POLA 1763: Village Well<\/p><\/div>\n

I purchased this kit from Ultimate Trains Ltd. It is about 9″ long, 5.25″ wide and 5.5″ tall. Although small, it is expensive because it includes an electric pump.<\/p>\n

This was one of the first kits I assembled and painted, and I still like the overall look. \u00a0I painted the following items with the water-based acrylic paint indicated:<\/p>\n

Fountain basin: Folk Art, Green Forest 448
\nFountain basin trim: Folk Art, Metallic Pure Gold 660<\/p>\n

Fountain pump body: Folk Art, Green Forest 448
\nFountain pump lever: Folk Art, Wrought Iron 925
\nFountain pump trim: Folk Art, Napthol Crimson 435
\nFountain pump trim, bands: Folk Art, Metallic Pure Gold 660<\/p>\n

Fountain stone base, basic color, mix of:
\nFolk Art, Medium Gray 425
\nFolk Art, Dark Gray 426
\nFolk Art, Licorice 938<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Fountain stone base, highlights, each of:
\nFolk Art, Rose Pink 632
\nFolk Art, Silver Anniversary 506
\nFolk Art, Sky Blue 465
\nFolk Art, Hauser Green Light 459<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Fountain stone base, rust spots: Delta Creamcoat, Metallic Red Copper 02605<\/p>\n

Fountain stone base, lime\/mortar: Folk Art, Dove Gray 708<\/p>\n

Fountain stone base, shadow\/stain: Folk Art, Wrought Iron 925<\/p>\n

Quite a while after finishing this kit, I painted the LGB 5038 Advertising Pillar using a mix of 3 parts FA Green Forest 448 to 1 part FA Dark Gray 426. \u00a0That mix came out really nice and if I ever decide to repaint this fountain, I will use that mix for the basin and pump.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
