And you have got to admit, they look a WHOLE LOT better and more realistic...A bit of dirt and grime (pastels perhaps or Mig pigments) and you really will be pleased with yourself and the end product.

Well done you, a job worth doing and thanks for sharing, the proof of the pudding is always in the eating or in this case, the sharing!

Nice job on them Friuls are nice.

Ever tried Modelkasten?
A little cheaper but more work.
