Thanks guys, Steve I have to admit the buttons are tough to do sometimes I can get them right first time other times it will take many attempts and a lot of re-paints there is a trick to make buttons easier,I have used in the past , get a pin dab in some super glue, gel super glue works better, then dab were you want buttons , once dry paint over with the uniform colour , then paint the raised dots of glue with the chosen button colour, this is a lot easier as you only have to paint the raised bumps. I don't do this anymore as I'm to impatient so I just dab with a very worn fine brush ! Tim, noooooooooooooo not therapy again
