The island of Domestos - 20mm

[carlos marighela]

I like those,the taverna especially. Nice work Bezzo.

Now if you tire of 1943, you could populate with your island with holidaying 20 sumfink British yoof and have a friendly power pour naval gunfire into the local discotheque or raid the place with special forces. Could be a fun project, you would only need a limited palette for the holidaymakers skin tones. Bright orange, scarlet and the occasional mahogany sideboard coloured individual would see you right.

Great work on the Buildings. The rest thanks for the puns I had a great laugh as I went along.

Gothic Line: Domestos is not a real island, over here it is a bleach product used to clean toilets.....

I can understand the confusion, I don't know whether Domestos is sold in Portugal but I can't recall ever seeing it in Brazil. Most of their other cleaning products like Omo, Surf, Comfort etc do appear on supermarket shelves.

I suspect they've avoided marketing Domestos as such because the name bears a similarity to 'domestica' the person most likely to be using the stuff in any well off household. No simple housewife wants to be reminded of the fact and no maid wants to be equated with a bottle of of bleach.

Even in Australia, more often than not, my wife gives me shopping instructions in Portuguese and on occasion by brand  name, so I have to equate 'Bombril' with steel wool
and perform other acts of mental gymnastics in various aisles of my local supermarket.
