Figures

Figures are not really my primary interest, although this has been different in the past. Consequently, this will not be the most active part of the site.
When compared to aircraft and such, figures have one very big advantage: as building progresses it gets easier to put them back into their boxes, whereas aircraft have the habit of sprouting wings and legs, and refusing to fold them when it is time to go back into storage.

1/35 and 54mm post 19th century military figures, either in 1/35, 1/32 or 54mm scales.

Some light armour and vehicles may also show up here.

25mm fantasy

I have quite a collection of these from the 1990s, most still unpainted. I don't expect to buy any more, but occasionally one from the ols stash will get painted, and some may end up being grouped into little vignettes. Some dragons and other monsters in the same scale are also in the pile.

2004-12-19 Individual fantasy miniatures. No construction involved, just paint, and maybe the occasional bit of background info.

large scale fantasy and SF figures

Good quality larger scale fantasy figures used to be hard to find and ever harder to pay for, but this has changed a bit over the last decades, and has become a thing of the past with the appearance of 3D printers and cheaply downloadable disigns for these figures.
At this time, I've had a printer for only a few months, and already there is a growing pile of raw prints lying around. One day I'll find a way to keep control of the stash..

Miscellaneous

I so hate to classify anything as 'miscellaneous', because once you have anything under that classification, the list tends to grow and grow completely out of control. Still, there are some projects that otherwise defy classification..
