Rabbitz, Dave E who lives not far from you got some Mega Minis Chickens with some other animals recently (I bought them thru Ebay). I think there are other birds as I got the Birds of Prey which IIRC is 2 vultures, 2 buzzards, 2 crows, 2 magpies and 4 flying eagles/hawks which are nice, If you wanna see them drop me a PM & we'll arrange a viewing (just black undercoated at this stage).
When it comes to painting figs, Joe, Dave's son is a whizz. Dave made most of our club buildings, Joe & Svend painted most of them.
