Pascal,

Your work is truly amazing! Your "Buffalo" builds have inspired me to register for Armorama and to pick my hobby back up. You had mentioned a cd with many detail pics that you purchased from another member. If it is still available I would love to pick up a copy. I will look up the member and try to contact him.
I just received my kit and am looking forward to getting started. Thank you so much for taking the time to take pictures of your builds, because I know it can slow the process down a bit. Keep up the great work.

Thanks much! I just contacted him and purchased his Buffalo pics. I am looking forward to getting started. Finding time is the tough part.
Do you have any videos of your weathering techniques? They are stellar!

Thanks!! Sorry,I don't make vids only pics. My techniques are inspired from the one depicted in magazines or tutorial from well known modellers that can be seen everywhere.
