GG, it's no good printing that small - even with my big magnifying glass I can't make head or tail of that.  :(

If you quote you'll see it at full size; I just assume no-one will bother  :D  (apart from Nobby and Westmarcher).
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

He's right.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Ever tried to draw, let alone paint, a pig using straight lines?

Either the 3-colour camo smocks on my 6mm Panzergrenadiers, or the nose art on my 1/600 scale B-17s and B-24s.

Could try it. But it would have to be highly stylised.
