    Yes, plus some figures! I hope this works Alan...I'm taking an awful risk.

    I shall use the Tigers for something else.

      Why wouldn't it work , the III will look much better and more authentic I don't see any problems

        I either do figures okay...or more often than not they look like a melon up the bum...I suppose in 1/72 doesn't really mind though as it is more highlights.

          1/72 will look good as unless your five inches from them the detail isn't going to show and I think if you over compensate on the detail so you can see it it looks out of scale

            Top work on those columns Si. Really nice effect.

            If you're at all worried about the finished figures ( I don't see why mind) do what I do....Paint them, then sprinkle them lightly with polyfilla powder and blow off the excess.....instand Greek dust!! This method hides a multitude of sins - certainly in my case!

                  I have some winter troops and an old hannomag my son didn't finish so I figured doing an eastern front dio with the hannomag as a burnt out reck from a long old battle
