Lee-H Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Can anyone suggest a shade of white for LNER coach roofs in 4mm scale, please? Ordinary white looks a bit too bright and clean so I would like something slightly dulled down. I might give it a very light coat of weathering too. I’m putting together a set of Coronation coaches that I’ve had for at least 20 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Bucoops Posted January 24 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 24 The original would have been white lead so slightly off-white. Which would very quickly have changed to light grey, to darker grey, to dark grey. Sorry, can't suggest a specific shade but a sooty light grey should work ok. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
34theletterbetweenB&D Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Tempting though it is to have them near white, for those working up and down the ECML the several tunnels in proximity to KX alone would rapidly lead to a sooty deposit. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
