- Interesting follow-up note: Some historical experts on Pathan culture maintain that Afghan men do not wear red, as the color red is seen as a woman’s color. Scott’s red turban wearing Afghan warlord may in fact be a bit of a dandy!

Hi, You discussed Renaissance Inks basing gels. I haven’t seen them before, but they sound very similar to the Liquitex or Golden gels that you can get from Michaels, Dick Blick or any other art supply store. They come in quite a range of gritiness levels & are less expensive that Renaissance Inks products. The gels I found on DickBlick.com were 1/2 the price.
& for the ultra-cheap like me, I use standard concrete patch for basing. It dries hard, doesn’t shrink, easy to mix paint into, & extremely cheap. It was about $5 for a gallon tub I think.

Yayyy WAYWO!!!! Good to have you back. The Blue Moon Aliens are very tempting. If the budget allows, I may pick some up this year. I hope Chaos on Cronos does well. Are there any battle reports online?

No battle reports that I know of, but you might try asking the folks at our Yahoo Group:

You’ll need to join, but I promise I’ll approve the request quickly. Thanks!

Make that “flocking”. Jeez, if I could type I’d be dangerous!
