I like the idea of putting skelly heads on the faded Lions & Axes
torsos. For now they are forming the "Blues' and the 'Blacks'
fractions :) None of the Falcons show even the slightest bit of fade
- which is ok since I like them better then the Lions & Axes.
A side note: I'm really surprized by the condition of the horses,
especially the white ones. All of them look like they just came out of
the box, still shiny and very little wear marks (if any). I have some
white horses I acquired from Brickbay that show a heck of a lot
more wear and fade than these beauties.
