Beefy - that is a nuisance but it still looks epic.

I try to use masking if possible for pennant numbers nowadays but there's a limit to the size.

Possible to use some dilute paint and "fill-in", reverse process from Stuart painting his red Sub numbers?

 

And nice sea.  Are you using Gel or modelling paste?

Rob back to top of the page I am using the Vallejo gel for the main base stippled on using the bakers spatula and then using cotton wool soaked in the Vallejo clear water thinned out using a brush to shape the wave crest.

 

When I get round to planting Gorleston after this i will do a step by step to try and explain the method or at least try and explain it without putting people to sleep.  :sleeping:

 

HTH and Stay Safe I take it now you are part of the OAP brigade.  :clif:
