In English rooves. Roofs is a modern import I do believe.
Interesting link.
The Oxford English Dictionary only recognises "roofs" as the plural.

Markings are a mix of Modelmaster and Fox.

Agreed - too modest. The different coloring effects on the planks is very effective I'd love to be able to achieve something like that.Too modest, Matt
As they say time is money so anything that saves time is a cost saving - I've just bought some of these washes to experiment with but then again it was partly due to the local model shop having a 20% discount on everything so they weren't that expensive.It's all a myth however, they're no better than regular oil or enamel paint washes and they're certainly more expensive. I simply use them because my time to do any meaningful modelling these days is limited, and any time I can save is worthwhile.
I've finally managed to apply the white strips to the ends of the Shock wagon. I used the stripes provided in the Modelmaster set, but have cut them into thinner strips.
They've conformed to the corrugations nicely with a bit of decal solution.

The outer stripes have been weathered and chipped in the photo above, compare with the freshly applied centre stripe.
