Months ago I went to the West Coaster Toy Soldier Show and got one of these guard houses.
I got my first one there several years ago, shown here with a 60mm Marx recast figure.
I soaked them in Simple Green to remove the paint.
Then I sprayed them with $1 white spray paint from Wal-Mart.
It took a couple coats to get the coverage I wanted.
Better two thin coats than one thick one.
Then I painted the guard shacks with Rust-oleum.
Deep Forest Green is pretty close to Olive Drab.
They came out okay I think.
