If I do the four boxes of plastic cav right I should have at least four horses/figures I can convert to casualty markers but it'll take a fair amount of modeling work to do it properly. <br /><br />So, a lot of competing priorities AND uni work. Ooh boy. <br /><br />Cheers,<br /> DocDoc Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12454394616689797734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3020094779384982600.post-56384511759712888932010-06-12T00:16:48.236+10:002010-06-12T00:16:48.236+10:00Yep, very skillfully done.

I was hoping someone would make transfers for these. I want to paint my first box up as either the 9th or 8th - maybe both. I like the colors of both units. .
