Painting horses was interesting. Not the best kits overall but trying something new is always a good thing. as I've said, harness was a problem and it was a lot of fixing ad improvising. But if you don'0t look too closely and focus on other parts of dio it's fine. 🙂

Some dry brushing of gun metal and using AK Interactive weathering pencils and pin washes. Minimal dirt on lower parts as I didn't want to overdo it.

Figures are so-so. There is extensive flash that requires significant clean up. However, parts fit nicely and have average amount of detail for injection kits. It's also one of few kits where troops are relaxing rather than "in action". The problem is that figures lack equipment and jackets.

I used old Verlinden set of clothing. As It's W-
