…. TO HELP YOU MAKE BETTER MINIATURES.

"Figure modelling has always been popular, whether the subjects are fact or fantasy. The US publication Amazing Figure Modeler has been produced for many years, and I reckon that a new British magazine could well emulate the success of its US cousin.

The first issue of Fantasy Figures International (FFI) does basically what it says on the tin, featuring a cross-section of articles that deal with various aspects of figure modelling.

Shouldn't they focus on FANTASY? grin

Well, I've taken a punt on issue 2 to see if it merits adding to my magazine collection (I do both historical/fantasy).
