shed so power no problem.
