    Would you buy prepainted minis on ebay

    One of the best paint strippers I've found is Castrol Super Clean. Purple stuff, biodegradable. Soak for 8-10 hours, and take it out and paint comes off in one huge slough. It will dry the heck out of your hands, though, so wear gloves. Safe on metal and plastic, and even the few resins I've...

    Latest News on A Call to Arms: Star Fleet

    Unfortunate. I do understand the attempt to try to get back on track, but I really am curious as to whether or not the line will go "full resin" after the backlog is dealt with. Particularly, since I ordered through LGS ages and ages ago, I'm wondering what they're going to wind up getting. If...

    Airbrushes and miniatures

    Hey there! I've been using an airbrush for about a year and a half, and did a lot of research before getting one, so maybe I can offer a little bit of help. I don't think I'd qualify myself as an "expert," but "somewhat experienced." ;) The compressor is probably on the "ok" level, though it...

    Heck, I plan on buying one of each fleet box. What? No... I don't have an addiction... :P
