    How do I change my avatar?

    Back in the day I used to have a pic from my gallery as my avatar but I can't seem to find out how. I'm sure it's very simple, that's probably why I can't figure it out 🙄 Jim.

    My drinking days are far behind me nowadays, I.ve needed reading glasses for quite some time for close up work but my farsightedness is still excellent, which is great for hunting. As far as senility goes if I do have a touch how would I know? 🫠😴......😳

    Thanks Jim, I follow no rules not even my own, it seems when it comes to weathering I basically have no established pre-vision. Things just seem to happen and sometimes I feel I'm just along for the ride.

    Semovente

    Thanks Joe, the Semovente series included several versions built on various chassis some even including anti-tank weapons for the role of tank destroyer. They were basically turretless stopgap weapons of dubious worth. They had mixed success rates but basically did not stand a chance against...

    Thanks Steve, materiel is a combo of medical gauze and some of that liken like artificial foliage used by model railroaders and a lot of white glue mixed with a bit of water and then painted of course. I only use the best cheapest water based kiddie craft paints ;) Jim.

    I also try to shoot my pics at a very low angle as if I were a 1/35 scale photographer. This method gives the illusion of size and weight. Once colors are set and before adding dust and mud effects a very light dry brushing of silver and black mix of Testors enamels is applied to edges to give...
