    Hey Dave, thanks for the kind words and for following my SBS.
    Yes, poste militaire figures are wonderful and I surely miss them, :(
    in my opinion they produced some of the best figures in the market, they were true pioneers.

    Keep up the good work.

    Cheers

    Roc-

    As always, your color selection and highs and shades are right on the money. Look forward to seeing him on his horse! BTW, where is the horse?
