PAINTING THE GALLERY BRASS ETCH

Hi Everyone, at the last post of my build diary I applied the first coat of yellow ochre to the already primed surfaces. Now at this stage I am making sure the brass etch fits the contours of the sides and rear gallery, by gently bending the etch to fit (for a second time), and the good news is it has note cracked the paintBigGrin
