Hi,
just finished the start of a Cromwell company for Flames of War. Tanks are 15mm and marked as the 4th County of London Yeomanry in Normandy '44.

Yes again I have gone for the muddy look. I just like my tanks to look like they have been in action. Tried to use less of the thick mud on the front and running gear but more on the back. Marked up as the good old 4th CLY.

Yes indeed Gary these are very fine pieces which I hope bring you lots of dosh.

I think it is a good idea to sell them because if you brought them down to the club I'd only knock them all out :evil:

Hi,
Vallejo pumice gel is a mixture of pumice stone and acrylic resin and is great for texturing bases. Its a good pre mixed gel for basing or using for mud. The gel hold colour well so you can mix paint into it before you use it.

It does shrink a little on the base so you sometimes need to go over it again.

You can get it from
