Interesting links thanks

Hey there Paddy.

I forgot to post a link for the Master Box Commonwealth AFV Tank Crew North Africa set. Check out the dromedary and the rider in that set. I got that set just for the dromedary and rider. The set of 6 figures is less than you'd pay for one resin dromedary.

There's a German NA figure set that has a donkey with an Arab rider.

I ordered 2 of the figure sets Peter listed above ( 8th Army) Also looking at ideas for a desert dio base. Not easy as i want to add some detail and there is not a lot of that in the desert
I need to read up on flesh tone ideas.

One nice thing about painting figures for a desert environment is that you'll hardly have to do any work on the eyes. Inthe bright sun the eyes are narrowed to mere slits.
