Yep - that's from Michael at Angel Barracks: nice guy although he likes the wrong scale [6mm...phooey  :) ] - he supported Nikfest last year. Talented old so-and-so too  ;)

A freind uses those metal mint tins as the basis for WW2 pill boxes - covered in filler and sprayed grey.  The hinge bits act as the firing slits.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Some really great ideas there from Michael at Angelbarracks. The keyboard keys and bottle tops look the business.
