Little Britons have to be buffed to a high gloss shine so intense that any flash photography used upon them can inadvertently blind passers by !

In the end, I've just gone with lashings of Humbrol enamel gloss varnish, brushed on lovingly. First time I've actually brushed on varnish in decades! Very shiny.

I was going to say it’s been discontinued, as that’s what I’ve been told by 3 model shop staff in the last few years, in fact GM gave me his last tin as I probably looked inconsolable.
But it is available:

That flag is upside down (yes, I know they don't have one yet, but they will and we all know that it will be upside down).

Dunno yet, there's odds and ends like a 17lb gun for the British Airborne, very annoyingly, two BTD German motorcycle combos (Very annoying because I want three for a squad, and I am not prepared to order from BTD, so I am on the hunt for a second hand one.)

I am tossing up whether to start my Victrix Late Republican Romans, 1745 Highlanders from the Flags of War Kickstarter for SP2, or another CoC Platoon (probably Italian).
