Best painted Denison ever!
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Cheers. I'll probably get the crew and base done before the gun, as I'll probably paint it with the jeeps.

Almost an award, however my inner detail nerd beat you to it.
If you zoom in and squint to the point of distraction, you'll be able to just about make out the hint of khaki that was my effort at doing the handles...

Thanks for the high praise Carlos, it's a pretty basic formula. Base coat, wash, dry brush...the end.

Got another ten figures on rural bases nearly done, and five on rubble.

Cheers chaps.
Got the next group almost done, mainly Polish beret wearing blokes, just awaiting some varnish to dry prior to their turn in front of the camera.
