Re: Scania 112

Re: Hand painted 1/16 figure

I know the feeling, I used to paint Warhammer figures and had a special brush just for eyes.
A normal small brush, leave just one hair and cut the others, dip it lacquer to make it stiff and voila,...

Re: KATO HD308US

Thanks, popping in here once and awhile to keep up all of the builds going on and get inspirations really helps to keep me from going insane.

Re: KATO HD308US

Thanks, why does it always have to be "bigger is better"

Re: Scania 112

I came to the conclusion rather quickly that 6x4 would be a simpler solution, or at least forget the lift axle (for now, might revisit it later).
