Latest Acquisitions (2021)

Lot of paint and tufts there Andrew…..great stuff. I’ve been using Testors pots for wargames scenery and groundwork for ages. It also dry brushes well .

I got the idea of Mel Bose. I've even got a scrap of cardboard with as a quick swatch with a lot of the tester pots we got when we moved in and did the house up five years ago...quite a of which will prove useful at some point

The tufts are really good, I've found another supplier too called Gamer Grass who also do some really nice ones that are irregular shapes, like tim I use them all the time for my figures.

So following on from my books, there have been some more arrivals whilst I was away - this time to my mum's as I knew we'd be away at the time I placed the order.....in the long tradition of the forum I'm blaming other members for these....

......plus four purchases today which I have to hold my hand up too....

--------------------------------------

These I have to take responsibility for as three of them I plan to use for my North Africa diorama base.....much cheaper than specialist modelling paints and being tester pots for household paints will be pretty thick, so will hopefully go a long way......

These I'm blaming Tim Marlow and Mickc1440 for. When I suggested having a go at static grass they suggested tufts instead. I did have some but was running low and so followed Tim's recommendation on the brand.....first impressions are very good and at a very reasonable price too!! :smiling3: They also do some flowers and other things to and don't charge P&P either!

The one and only John Race will have to take responsibility for these after he recommended them, again some will be for my North Africa Dio but will no doubt come in useful for other builds!

That's right blame me:smiling3:, unfortunately there not flammable, sorry didn't I tell you :thumb2:
Hope they suit Andrew, well made and flow well, need a little thinners for ground cover .

Bought a clip-on macro lens for my phone.
It won't improve my modelling skills but at least I can make my little mistakes look really big....

Sorry bank account please forgive me:rolling:

Don’t add those mixing balls to any glass bottle: vigorous shaking could have it come apart in your hands. (No points for guessing how I know that.)

[monica]

what a great buy theses mixing balls are ,real wish i had done that with a lot of my paints,
as i have some many get hardish
real do suggest you do add them, ,
and not Jakko comment as well a nono :smiling:
