Hi all, It's time to do the next miniature exchange. So, following on from ME26, this is the official announcement to ME27. The organizers are: Gohkm - Contact point for all issues regarding the Asia-Pac region. Master of Fact - Cotact point for all issues regarding the UK/Europe regions...

Hi all, Ever since my local LGS shut down, it's been a real pain trying to land some Testors Dullcote. A bloke at the [un-nameable] hobby shop (the monster franchise one) suggested I try out this spray sealant called Mr. TopCoat - he swears by it. Has anyone used this stuff before? I'm...

Hi all, I'm trying to learn to paint pastels at the moment, my current bugbear being pink. Switching to a foundation type paint seems to have solved my pink's rather poor coverage, but I keep buggering up the shading. I've tried mixing pink and Warlock Purple for a first shade, then go over...

Hi all, It's time to do the next miniature exchange. Unfortunately, OllieHolmes has not responded to any PMs for a while, so none of us know what's happening on his end. We all hope that he's OK, and nothing untoward has happened. But the show must go on! So, following on from ME25, this is...

Hi all, The Oz Painters community is doing its part to help raise funds for those affected by the floods in QLD earlier on this year. You may have seen the devastation caused, of houses and cars and people swept away. Full recovery will take years, and we're trying to do our part. All proceeds...

Hi all, I'm looking for a Rackham Confrontation Soim. Doesn't really matter what state he's in, since I'm going to be hacking and chopping him up anyway. Although, admittedly, if he weren't painted, it'd make my job that much easier :). I'm also after 4x Dirz Scorpion claw-scythe arms, sort...

Hi all, I recently saw one of the bio-chambers for sale at Olliie's Armies, and I'm quite taken by it. However, I really hate the stock standard mutant-in-chamber fig that comes with those. I'd therefore like to ask if anyone can recommend a 'droopy' fig - one with slack arms, head hanging...

Hi all, It's time to do the next miniature exchange. Olliholmes is still the overseer of the exchange, I'm just giving him a hand in the interim. So, following from ME24: HOW TO SIGN UP Reply to this thread, after you’ve read the rules and understand them, with your location and shipping...

Leslie Nielsen passed away: http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/movies/leslie-nielsen-dead-20101129-18da3.html. For some really odd reason, I feel like a part of my childhood has passed beyond reach, too. Many fond memories of his films.

Hi all, I read somewhere (a really, really long time ago!) that Tamiya Clear paints were good to use for lenses and gems. However, I would like some advice on using these effectively. I bought a tub of the Clear Red to use, so I pull the stuff out the pot and dilute with water (1 part paint to...

Hi all, My boss is preggers. I'd like to paint up something cutesy for her and her impending bub, but I'm short on ideas here. I've look at the Darksword figs, and the mousling series from Reaper, but nothing seems suitable. Can someone suggest something? Ideally, it ought to be a trio - dad...

Hi all, Does someone know what fig is the barbarian girl that Natalya Melnik paints in her 'Secrets of Miniature Painting' DVD? I know I've seen it before elsewhere, but now I can't place it and it's driving me bats! Thanks!

Hi all, Due to personal commitments, I am being forced to back out of this project. All contributors to the project, your donations are being arranged for forwarding direct to Lizcam. It would be greatly appreciated if someone would be able to step up and replace me. Please contact me directly...

Hi all, Just bought a new house, barely 6 months after moving into the old, rented one. So, again, I find myself really needing to get rid of stuff. Without further ado, for sale are: 1. Ilyad Lilith the Spider Queen NIB - not really a fig anymore, Lilith stands at about 10cm tall. Do a...

I've got a couple of rare figs from a now-defunct company. Somebody suggested that I make moulds of these figs, and cast them either in metal or resin. This sounds awfully like IP infringement to me - is this correct? Even though the original firm no longer exists, their publishing arm still...

Hi guys, As promised: I'm trying to pull together an engagement gift for our newly engaged couple from the CMON community. I have instructions to strictly stay away from the kitchen stuff, but pretty much everything else is a go. Suggestions, anyone?

Hi all, I just recently sold a Rackham Titan Dragon of Aarklash to a mate of mine. Unfortunately, it was damaged in transit. In order to claim damages from AusPost, I have to provide proof of valuation of the beast. Thing is, the value of the sculpt is determined by the community. There\'s...

Hi all, I\'ve still got plenty of stuff jammed in boxes. It is most definitely over time to clean out some of these, so I\'m putting up yet more stuff up for sale. All items are NIB unless specified, and are priced in USD. I can only accept Paypal, unless you\'re in Australia, in which case a...

Hi all, The house move is finally complete! Unfortunately, the new place is somewhat smaller than the old one, so I\'ve got to get rid of yet more stuff. All items are NIB unless specified, and are priced in USD. I can only accept Paypal, unless you\'re in Australia, in which case a bank...

Hi all, Started moving house, and it\'s taking an awful lot of effort. I\'ve got a week to complete the move, and I\'d rather not carry all this with me. To that effect, I\'ve added some new items and reduced the prices. All items are NIB unless specified, and are priced in USD. I can only...
