Although only the paints came in the New Year I only just got round to taking pics of the others so I've included them. 4x Tommyswar and a great book, the paints I like for the great dry brushing abilities and layering of the two.The post cards came with two of the figures.

Hi JED,
Pardon my ignorance, so the Tommys War stuff are figures? And would like to see more on the paints you use to dry brush with.
Jim

Hi JED, Pardon my ignorance, so the Tommys War stuff are figures? And would like to see more on the paints you use to dry brush with. Jim Hi Jim, yes @tommyswar are a range of WWI figures, it is a great range of figures and some extras such as trench sections. It is a one man owned UK company who uses the great skills of different sculptors. 13/2 or 54mm in scale. The castings really are spot on with minimum cleaning up required or filling of gaps. i will try and show some pieces through the stages of using the dry brush paints probably next weekend. They have a very strong pigment and are quite a thick consistency, very much like Humbrol paints before you mix them, they are also acrylic so dry quickly so allow quick build up of colour if needed. jed
