Europe 1945 are rather nicely molded, the females actually have full legs, and thinly molded skirts, so you don't have that dreaded flat spot on the bottom of the skirts. Insignia are decals.

I don't have the second set, so can't comment on those.

I could swear someone posted pics of a completed set of these figures on one of the boards here in the last few days.

Those are truley amazing figures - I can't believe the detail - to paint the medal ribbons so neatly, get the skin tones so fine, oh I could go on.

One of those sets of models that just makes my jaw hit the floor.

World class stuff.

I really like the job he did on the print dresses. Not exactly easy to get them to all look the same, and maintain the sizes.
