Getting ready for the Min is never easy, even before you have a number of personal difficulties to trip you up.  Nevertheless, in snatched moments, kilns have been fired, midnight oil has been burned and progress, of a sort, has been made.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here is a little bit of it.<\/font><\/p>\n

The fireplaces have come out rather well<\/font><\/p>\n

There are not many of each but there are some of each unpainted to paint and finish at a lower cost.  If you\u2019ve been used to painting resin miniatures, you\u2019ll love porcelain because it\u2019s porous.  Instead of repelling the paint and having to make ways to get it to stick, as you do with metal too, the porcelain just drinks the paint in.  It does the same with glue; all these things have been unglazed on the base or the back so they glue in very easily.<\/font><\/p>\n

there may even be<\/font><\/p>\n

Brodnax prints wallpapers, including the 5 new ones brilliant artist Jean Brodnax has designed specially for British miniaturists, some with a wonderful William Morris flavour, as you can see.  There will be a good selection of 48th scale wallpapers and some 24th scale on my stand, so if you\u2019ve been going up the walls looking for something to put on them, come and have a look.  I\u2019m right by the entrance.<\/font><\/p>\n
