The Goodies Keep On Coming

Posted on April 13, 2016 by Tony

I cracked open two more new moulds today, both the hulls of 15mm vehicles. The metal turrets were in a different mould which Phil delivered at the end of last week, so after a very quick bit of resin casting … Continue reading →

Not Everything Always Goes to Plan !

Posted on April 11, 2016 by Tony
