No, that's a great deal. I remember about ten or eleven years ago,
Pegaso had a run of figures that were really poorly designed. I don't
know what the hell they were thinking, but they were sculpting the
parts in halves, like those old figures that came in Revell and
Monogram kits years ago, where the figures were cast as two single
piece sections, split from head to foot. They were frought with fit
problems. The poses were still classic
Pegaso though. Extreme poses, but without overdoing it. They only did
that for a year or so, and went back to the standard method.
I use a lot of Windsor Newton, but I have lots of other brands in my
inventory as well. Mine usually dry to the touch overnight. If there's
a lot of carrier though, it can take days. I use Humbrol for a lot of
things too. I've been using Humbrol for many years. I started using
Vellejo for base coats. Just can't get the hang of using them as my
primary medium though.
Honestly, I rarely use a brush smaller than a #1, though it's getting
harder to see the small stuff as I get older. An old club mate of mine
became nearsighted, and couldn't build models anymore. His long range
vision was still ship shape though, so he had his other hobby,
shooting, to fall back on.
I can't imagine not being able to make models.
