<raises hand> I can attest to that! Just joined recently and found a wealth of information/files... thanks to all the contibutors! Happy New Year all! Erik...
Howdy Lance, ... I asked the metal question as well. Marcin informed me that the casting is primarily an aluminum-zinc alloy. There are some other trace...
... 600thMiniatureAircraftWargaming@yahoogroups.com, "johnsiewenie" ... Blimey - no wonder it's a sod to work with - holds detail very well, but that can't be...
Hi, I, for one enjoy wargamming. Although air combat is a far cry from what I usually play. At the present I decided to give it a shot. So I am doing a bit...
Jean, Â Â I hear you on the $$$ thing. I would rather spend money on metal. Â Â I use a lot of acrylics from our local Hobby Lobby and Michael's. I mix to...
Hi, I used the Delta paints up to three months ago when I switch to the Vallejo. I do not know what happened to the delta paints but I have the same colour in...
Painting is a matter of taste (and time) I started off with monochrome aircraft using dry brushing and then a final highlight/shade before moving onto complex...
Everyone, Ad Astra Games is looking into developing a line of aircraft miniatures, to support the release of Birds of Prey: Air Combat in the Jet Age. I am...
Ehm, do you think its wise to start a miniatures line just for this? We have several good 1/300 and 1/600 manufacturers available, easy to purchase from (ok,...
I think its great, whilst I love most of the TD and OO miniatures there are many that fall well short. If Ad Astra were to produce high quality miniatures...
PaperTerrain.com has just released one of their new range of 3mm Buildings. Its the European Village Pack. The "shrunken kit includes a church, 55 other...
... This might better be answered by Ad Astra Games and their principal, Ken Burnside. (I'm a game designer and the Birds of Prey development is quite...
Having a choice of more aircraft in 1/600th, or other scales is never a bad thing. However, pricing will need to be considered, since many serviceable minis...
Happy New Year for everybody and little belated December releases (this time only WWII, but there will be some for Modern next month): WWH-654 PzKpfw IIIN -...
FYI, I did not find your survey overly painful. It was lacking in some of the jets I would like to see, but you generally had good coverage. I'll praise you...

... Hi, I cast in lead free pewter. This metal is both hard but workable for the castings that need to be cleaned up. Metals that contain lead would be to soft...
I have a spare 1/1250th HMS Invincible, white metal kit, unbuilt, for sale, if anyone is interested in it. All parts are included. It would make an impressive...
Hello all. I wanted to take the opportunity to welcome Paul Sulley from Tumbling Dice Miniatures to our fine group :). Its nice to have him both as a member...
As a related question: What is the melting temp of that metal? And what material do you use to make molds. I use RTV silicone for my resin stuff, but for...
... <snip> LOL, I guess I did the second one first! Went and did the one I did <i> not </i> do already. Honestly, I am very likely to buy planes not already...
I posted concerning what folks thought of gloss finishes on their miniatures. Lots of pro comments on matt but enough others mention that you should do what...
I use Testor's Dullcote and for semigloss (straight gloss is too brassy IMHO for 1/600 scale, I use Krylon Matte overspray. It is not truly matte, but leaves a...
Talked about these with a friend yesterday, painted them last night. 4 pictures http://s76.photobucket.com/albums/j17/wayswatcher/3mm%20Mustangs/ I have no...
... Nice stuff Johan. Silly question I'm sure - but how do you cut the rotors & propellers? By hand, or do you use something to make sure they are symmetrical?...
