He also tells people who complain about the ridiculous number of command figures in an Old Glory bag (16+ out of 50, including standard bearers that had no business being in there at all) to "Just do what I do, and just throw the excess away." Between him and Russ Dunaway insisting that the Blue Moon sculptor actually HAS seen a real horse (and presumably ignored whatever it was he saw), I was completely put off ever buying OG or BM figures ever againBuff Orpington wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2020 9:57 amIt seems an odd theme for a magazine that derives income from advertising new rules to take.goat major wrote: ↑Fri Aug 21, 2020 7:31 am Yeh but he says it in an entertaining way.

I am sure he has seen a horse, but he clearly identifies cavalry with large chaps mounted on chihuahuas.

Testors dullcote, all else is heresy. You can put a layer of glosscote underneath, if you must. And it[is ok to brush gloss varnish on leater and metals afterwards.
