Yeah, we have possums back in Canada. n fact, my Dad has one he feeds on his porch with the cats, kinda funny when you pull in his drive a see all his cats dart away and this possum just sort of ambles over to the bushes! Anyway, the snowberry thread, she has her hull painted now with Western approaches theme, this is where the tamiya tape comes in very handy. when I went to take a picture of the starboard side, I realized I had not connected the dots right and had abit more painting to do, luckily my mix was still useable.

First just spray the antifoul red paint, cheapy stuff from auto shop £3 a can, then marked out waterline masked up and sprayed the white with a light dusting of grey, its suppose to be 50/50 mix. And last, sort of eyeballed the Western approaches camoflage and mixed the 2 different colours. Quite pleased with it. The tamiya tape works a treat, a little bled but thats due to the plated surface of the hull, but after abit of weathering and varnish and 50 feet from shore no one will know the bad bits... ;D
