Strip old figs back.... Sand blasting a bit extreme

Post by nigelemsen »

Anyo e got any sensible :p ways of stripping back old 15mms so they can be repainted. Figs have been painted in acrylics, with a spray citadel spray satin sealant.

Got a few old figs in bicornes/tricorns which will nicely provide a core for a revolitionary french list....

Brake fluid and then a good clean with a toothbrush works well, but don't leave plastic figures in for to long :D
