basics are always welcome I feel, I really like how these turned out and I
agree with you about the proportions of the PSC figures, so much so that I
bought an infantry box and 2 of the German heavy weapon boxes to attach to
it, unfortunately they’ve been sitting on a shelf since I got them on
release. Watching this has given me a push to get them assembled and based
to paint the little blighters at last. Always a pleasure to watch your
vids.
