When the bases are painted grass green, it also gives the figures a very 'old school' look to them.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />BobRobert (Bob) Corderyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109130990434792266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6933470253715910366.post-19956142180885485542016-08-17T23:31:15.547+01:002016-08-17T23:31:15.547+01:00Stryker,
