Nice I like that Ian , that would go very nice with my bunker assault

 

[Guest]

Nice and interesting box

Excellent base

 

[Guest]

I reckon you'll turn this into something very nice Ian. Thinking back to my youth, those figures could do with priming before painting - although they tasted good as I recall!

 

[monica]

nice Ian, this is going to be good and looking forward to seeing it come together

what a great wife you have she has done well,

 

[Guest]
