Windscreen painting

For those interest in how I paint the windscreens, etc, it's quite simple

Basic painting finished


Windows blocked in with a very dark grey. I use the same colour for tyres. This is where neatness is important.


Next I add a broad area of blue covering most of the area but not up to the edges


Finally I dry-bush on a few lines of light blue, making sure the direction is consistent. If it turns out too neat I try and smudge it.
