Really? Have you compared them to Herpoics and Ross for example? And this horrible flash under the barrel..

I understand what you're saying!

But I like the tubby looking little blighters. I left the under-barrel flash alone and gave it a dark wash and it seems ok! Blush

And horribly expensive... they are a pig to make, filler all over, cant find the portholes, diameter of the tail boom dont match thefuselage. THey do make a dammed good H-t-H cvombat weapon though.

If you don't starin your wrist. It's so bnad that it's easy to convert to the later one - you just leave the wings off. For those at Warfayre in REading will have seen three of em on the Battle Group display, me wind turbine!
