Birthplace: Kilkenny, Ireland

Enlisted in the Royal Artillery and cut his teeth in Bosnia and Iraq, the hard way performing long range reccy's in enemy territory.

Had a similar problem with the red , all my dull finish stuff had run out or dried up.
Found the Revell SM 330 worked a treat.

For this guys head it was Tamiya Acrylic. I've also tried Mr Hobby Acrylic which is near identical but probably a dash better :-? and Humbrol Enamel which won't set well on the Palitoy stuff. On one of the last customs (Q Force Limpet) I used Mr Hobby grey as an undercoat and applied the Humbrol matt blue. That set a lot better but still not perfect. All the Acrylics set in around 20 minutes, Humbrol never sets well it seems. I've kinda taken to acrylics, the semigloss come up really nice (See SAS Skellen).

I'm not sure how you'd go sending liquids via international post these days. But if its possible that'd be really cool, thanks. BTW I need your address for these 2 figures too, Ross.

Its Dukes helmet with a painted Space Force visor. Pretty similar to Steelers. The idea is the targetting sytem is built into the headset. I should post a pic of him wit the helmet on I guess.
