VOLKS 1/8 - No one in HK will have interest as no one will waste time and money to accomodate a dog of that size.....:59:
Your weathering methods are very detail and effective, but I think some brothers thought the it was too much on the 1/12, so worried if you will not regret on that.
Anyway, it's the owner's choice on how much weathering is perfect, so please feel free to go on with your belief.
