Wireless Set No. 52 Canadian - Project

[David Dunlop]

Another stinky hot day today so I got all the errands/chores done early and retired to the basement to paint the two Spare Parts Cases. Both are now done save for any small touch ups after they have hard cured for a couple of weeks.

The green case, I will be adding to the 52-Set kit is the one in the foreground and the grey one is behind it.

The more I work with this Flat Olive Green colour that Canadian Marconi used on the 52-Set, the more it fascinates me. Note how, strictly on the way available light strikes the paint, the rear case looks olive green but the front one looks more like No. 2 Brown and out in the daylight this colour almost self-camouflages.

Once the hard cure is reached, I will be adding the stencil IDs to both cases.
