Ammo Dump nearing completion-Update

I can't find my original post with pics of this but here it is again.









I have been down to B&Q today and got some polycell which is now drying on this. I caused a problem for myself I can't get to the outer wall behind the door frame but hopefully it won't matter apart from being a different shade when painted. I also removed much of the sellotape and glued down areas.

I want to paint this gray I know Games Workshop used to sell a spray called Fortress Gray but not sure if it's still in circulation,can anyone help me there?

Found it! It was in the Customs> GI Joe section. I have now moved it to Customs> FAQs, WIPs and Tips

Thanks Baron. Do you know where I can get an ideal gray paint in a spray can?

Thanks Scoob I have been painting it by hand with Games Workshop's Shadow Grey.

Those spray paints, available from B+Q, will be ideal and will work out cheaper than GW paints.

However here's a tip for everyone - buy the £1 tester paints from B+Q - the best section is the outdoor masonary paints. They are emulsion and I use them for all my scenery. You can mix them, dry brush them, apply a wash. Other things to look out for are the tester mix paints people have asked to be mixed up, but never picked up. They sell for 10p each for a big tub.

They are NOT ideal for figures. The Pit was painted using paints that cost no more then 50P on total, and I still have tons left.

Here is the base so far The floor and the walls inside need doing.

Due to Games workshop discontinuing the grey I used I had to re-think the colour scheme so painted the floor a lighter grey and undercoated the walls and ceiling white which makes the base brighter. I'm not sure about using a third shade of grey or some other colour any suggestions will be helpful.
