    Superb, very atmospheric! Goodrington was another childhood holiday destination - great memories of that place. Thanks for sharing :thumbup:

    Natural lighting makes all the difference. Steve what an amazing set of pictures capturing a time honoured scene with such spirit... not an element of "plasticness" in sight anywhere. I just showed these to SWMBO and her answer was ... wait for it.... "Ooh yes... you should do something like that in the garden" !!! Now do I need anymore green lights me thinks.:avatar: So the empowerment of your skills sets inspiration running high particularly since SWMBO wouldn't know the difference between a GW Castle loco and a Daimler Fleetline double decker bus.:tophat::tophat::tophat:Superb mate as always.

    Check out my painting guide on the Intentio web site. The jist of it is;
    Grey primer
    Then Gloss white ( £ shop )
    I use BR Bauxite for base red, you can use Halfords red oxide but I think the Railmatch bauxite is a nicer finish.
    Then the long drawn out process of picking out individual bricks in differing shades. The humbrol codes are on the Intentio web site.
    Then cream acrylic for the mortar courses.
    Paint as much of the individual bits as you can as it does make a difference.
    Weathering is mainly humbrol Matt 33 black dry brushed on.
    Phoenix precision engineers blue for above windows etc or depending on your chosen region. I’m sure I’ve posted a step by step guide in this thread.
    Post 658 for the painting guide
