Thought i would put these up - saw this all on ebay - have no clue what I was looking for to be honest,  but now I have them and used them I am sold!!!

My hands shake a little when doing finicky work, and thus pen type paints are a boon and they work well... I have Silver, white, Black and grey and have my second batch on order.
Also there is Molotov chrome pen, and liquid putty, which I find far more useful that the tube variety.

In the same vein, Staedter makes 0.005 mm black pens that are great for drawing panel lines!

Bought some 1/35 figures ,they are Miniart British tank crew ,but I think that they could be jigged to look ok in the pits  Also one has had the black wash ,a vallego one and thinned down a bit , certainly toned down the white overalls ,and I think maybe another coat . Second figure should be reading a map with a compass ,but will make a good timing official  

Thanks for looking Steve

Positioned the time keeper (map reader)in the pits ,bit of a wash , still can't make up my mind if it helps or not

Thanks Leo ,3more of them to do although I think one of them may be difficult to use without a lot of mods ,we shall see . Still learning with the wash but they had so many shades on offer perhaps I should have started with a lighter one

Hi Steve,

Very nice figures.
The 1:35 scale is not a problem at all; They are less tall, just like some real people.
