Hi, I am wondering how best to texture, colour and weather a camel? Not the flying kind, the spitting, smelly belligerant kind. I am making up the Heller "Compagnie Saharienne" to put in a dio with my SAS Landy.

Hi winchweight,
they come in a variety of colours, from dark chocolate brown to almost sandy white. But usually sandy beige.
Texture is mostly smooth like a deer or horse with rougher woolly bits around the hump and neck.
I'll try and find some pics.
Cheers

Hi again,
found a couple that show a little of the colour variety


I downloaded from a stock image company and as long as we don't publish them, we won't pay royalties....

Hope they help.
Cheers
Peter
I think the third one on the right fancies you mate :-)

Very carefully, as they are nasty beasts.
