Hi from Mini Materials

[Mini Materials]

Hey guys,

My name is Mat. I'm from Orlando, FL. I started www.minimaterials.com and just recently started advertising here. I specialize in more of the scenery and architecture type stuff, and I don't know a ton about the miniatures world as far as painting goes, so I can't wait to start participating and reading some of the stuff you guys do.

Welcome! you have some interesting stuff, although as 'Peedee', said it is very modern and quite American in nature.

Are you expanding your range of supplies in the future?

Mark.

Some interesting products on your website. Welcome aboard

Very interesting products and a nifty web site! A couple recommendations and a question, if I'm allowed.
1) On your web site, you indicate the scale of most of your products on most pages, but not all of them. It would be easier for figure makers, doll house hobbyists, aircraft, tank, ship, etc., model builders and painters and model railroad guys if you consistently indicated scale.
2) Maybe you know this, but just in case. Some scales of miniature products like yours are more useful to certain of these markets. Examples: HO scale or 1/87.1 - railroaders; 1/12th - doll house hobbyists; 1/48th - tanks, aircraft, etc. and so forth. Miniatures - 54mm or about 1/32nd, 75mm or about 1/24th, 90mm or about 1/18th & 120mm or about 1/16th. Not a complete list and there are exceptions and caveats. Anyway, my suggestion is that if you want your products sold in and to the miniatures market, produce them in those scales.

Q: You produce miniatures of the most typical shape of concrete block used in the US. I'm thinking that the shape and size of concrete blocks is much different in Europe than in the US. Don't know about Asia or other parts of the world. ?

Enjoy the forum!!

All the best,
Dan
