Dune part 2

 Went to see Dune part 2 this afternoon. What did you think of it?

Resins to be cheerful

 Unpacked these 28mm recruits for East Tradgardland. They are traditional types to fight alongside the troops in Potemkin uniforms.

Nice figures in different poses with enough detail but not too much. Note The Assualt Group figure , bottom right, for comparison.

Receipt that came with them to show you where I got them and what I paid.
A couple of illustrations for inspiration…

Semi Flat Scouts etc

 Saw these on eBay and snapped them up quite reasonably. I was charmed by the animation of the Scouts and how full of character they were-



Anyone know the make? I have never seen figures like these before for sale.
Also these came in the same lot. Quite nice, useful but not as unusual-

Mold 2

 Photos of affected bases-



Wish I had used pennies or plastic.

MOLD !

 Just back from the shed looking out some figures. I discovered the mdf bases have got some mold on them. What is the best way to stabilise this? Do I coat in pva, varnish or what? I really don’t want to rebase. 

Magazine

 Lovely to see Tidders writing in  this month’s Miniature Wargames ( April 2024) -


Not to mention photos of his excellent armies.

I was also pleased to see this advert -


Excellent rules which have given me good games over the years.

Mould question

 This mould of a semi flat tank was made for me. The maker also cast up some tanks for me from it.


I fancy making some more . What do you suggest using ? He didn’t use metal with this mould btw.
