The miniatures look really nice, but they deserve higher resolution photos. Those pictures are really small. Show off more! - Ix |

Thanks to all for your kind comments. dBerczerk: That would be really cool but dangerous I've been thinking with the idea of 1/32 Napoleonic armies and I'm already commited hoarding things in WW2 in 1/35. Yellow admiral: I follow your advice and set up the pictures in a bigger format, I think that my painting style don't stand a close up, digital camera are too precise and define ;D |

PeloBourbon -- I have the HaT Industrie 1/32 American Civil War zouaves and their Seven Years War Prussian infantry and really like them. HaT produces so many interesting sets in 1/72 that I wish they'd also release in 1/32. |

dBerczerk- I made some figures for 1870-71 FPW and even a few bases of ACW in 54mm with IMex and Armies in Plastic and I stopped (I will post a few pictures). You need a lot of space for the storage, figures, terrain, an issue worsened since I'm the only one with the 54mm fever between my wargaming buddies and have to do both sides to play a game. I keep assembling the 1/35 WW2 and I already don't know where I will put them :D "HaT produces so many interesting sets in 1/72 that I wish they'd also release in 1/32." I totally agree and they're affordable. What's your solution for the 54mm storage? Thank you |

I like your 1/72 figs. Nicely done! I also do 1/72 in a large way! It's my favorite scale.
I also do 54mm 1/32 gaming. Long plastic storage bins work for vehicles, figures in boxes and some buildings. Smaller ones can be used for a large variety of things. Thanks John |

PeloBourbon -- I glue steel fender washers to the bases of my painted 1/32 plastic figures and store them in plastic Clear View 60cm x 40cm storage boxes lined with magnetic tape. |

John, dBerczerk, Thanks to both for the hints. I'm already using a similar option too with tupperwares. Cheers Alberto |

You've done a great job, there …  ! I might have to get some of those Spanish! Phil |

Yesthatphil – thank you for your nice comment. Hat have done a good work with those sets with grenadiers, line and light infantry. We only can wish to see cavalry, artillery. The Emhar box is also interesting with a mounted officerand they look compatible.

Very nice indeed. The HAT figures in my opinion are very ‘Perry' and make a superb formation en masse. My problem was flash and getting the paint to stick, especially on the bayonets. Best wishes, Chris |
