Hi Guys, I think both your projects would be fun. I'd be interested in the painting aspect of small figures. I don't think it would matter too much about what type of figure, but I do WWII myself and work almost entirely in 1/72 scale. If you looked at my models, you probably noticed no figures. I'd like to remedy that and add some "life" to my work. I think the flak tower would be cool, and you're right, it will be BIG when completed. Any kind of scratch building project would I think be appreciated by the readers.
