      Don’t bin them Dave, sell them on. If you get enough to buy a few more then that’s a win…..

            That's a great result, Tim - such a clean finish, as always!

            But you really need to add a reference shot with a bottle of VMC, to emphasise just how petite this is.

                Very kind Paul. It’s standing on a standard jam jar lid if that helps…..it’s about two inches by one inch in old money. I’ll take one with a vmc bottle in the completed shots.

                    Thanks Andrew. I fear it may be a bit fragile for gaming, but time will tell.

                              Sometimes yes, though not that often these days. They are certainly based up for that reason as basing makes them easier to handle. If I make display models of ground forces I stick to 1/35 and don’t base them.
