I built 5 or so of the Goblins. Liquid model glue (Tamiya extra fine) and experienced no problems. https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/79323/converting-wga-gobl...

@JTam Thanks for the great feedback and some brill ideas:)
@Battle Specter . Thanks for the idea:)
That looks pretty amazing. Painting and modeling is superb. Perhaps created recessed circles on the diorama base for the miniatures bases to fit in as opposed to removing the bases from the ...
@Charles Tottington What made Carrie Fisher so damned awesome back in the day was that she didn't play down the womanly aspects. She was definitely a woman -an absurdly attractive one at that- and ...
@Andreas Mayrhofer I took some pare drums from the DF line,a nd added them to the MED Machine guns to make them look more the part. @Grumpy Gnome The scene is pretty hilarious, and does make you go...
@Colin Brinkley Yeah, I have a few things in the fire right now. Can't spring on them.
I like the idea of the flag waving in the breeze from the back of the turret. So far, that looks pretty lit.
Hi Harold there is no need to wash our plastic. "Mold release" is not a thing. It's one of those myths leftover from ages gone by. I suspect you have excess dish detergent left over on them!

I have not had the problem you mention. I usually clean soft plastics like CMON and Reaper but I do not tend to clean HIPs sprues. While the spiders were challenging I did not find the gobli...
Smaller scales help with weapon ranges and more vehicle focused combat but I think it can also be a bit of a chicken and egg issue. Do companies make more 15mm WW3 because there are more 15mm WW3 p...
I don't have that kit. But I use plastic glue revell on everything, never fails to glue plastic parts or clog the nozzle. Never bothered to wash plastic miniatures before assembling (or pa...
Hi All, I recently purchased the classic fantasy Goblins. I washed them up in Dawn (washing up liquid) to remove the mold release, and starting assembly. Immediately, I noticed the plastic still f...
@jon gawne Great idea. Looks like the use of specialized tanker uniforms was relatively limited in WW1 as opposed to later. Some use of leather jackets, coveralls, and special helmets...
The bike reminds me how annoying it is BA doesn't let partisans take bikes.
@Mold I'm convinced that the relative popularity of going against the Ottomons is the presence of a clear "villain" who actually gets defeated in contrast to the stupid pointlessness of the rest of...

Had a good idea for the "Best Boys" "Imperial Conquests" kit: Dog sleds.
I dunno. It's got the look of folded cloth more than a pouch for me. Maybe a forage cap or a cape?
Honestly I think even Carrie Fisher is a better action female than Jen. Problem with a lot of modern actresses is that a lot of them will tend to ignore the contributions to their predecessors. Lik...
Death fields could also go with canid aliens for that last one. Classic Fantasy could likewise go there with Werewolves or Dog-people.
Good point about the vehicles. I was going to mention Xenos Rampant, but I also don't have it,so can't comment on its value.
I think as a rule, the WW3 crowd tend to favour the smaller scales. 15mm or smaller, due to the vehicles and weapon ranges. Flames of War went there a long time before Bolt Action did. Napoleonic ...
@Battle Specter yes I use the sniper rifles as medium machine guns and the intended MG's as SAW's. They are looking too small to my German MG3 loving eye. I Imagine the smaller ones to represent mo...
@GreenScorpion I actually did not know that Onlygames and MyMiniFactory were owned by the same company. That actually explains a lot. It's actually kinda cool that a 3d printing company would allow...

@Grumpy Gnome Not when she's so concieted as to ignore the better actresses and characters before she came along.
@Mark Dewis If Mondragon does, I won't complain. I like that he and WGA have teamed up to bring the Jagers and Stormtroopers back. Always good to see a good idea get a second chance at life.
@BS Kitbasher Since you got the reference, I won't be sending you to Detroit any time soon, for it is apparent you are executing your technique with feewing. :) All those sound pretty good. @BS Ki...
@Mark Dewis Stargrave does allow for some Jedi like characters but it does also lack vehicles rules though. I have not played the newly released Xenos Rampant but I have heard a lot of ...
@JTam I am guessing a fictional magazine pouch. It looks a little like a single cell Condor AK mag pouch.

A core based on Stalingrad and Leningrad defenders is my current guess. Thus the battered look. Za Rodina! (also a possible faction name...)
@Caratacus I didn't think of a particular ruleset. But OPR or some sci fi Version of Spectre or Bolt Action comes to mind
I used the Stormtroopers for a Star wars Clone Trooper conversion project (which you can find in the painting thread section), mostly to have a reason for scratch building a Gunship. At the ...
