The three figures pictured were sent to me by my elder brother and are FOV figures. I've never painted a figure,
ever. Some day I will give it a go, but for now, thanks Mike. He also sent back my PZIII chassis, so that will be an up coming build. Also had another HL M4A3 show up for use with Nick's resin M36 turret.
Alpha, thanks for the mystery paint and the two figures. Some rough calculations has him about 4'6" in 1/16 and the FOV is in the 5'8" range.

UHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...On the issue of the figures...so long you don't put a 5 O clock shadow...he could be a kid
...To use that paint...you will need to strip the paint you have on now...no need for a base coat ...just apply quickly...to avoid stroke marks....two coats should be good...and you must use xylene to clean up....no other solvent really works
Hope you like it...haven't found anything else that comes close to the finish that has

Cleaned up two casings that were not installed and tried it out. It is amazing. Mike called it the mystery paint, akin to secret sauce. The empty shell on the rear deck is painted with it, looks great!

It dries fast! I was afraid to touch it because I thought it was still wet.
