I have completed my latest tutorial or "how I paint Desert Rats" I had a rough night again I struggled to get to sleep,

picture
so I used the time to complete my tutorial. Hopefully its up scratch and fit for purpose link The Perry 8th Army are a joy to paint and relatively quick due to a lot less equipment then the D.A.K .
So thanks for looking hope you all find it of some use
and cheers for now

I couldn't find the tutorial, but the photos of the figures look great! Good job!

abelp01, I have had problems with Photobucket over the last couple of days, the link works fine for me and the instructions appear at the bottom of each photo.You may have to click on the first photo and then scroll through. If that doesn't work I'm not really sure what's going on but thank you for the kind words.
Cheers for now Russ
