They look great, perhaps a bit of black paint wouldn't go a miss on the weathering side.

yeah, nice one mate. A friend has some on his line, but without the lines incase someone (or thing) catches them and rips the poles out... Paul Sherwood (maesffordd) has some too...

Whoa - I'd never realised how big those things would be in 16mm scale! :shock: They do look good though.

Its a tedious job but the little 'pots' look more realistic if theyre painted white as in the real thing. :D
