Going light!

After yesterdays going dark session in which the Trumpeter Grille30 30.5cm(Grw) L/15 Mörser "Bär" was undercoated in black today, despite the weather going dark with the arrival of Storm Jocelyn (If they ever get to use the letter M it will have to be storm Mrs. Woody, but then again I have experienced many of those when I have done something wrong so I know what will be arriving!), the vehicle has gone light with ironically enough a coat of Dark Yellow! However what I had not known when selecting the paints from the WMD Store was that the Dark Yellow bottle was nearly empty as was the supposed full spare! Luckily I had a bottle of Desert Yellow which I used as a base to the Dark Yellow. It might all sound a bit strange (like me!) but it worked.

All the wheels and the hubs were also painted at the same time.

With the wheels painted I took the opportunity to paint the tyres which I believe are a steel tyre rather then a rubber tyre. Whatever they are they got painted with Vallejo Grey and look like the kit box art!

Next stage is to get some green and brown on the body which should be interesting!
