    Wife doesn't like my music...

    Can't say that I have... I'll have to have a look! I do enjoy the melding of technology and classical music. Randy

    Completed The Battle of Camulodunum - 1/16 Diorama

    I agree! And I also don't know why so many in our hobby avoid the resources/references from those other arts. I have several "art" books in my library for just this reason! (And I'll be looking at that list you linked to a few comments up, too...) Randy

    Completed The Battle of Camulodunum - 1/16 Diorama

    Is that ordinary "green stuff" putty that you use? And do you have any special or favorite tools to use in sculpting? Randy

    Godhand Tools ...blog from Julian Conde's "News from the Front"

    Have a look at the Dspiae nippers I reviewed a few weeks ago. They're a bit less spendy than Godhand. Can't say what they'll run in the UK, though. Randy

    (Maybe Silly) Do You Have a "Deal-breaker" for Choosing Figures?

    Oy, amen to that! My wife has been helping me organize all my modeling... "stuff". So far we've focused on all my after-market for armor, aircraft, etc. But in the process, it's become clear (to me as well!) how over-the-top I've gotten with buying figures and sending them straight to the...

    15th Hussar Spain 1808

    This just rocks. Taking feedback, carefully considering it, and then acting on it? There are a lot of inject-molding companies that could learn from this! Randy

    (Maybe Silly) Do You Have a "Deal-breaker" for Choosing Figures?

    Oh yeah. When I was first dipping my toes into figurines, Verlinden 120mm was really taking off. But WOW! some of those sculpts were terrible! I remember one figure (but don't remember the subject) whose left hand was on his hip with the fingers splayed out. Dude's fingers were nearly twice as...

    (Maybe Silly) Do You Have a "Deal-breaker" for Choosing Figures?

    Not a moral thing, no. I just hate the stuff. I mean, that is an objection to smoking, but it's not for moral reasons. Don't like the smell, don't like the way it's entwined into culture, etc. I know that my decision to not model it won't erase it, but I just wouldn't want to look at my display...

    (Maybe Silly) Do You Have a "Deal-breaker" for Choosing Figures?

    That would have been a hell of a straight line to leave open :-). Randy

    Welcome! The photos you've shared look like you're off to a pretty good start :-). I'm another tread-head who happens to enjoys figures as well. I've only been (regularly) visiting for a month or two at this point, but I'm really enjoying it here. Hope you do, too! Randy

    Completed Young Miniatures S-Boat Crewman Bust

    I have a handful of 1/10 busts from this company (trying to get 5 tankers to make a collection). This really jazzes me up for pulling one off the shelf. Randy

    (Maybe Silly) Do You Have a "Deal-breaker" for Choosing Figures?

    That is, is there something that makes you decide a given figure is off the table? I.e., maybe you have no desire to model anything to do with the Waffen SS, for example. For me, it's tobacco use. I just have zero interest in painting any figure holding a pipe, cigar, etc. Make no mistake, it...

    Magic sculpt

    Here's another vote for Green Stuff World. I've ordered from them several times from here in the U.S. and always had great service. Randy

    New Figure Haakon VII (1872 - 1957)

    Lovely figure! My wife had to remind me (again) that I need to start FINISHING projects before buying new ones! (Bookmarked your website, though :-)...) Randy
