I don't agree - what can be more fun than painting your own? Simple really, 4 days of preparation without caffeine, tobacco and anything containing additives and colorants. Look no trembling in MY hands!

On the other hand, yes it IS a brilliant addition!

Sometimes -rarely- something on those news wakes me up a little bit and strikes me as being a truly valuable addition to a modeller's stash, and this set is one.

I really like flower pot and the thing for water that actually looks like it's being done out of transparent resin.
Now Mr Diopark, i would really like to see a set of *transparent* bottles like the one Verlinden put out a dozen years ago, except that it wasn't a transparent set.

I guess they were reading my mind. This is a great looking set and a must have for me. The idea and attempt of scratch building silverware has driven me into modelers dispair. I enjoy scratchbuilding but this saves me my sanity. Really cool idea with the decals, yes. I gave up on the porcelen bowl after several trys to paint it. Dinning outside the box, fine job Diopack.
