Looking good again. Great chips ... look effective, but some smaller chips interspread would also more realistic. The soldiers are wermacht and the hannomag is finished in DAK colours and insignia. Are these compatable??? Love the 232 as well. Does art instructer do this full time?

Thanks so much for all your kind compliments, Kevin, modelman92, Plasticbattle, csch
and Mech-Maniac. I really appreciate them!.

Plasticbattle, the soldiers and the Hanomag are not so compatible as you noticed.
'Art Instructor' models as a part time job only - same as Niphon. I wish I could offer
them much higher pay so that they'd be able to work full time for me.
