have just  got round to taking a half decent picture of a model i finished a while back it's a games workshop

   warhammer 40,000
   NECRON
     C'TAN
NIGHTBRINGER

its white metal and to be honest was a pig to glue ,requiring several pins i  also added to the base as the model is very top heavy due to the pose.
i used games workshop  citadel paint colours .<far superior to humbrol,tamiya etc>,the model is usually painted mainly in black but i fancied using a different colour scheme and i think it works quite well.

i have just finished this 1/35 white metal belgo model bought at huddersfield for £2 i called it "lucky strike" as it is a german paratrooper who has just found a carton of enemy fags as my dad reckoned they always struggled for them but the yanks had plenty i thought they would most likely be american. i scratchbuilt the fence<and in hindsight put the figure to close to it> and used the static grass also bought at huddersfield from "TREEMENDOUS" which once you get the hang of it is really good

2nd of the 3 belgo white metal figures bought at 'uddersfield for the princely sum of £2 @.unusual in the fact that the figure was carrying 2 rifles ,as one got broken i subbed it for a tamiya helmet.

last one.of the three belgo models purchased at 'uddersfield,it's the one behind the counter with the wine botttle,perhaps though my best purchase at the said show was a huge bag of body parts etc legs ,arms,torso's ,heads,helmets etc for a fiver,i had cause to use it with this model as the resin one <wine bottle guy> had no legs in the box .the other figure is a tamiya one and the rest is scratchbuilt.
