I'm a bit dubious about the Partridge Family brick work. I'd like to see how this turns out. Have you done any more work on it?

And so am I now!
I plan to shoot more pics this weekend, and get them to you.
Two coats of oil paint have dulled the colors, but they still look very "Partridge". Eric's points are a concern too.
I have posed two of the paras, and made some adjustments there.
And the resin 'flash' was holding the weapons together. I thought I had a simple break on the rifle and Bren, but they are in
multiple pieces. Removing the flash caused the parts to fall apart! I've contacted VLS to see what happens. The rifle can be
salvaged, but the Bren is a mess, and has BOTH hands molded on it, so replacement with a DML or Tamiya Bren will be a bear.
I'm now looking for pics of the buildings between Arnhem and the LZ to see if this street corner scene is appropriate. Cobblestone
road and brick house may not work. They may be looking for a map during Operation Varsity or in Normandy at this rate...
Cheers
