    Alas the time has come

    Personally I think you're being a bit rash Steve. There's plenty of stuff there that can be adapted for modelling purposes. Toilet brush bristles make great aerials for example.

    Acrylics over oils, ok?

    Whatever container they come in it's not advised to add water. :D

    Acrylics over oils, ok?

    I should have mentioned this earlier but when I use acrylics over oil for picking out detail they are used straight from the tube without diluting with water. That's probably a major factor in the technique actually working. :LOL: Roger.

    Acrylics over oils, ok?

    I'm afraid I will politely disagree with that statement. If the oils are dry they will adhere. However when I use acrylic over oils it is only over small areas such as piping on uniforms, buttons etc. and not large areas. Roger.

    Acrylics over oils, ok?

    My advice is to ignore the rules and advice and go ahead and experiment on an old or scrap figure. What's the worst that can happen? Nobody's going to die. Roger.

    IP licencing/piracy

    I must've have been in a couple of years then, they wouldn't have a sprog with anything as technical as a stick and a hoop.

    The up and down's ok, the side to side is what does it.

    Thanks Kev. I really enjoyed this one after a bit of a break. Last night I dusted off some incomplete 30mm figures to continue work on. :) Roger.

    IPMS Torbay 25/5 plus update on Chota Sahib

    That's great news re. the Chota Sahib figures. I've order kits from the Frome Model Centre in the past and they are already bookmarked as a good trader. (y)

    WIP 60th K.R.R.C.

    Safe journey and drive carefully. ;) Looking good Richie. IMO the 60th's was one of the smartest infantry uniforms of the 19th century so looking forward to seeing it with some paint on. Roger.
