I even carefully cut them to wrap around the shoulder plates and removed bubbles n creases. Highlights, lacquer, fixitive...more time than painting the figures. They spent a year in a Sabol case within the shed while I was deployed. <br />My crimson fist foam trays are the ones with mini red fists all over the foam!david bromleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15373599516429004062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391427662737871662.post-11836156985074812002014-12-20T11:07:47.702-06:002014-12-20T11:07:47.702-06:00They look terrific Curt, I especially like the wea...They look terrific Curt, I especially like the weathering at the bottom of the decal-less shields.
