megroot A Fixture Joined Jan 7, 2004 Messages 28,322 Location Netherlands, Arnemuiden May 13, 2012 #9 This is one of the difficulties from the last years. I have seen alot of them on the contest tabels and they are "always" painted by the masters. I think you belong to this club of masters. What a excellent start. Looking forward to your next step.
