By the way did you paint the symbols on the Volgan helmets by hand?

Yup, although it is very much simplified (just two strokes and a dot of yellow, and two more dots for the eyes).

Nice work Chris.

Fantastic!

Did you print out the "Big Jobs!" screen or did you paint it?

The whole thing looks brilliant one way or the other.  Great work.

Did you print out the "Big Jobs!" screen or did you paint it?

I did it in Photoshop in high resolution, using the "Westminster BT" font and some layer style tweaking to make it look like a cathode ray tube image, and then printed it, attached it using PVA and gave it a glosscoat to finish it up.

(although I may have to get the "small" Hammerstein as well, but we'll see that)

As discussed before, the "small" Hammerstein isnt as nice a sculpt as "big" Hammerstein, but is far more in scale with the rest of the ABC miniatures.

Foundry have a 20%-off sale at the moment too...

And I'm pretty much strapped for cash until the 3rd of June to make a worthwile order (i.e. one where the discount exceeds the postage).

Ford? I thought it was a John Deere at first. Excellent work.
