Man!!! That Pursuit vignette is superb. Marion's paint work is superb. Look at the creek! The water is great and the animation of the figures is wonderful. It's on my wish list now!! The challenge of making splashing water awaits! And the figures look historically accurate too!!!!!!!!!! ;)...

Hi I stopped by Colorado Miniatures recently, and Vallejos are on sale for $2.25 each. CM page Just a heads up for any interested parties. Andy

Valiant have an Andrew Jackson figure. You'll find it at Squadron. Squadron Jackson listing Those are old figures, so don't expect a 21st century casting (more like a 1970s product). They are classics though. Andy

Hi Roc Well, the University book store here sells it. Try some place that specializes in photographic supplies. They'll have an 18% grey. You could just buy medium to light grey card stock. You can see the approximate shade here: Eastman Museum Shop discussion here (and figure modellers are...

There's a shade of grey that is used in photography. It's a Munsell grey sheet that is supposed to provide a color neutral background. I forget the exact number of course... It's an 18% grey. At the Eastman museum they sell cups and t-shirts that shade of grey... White may add too much...

Hi Dariusz, Thanks for providing us with all these fascinating details! In reference to comments about picking nits; there are more figures out there than I can afford. Historical accuracy is one of the criteria I use along with pose, interest etc. If the sculptor/manufacturer can't be...

Hi Dave Thanks for sharing those links! There were some new ones there for me. Andy

Superb. The tiles look great, as do the figures. Thanks for showing us all your steps on the way! Andy

Hi Dave the groundwork (and figure) look awesome. The snow looks really good - and there's lots around our house to use for comparison!! I've used microballoons, baking soda and Hudson and Allen slush before, all to varying degrees of success. Your snow looks much better. I'll have to get...

That's great!! Congratulations Bob!!

Interesting spelling of Cimmerian... The Barbarian looks strangely familiar... It's a well done item. Andy

Super stuff! It's all really well done. The feather is very well done, and that's a very clever idea for making it against the form! Cheers Andy

The cage looks great! Super work there. So this is Cujo some time in the past I guess!! Cheers Andy

Which is just a little more figure oriented!!! ;) Cheers Andy

Hi Mike It's a general IPMS show. I'm going because I live here!! I think there'll be some figure stuff. There are a couple of pretty good painters around here, and they turn up at the local shows. And the 'fast' ferry is still not running. The city of Rochester has formed a group that's...
