Hi John Thanks for your comments re the finished figure. It sounds like the catalogue you had was from Craft Supplies that I mentioned above as they mostly do things for wood turning, they also sometimes advertise in Mil Mod. Jason

I have just finished a commision of a Le Cimier Ploish Lancer Trumpeter which the client wants to have in his office. I am looking for a UK source for a glass or acrylic dome 11-12" high x 6" diameter to keep the dust off. I have tried Wiremill Designs but theirs are too small, Craft supplier...

Humbrol make, made? a metalic red number 51. You could also try something like tamiya clear red over a silver base coat. Jason

Hi Robin If your thinking along the lones of a samurai you cant get much better than Ft. Duquesnes mounted Samurai Commander, Butifully sculpted by Emanuel Valejro(sp?) who has a deep knowledge of horses. The casting is faultless and the whole thing just clips together the fit is so good. The...

Thanks everyone for your comments Johan Glad to hear that you like the figure. The armour is more Northern Italian c.1580 than Spanish / Portugese although the kabuto (helmet) is more likely Spanish but worn with the sweep facing forward as the Japanese tended to prefer. This is based on one...

Guy - Thanks for the complements Mike - As you can see I have a liking for samurai subjects, there's another 5 in my other cabinet and about half a dozen others in my grey army all in the larger sizes 90mm plus, i'm not keen on the smaller scales.

Hi Edson I would also go for the largest cabimet that you have room for, I started with one 2'x3' then made another to match it. I am now getting close to capacity of the 3'x5' one as you can see below, one of the disadvantages of liking 120mm figures and busts. Jason
