Cheers Chaps,
It floated off to live on my son's desk at work today. I may make another as I finally found a use for one. (  would round off a bag of figures I mentioned earlier in another thread when I didn't know still made them. Hay Ho. ::) )

Mark.

So now you will build another and do a step-by-step how-to guide? :D

If you need one I'd be happy too. Just remind me in the new year . Otherwise I'll forget as I'm busy getting ready for the York show at the beginning of February.

Great work TS,
Love the design.
Not to hijack your thread, here is what I used to scratchbuild mine.
Old GW marines as a base & packaging card ( pillboxes,toothpaste, brown type cereal boxes etc.) Plastic sprue & em4 +  GW weapons.

Nicely executed.
Not a scale I have much to do with . Simply because I tend just be asked for 28mm.
I'm a big advocate of trying scratch building . Simply to move your hobby forward .All be it because of budget restraints or because no one makes what you need. Or simply for the fun of it.

I do think you should think about a thread dedicated to your builds as a lot 15mm players will over look this thread simply because its 28mm I'm known for.

Thanks TS,
Glad you like them.
Just wanted to share what can be done with paper , card etc
.I have shared them before in separate threads.
Note that even  though I do them for 15/18 mm they can just as easily be used for 28/32 nm. That is one of the pluses of scratchbuilding..
