Which probably explains why Paul Bonners brilliant art works shows them only slightly bigger than a human.Dazza36https://www.blogger.com/profile/07459493545913323985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3283315887973123007.post-87525495175166652502014-04-19T05:19:25.606-07:002014-04-19T05:19:25.606-07:00Good work!

I've been reading a few articles about their fluff and history and seems quite unfortunately they didn't stamp their own ground as an independent army of their own. Though I guess it's a good thing now since it gives them bit of a cult following.
