    Hi all,
    The figures are now done.
    The two mechanic figures were from 'Kellerkind' (54107) and 'Copper State Models' (F32-052).
    The Camel and rider were from the 'Master Box' Commonwealth AFV Crew (S3564).
    The decorations on the camels saddle cloth were created from the 'Xtradecal' White parallel stripes (XPS2) decal set.
    The decorations on the camels breast strap were created from:
    'Xtradecal' White parallel stripes (XPS2) decal set
    Cut from scrap lozenge decal from a 'Wingnut Wings' Fokker D.VII kit.
    The harness rope is copper wire painted with 'Tamiya' Dark Yellow (XF60) then dusted with dark earth pigment,,
