Re: [DL] need some help with my minis




Everyone, I need some help with my mini painting.  Whoever can do so, please
go to the addresses below and give me some feedback:

These are two Call of Cthulhu minatures.
The structures in question are marked using red.  They seem like extra bits
left over from the casting process.  I'd like to get other people's opinions
on what they are and, if they are just extra bits, how I should try to get
rid of them.

>They're a casting line, know in the hobby biz as 'flash'. Trim it off
(carefully) with a sharp X-Acto knife, and file the rest down >with eiter a
hobby file, or even an emery board (it should be tough enough grain). Never
use sandpaper, it's too tough to >wield well.

The minis seem to be made of whatever the Deadlands minis are made of
(steel?), so my X-acto wouldn't exactly be sufficient.

concerned, score (carefully slice a groove) as close >to the figure as
possible, without being on the figure, and bend the superfullous (sp?) piece
back and forth until it snaps off. >Ouch.

with is Tom Baker.

How exactly do you mean "Mini boy?"
