    Thanks.
    SKP are a Czech company with a decent (and quite cheap) British range of figures.
    The figures I've had have been good but they tend to need a lot more clean up than more expensive brands.
    Hope that helps.

    Are you building the Spitfire to go along with your pilot, too?

    Ah, OK, I see, you're adding the keg. At first, I wondered how people would know he was the pilot of a Beer Bomber and not just some fighter pilot figure :D

    Prost!

    I was never totally convinced with this figure so I've started again with some changes.
    Alpine head with Polish eagle badge and a replacement left arm from Hornet.
    Lots to do.

    Henty and Constable Brewery...... Ah ! Fond memories of a misspent studenthood. If I close my eyes, I can still remember
    the taste of their Five X Winter Beer. Brewed only between November and March, it was like alcoholic Marmite.

    Following so many mistakes and false starts that I thought about jacking it all in and finding a knew hobby, I've finally started to make headway.
