Frenzy, I don't really know how to tell the difference. These are armaments collected over time from several sources.

The foam is uniform and does show a tight and uniform cell structure, much smaller than I've seen on other types. The only breaks in the surfaces finish were reliefs and markings I assume are from the mould interior faces.

Tracon, where do you source your paints? Asking as the closest LHS for me is quite the drive, but I am heading out there soon to pick up orders.

Tracon I like your DC3, nice copy of the buffalo air paint job. Where did you get it? The testors you use, are they the ones you use on plastic static models?

Thanks
