Great products but 28mm is way too giant for me. 20mm or 15mm and I'd be there already.

Turned out well.

The Bond figure appears to be dancing - obviously following the FBI/CIA lead and dancing while armed.

Like Will, I have the British and Australian WW1 Camelry to start, plus the new Strelets WW2 8th Army heavy weapons set. I'm also working on a PSC 25 lbr battery for the desert. I also managed to get hold of the Italeri Wirbelwind kit which needs assembly, as well as a pair of Zvezda M3 Lees. Cheers...

These look good and fill a nice niche. Also allow lots of head swop opportunities with 8th Army figures. http://www.strelets-r.com/Pages/SetImage/I321202.JPG http://www.strelets-r.com/Pages/SetImage/I321203.JPG http://www.strelets-r.com/Pages/Set.aspx?SetID=321&M=M Out in time for Christmas perhaps?...

It does make them quite robust though. Not sure if the colours of the blankets on the camels are authentic, but they aren't the ...

The new Strelets Ottoman Camel Corps set. My order turned up last week, so I got them painted up, ready for action. The standing guy on the left is holding a set of reins and fits the head of a camel as shown in the second photo. https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bJG115O_ldU/W26I7H2tLhI/AAAAAAAAHNI/kcPsl9U...

Hi Carl,

That's a bit of a blow about the variations in ink composition. That's why I go with Agrax Earthshade though as it seems to be pretty consistent so far. I'm not a fan of GW products, but if it works and doesn't cost the roof, then I'm happy.

Thanks Carl. It's all brushwork. I used to use a cheapo, entry-level airbrush, but it packed in, so I upgraded to a Harder and Steinbeck, but I just can't seem to make it work for me. That is, it works, but I don't like using it. So they are all base coated by brush, washed with Agrax Earthshade and...
