So the mortar bombs were red? Looks like a great range. Nice work Piers as is now de rigueur.

Just spoke to Nic at Eureka… Cut off date for pre-order sales for pick up at Salute is 19th March. The range then goes on general sale 1st May.

Pull the other one. Those must be at least 54mm, you fibber … :-)

Skarper, yes… Red Iron Oxide. Its not as bright red as it looks in the pic. I use Vallejo Hull Red for both German and Soviet mortar bombs. Dwindling Gravitas… Keep it quiet… They will all realise!
