1/72 25 pdr spent casings
Posted by gunner_chris on Wednesday, November 30, 2011 7:44 AM

I hope to hit up the LHS and Michael's on Thursday or Friday, so I'm looking for some advice.

First I'm looking for the most suitable size styrene tube to make empty 25 pdr casings.  Since making the lip for the ejector is almost pointless in 1/72, I'll probably just fill in one side.  Just looking to make some spent casings.

Next question is what would be the best recommendation for paint color for these casings from Michael's, either ready to paint or a good mix. Settled for walmarts small selection and ended up with a gold which looks like garbage. It was the closest they had to a brass.

Thanks
