BTR40s, BTR152s, ASU-57s that sort of thing. Anyways, let's get the infantry and guns done and I'll worry about armour closer to the time.<br /><br />Cheers<br />MarkMarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13835446049246785287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2225875593099728358.post-84782793770656073132009-09-08T09:17:33.216+01:002009-09-08T09:17:33.216+01:00Ah!

If only painting the buggers was that fast! Re: Visors, yes to Green Stuff. I've tried paper and plasticard strips in the past but it's so damn fiddly! When you think you have it sussed, one end or the other pops up again. Don't laugh about the neon green though. I have tins of Humbrol Neon Green and Neon Orange from around 1980 which are still on the go!<br /><br />Cheers<br />MarkMarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13835446049246785287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2225875593099728358.post-23093248984370825002009-09-07T18:49:41.410+01:002009-09-07T18:49:41.410+01:00Lol have they sussed your 'paint job' yet?...Lol have they sussed your 'paint job' yet? :)<br /><br />Looks good though Mark are you going to get the green stuff out for the visors?<br /><br />Craig @ Critical Mass GamesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2225875593099728358.post-86545495483663320772009-09-07T18:30:26.575+01:002009-09-07T18:30:26.575+01:00Mark,

To this end, I will not be making many conversions to the figs, if any. <br /><br />Your sample treatment of the ameoba cam makes it look a lot less blatent than the fabric samples you showed me originally.<br /><br />-EliEli Arndthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10445801567500822187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2225875593099728358.post-46385402909512315752009-09-07T13:58:17.725+01:002009-09-07T13:58:17.725+01:00Excellent looking figures!
