For the DIY crowd ;-): Smoke counters made from clump foliage.

Law of the Gun, thanks for that link. Very useful. It was however distracting to see all the open sores on the hands of the presenter.

Those look very nice!

The tanks are huge and can almost pass for 15mm. The first versions were made of pewter. I believe the current versions are made in resin.

Law of the Gun; I have to say the comment about 'open sores' is a little unfair. I counted two small chivs on his hands: hardly a sin…

I'm not a doctor so – for all I know – they might have been caused by anything (including his modelling or something entirely unavoidable) but I didn't think they invalidated the useful video and I see no real problems with it.

I was more distracted by the largely unnecessary 4 minute introduction but – each to their own.

I agree they look nice, but doesn't anyone find $14 USD a little steep for just 2?

A mate put some of these together for FoW using pipe-cleaners and clump. Superglue and clump stuck to him, ripping off skin etc. Soaks up paint too, so uses gallons and takes ages.

Anyone who makes them deserves a medal, not just $14. USD

That said, I won't be buying any. So many of my tanks die that I need more than I could afford, so I need an alternative solution.
