I should have also mentioned the advice I was given. Once painted the contrast paint isn't as hardwearing as their others so the advice was to give a spray with matt varnish.

The drybrushing is aparrently required to give some texture for the contrast paint to stick to because the leadbelcher spray is too glossy.
