Out with the paint brush, in preparation for a nice big RNZAF roundel to go on the door!
Test fit of the Roundel before painting
A little paint makes a difference
Only one rough coat over everything, a couple more to go. Then I’ll need to install a kick panel at the bottom of the door, and paint the handle and lock black. Final touch will be skirting board, and a capping around the corner to the stairs.
After consultation with my interior design guru (thanks Avalon!) I now have a colour scheme for the man cave! The wall in the photos is Resene “Waiouru”, which will extend to the back of the Skyhawk sim. The cabinets in the room will be painted gray; Dulux “Innocence” (which is the gray used for the interior surfaces of the Skyhawk sim….) with the opposite wall being painted some sort of “warm neutral” colour (possibly the same as in our house).
Around the skyhawk sim will be a dark neutral colour, probably the same gray as the cabinets, and finally a mural on the wall beside the cockpit, as a background for taking selfies 😉
