Spain and USA folks! Few questions about Scale75 goodies shipments.

[redkitana]

Hey, guys!
Who have ordered full Scale 75 set? How long does it normally takes to get to USA?
Hey Spain! I checked internet and it said your official holidays are 1st January and 6th January? Is that right? How fast is correos delivery?
Cant wait for my paints! So excited!

Hello redkitana!!

I am from Barcelona, our Correos system is a bit irregular.... I mean normally you get what you send in time, but some other times it delays from days to weeks without apparent reason. So take it with a pinch of salt.
And yes you got our official holidays correct so do not count those days as work days, in fact things at postal service are normally delayed between the 25th of december and the 6th of January because of the christmas extra work and the official holidays.

I haven't ordered from Scale, but I'm a fan of their sets, specially: metaln alchemy (steel), wood and leather, flesh set, blood and fire, and both of the NMM sets. You'll need a bit of time to get the hand of them but it's worth!!
They are super matt as everyone says, but they are also have translucent qualities, and if you glaze them you'll find they absorb pigment superfast because of that mattnes. I find that adding a drop or two of vallejo galzing medium helped me a lot to manipulate them.

Have fun with them and I hope they arrive you soon and fast!!

Thank you a tonn for your reply! I am impatiently waiting for the set.
And thank you for the advice about the paints! I will totally try glazing medium. I have a flesh set already and I didn't have much chance to work with them a lot, but pale skin works awesome for me for highlighting and bones!
