WOW!  Don't have much to say because my mind has blown...

I was wondering where you have been... I even looked for you at Armora site but no luck.  It has to be one of the best WIPs I have ever seen. Please don't hesitate to post 'em here where you have many fans.  I gave in and brought a set of Vallejo flesh paint for figures painting.  Same for Lifecolor acrylic paint... Heart

Thanks for letting us know about this.  Yes

Outstanding model! When I get to the point of "well, I guess the modelling community has thought of everything to miniaturize," we come up with something like this...a unique and thought provoking representation of history! Thanks for your effort and Semper-Fi. Ron Smith

Ron Smith~ Thank you~!
