Hi Pete,
Nice sets there :thumb2:,I have their Italian set and they do look excellent.
I`m almost exclusively a Vallejo man normally,(With a few small exceptions),but seeing these "Life Colour" paints called out for in most instructions,i thought i`d try some for the two Italian AFVs i have.I`d be interested to hear your thoughts on them?!

That kit, when you could have gotten its AFV Club counterpart?

Third one recommending the rust set here……it’s excellent, especially if you tint the results with dark blue to get heat staining…….not tried the wood one though, I just use VJ colours and make it up as I go along!

But have you seen the prices that those go for?.... I got this for £20 delivered
A no brainer in my wallet eyes!!..... I like to think that i can do enough on it myself to add some details:thumb2:,
I do see what you mean though!

That would go nicely with the Policeman Dave mentioned on the internet spots page.

Postie just dropped these off

And an ebay purchase that may have proved to be an error

Sold as used & part assembled, but unfortunately quite badly assembled! No sign of filler, though, so iy may be recoverable.....................
