    6 pots - 12ml each for £8.75 delivered. The bottles are marked 'Made in the Ukraine by ICM' . It says they are optimised for brush painting & will need diluting for airbrush.
    I don't have a ICM Marder to paint, but they seemed to me to be the most useful selection of paints from the ICM sets! Might be a while before I can review them.......

    Nice one Dave,

      I'm an Anton guy personally. But that book is a great read and full of really good info.

        Looks real good and the tires aren't the rubber nonsense type. Hope to set it in Italy somewhere with a Pz. IV G late, a crane and a motor or two in the back...

            I have the Tamiya album, that I took that photo from. I also have a couple of the Verlinden Way books, but if this diorama appeared in an issue of those, then it’s not in the ones I own. But I recognise the figures next to the tank as the Flak crew in winter uniforms that Tamiya released.

                Ordered at 3.45 PM yesterday and delivered this morning.
                [ATTACH]435882[/ATTACH]
                Had a quick look in the box, typical ICM quality and lots of small bits to keep me on the ball.
