8mm, won't really make a lot of difference - at this scale bright is ok. They are cocktail sticks cut down.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

From experience, anything that fires black powder will get very dirty very quickly., so it will depend if you want a parade ground or battlefield look.

16 carriages assembled and based. Need to see how the gold paint on cocktail stick came out.  If that's OK, will paint more cocktail sticks, then cut to size and glue on tomorrow afternoon when I get home/Saturday,  and hopefully .

Also need to paint the wheel rims on the bits the green has gone over. The burnt edge from the laser cut looks good.

Research shows the cocktail sticks need to be cut to approx 8mm each. Happy days...
