Hi John, shoot Roc a request for a V-Bench...you'll soon be sorted. All the best...Roy.

No worries Kevin...I had the osprey in front of me and read your post and just quoted what was on the page...I'll get over the terrible upset...maybe cry for a while...will probably need consoling next time we meet... All the best...Roy.

Hi Kevin...the reason you see both colours shown in illustrations is very probably because.. "in the spring of 1854, the 17th were one of the units selected to have the experimental grey overalls, along with the 13th light dragoons". Ref: page 26 The British Army in the Crimea (Osprey) Text by...

Anders and John....that's fantastic news guys, and I wish you all the best for the future. Here's looking forward to a great range of figures. Good luck guys... Roy.

Paulo, Acrobat will grab only the separate pages of a thread, but they can all be combined into a single .pdf fairly easily. If there are a few threads that you would like in .pdf just shoot me the links and I'll convert them for you. The weather for September in Folkestone I'm not sure about...

Hi Paulo...I only know of a program called HTTrack (it's free)...I think it's for downloading threads or perhaps larger portions of websites, it's prone to a few problems especially on sites where a password is needed like here on the planet, so I'm not sure how successful it would be, it may be...

Well done you guys...in my view...The Planet is essential. Keep it up. All the best and many happy returns.!! Roy.

Wishing you all the best for this new venture Chris..!! Kicking off with a figure by John Rosengrant is pure class. Look forward to seeing your new range. All the best...Roy.

Many thanks for continuing to look at and enjoy the picture galleries on my site...there are more galleries being added as I get the time. Also there are some very interesting galleries of featured artists. Jay, generally that's a common feature at shows in Europe. As for our own local show at...

Hi Marc...what a great figure to choose to paint, it's a real beauty. I must comment on your painting here because I think it is your best so far. I know you try to improve with every piece and you love your painting so much. All that work is starting to pay off, because it's easy to see the...

Uli...they all look superb, I can't choose between them, they all have their own appeal. The work on the horses is beautiful. All the best...Roy.

Hi Andy...very nice work...not only on the painting, which shows those washed out colours so well, but for the sculpting which captures some great feeling...nice one mate.. All the best...Roy.

I was sitting here on this very peaceful Sunday afternoon and Just thought you guys may like to take a look at this news item. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/somerset/6921217.stm Roy.

Hi Paul...you can thin milliput and Magic Sculp with water to 'paint' on detail. Magic Sculp is better for this as it's not grainy like Milliput, but you can achieve much the same results with either. Once diluted or liquified, keep in mind that the carrier (water in this case) will gradually...

Lovely stuff Pete...but especially the spiv...brilliant. All the best...Roy.

Just an update on this one guys...of special interest to the guys in the U.K. although I'm sure it will be more widely available in a very short time. Matt from El Greco Miniatures is stocking them and should have them for delivery soon, so give him a call. You'll find the details included in...

Hi Gary..great to see some more of your work. That's a very attractive painting, and would make a great design for a figure. I love the super soft transitions of the light and shade, beautiful work...and that's 'some' weapon..!! All the best...Roy.

Hi Hardy...just super-smooth work, really beautiful start. Look forward to seeing more progress. (Is there a chance we might get a close look at this on the 15th August..??..I would love to see him in the flesh) All the best...Roy.
