Hi, I have started the metal work on the back gallery, but have decided to paint it all together. I have kept each set from their respective issues together my masking them to a card and putting the issue number on. It has taken longer than expected cleaning the castings up, so progress has been slow. I intend to do all of them first, spray them gold and hopefully the colour will be constant throughout.  This is not all of the parts I have sprayed, a couple of cards are not in the photo. Regards claret Also working on:
