Here is the yahoo group official announcement. Letting you know the images are up, of the individual new figures, in the store. The new VFM German packs are in...
Well, my minis from the contest are here and I am really pleased with them. The buttock I had to resculpt did shrink a little during casting, but otherwise I...
Jim, may I ask, how many plastic models have been broken at your games? We talked about this a few month ago and unless you put on every flimsy detail, I find...
I have been checking into selling the Green sculpting stuff.(kneadatite) The blue and yellow make green stuff. I would sell the bar. (Two separate pieces one...
I've only bought it once and have never had to buy again. I don't use it very quickly at all and I've been fortunate to keep acquiring samples at the big...
Well, it was 3 years ago Aug 1st, I started this group. Syr Hobbs talked me into it. I will deal with him later today, when I see him :) Started with a flurry...
I bought half a pound at H-Con in 2005 and there still is enough left... storing it in the freezer also helps keep it as fresh as it was on day one. And I have...
Hi Scott, envelopes usually go a little faster... I guess customs officers tend to believe the value stated on a small envelope without ripping it open! :-\ ...
Hmm, and I always thought, that I had a stake in it´s creation, since I had asked you if you did not want to open one a few weeks before. Anyway... it is...
Happy 3 yr anniversary! Thanks to all of you who helped get this group started - nice bunch of folks with tons of experience and great ideas! Regards, Dean...
CONGRATS! Couldnt have happened to a nicer guy or group. Here is to many more years of Victory Force. Hey Jim....will you have a game at the upcoming Recruits?...
I've got some FJs that are not working out the way I wanted. The tones on the smocks is slightly off, and I don't want to lose any detail in repainting them....
I hear people use "simple green" They soak the figure in it. I have not tried it. I am sure someone, who has used it, will explain better. Thanks James Bland ...
Yes to Simple Green. I ususally let it sit a week before start to scrub with a tooth brush. Old enamel paints come off with scrubbing and some occasional...
... Thanks for the info. I have heard ATF, engine cleaner, etc, but I didn't want to mess with something overly caustic and that might eat the plastic bases....
Yeah, brake CLEANER also will burn the paint off almost instantly, but you will need a new plastic base. It stings your hands too. I used to soak them in brake...
I've never had a day do anything. It has always taken a week for the paint to start to lift up and fall off. I've gotten it to work on factory painted Corgis -...
I use Pine Sol to strip acrylic paint from metal minis. Makes 'em smell better too! You can soak the pieces from a few minutes to several days...depending on...
Some of you might have seen it last night when it made the rounds on 1:48th scale mailing lists (or today on TMP). The first pictures of the Tamiya M8 are out,...
Burkhard: That's great news! So the M8 is already released; wow, that was fast - from the intial announcements. Suppose the 250 will follow soon too. v/r,...
Great news. Glad to see they are seriously doing 1/48 scale vehicles. This may make Italeri wish they had went with 1/48 instead of 1/72 back in 1999. Now, if...
Hi Dean, I am not sure if the Greyhound is actually out yet. Tamiya USA ( http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/category.php?sub-id=10500 ) still lists it as coming...
